Zilqy has announced that from their debut EP “Vacant Throne” (to be released on Wednesday, November 5), the Lead Track “Carry On” will be available worldwide as an advance digital release on Wednesday, October 22, via BLOOD BLAST — the global platform specializing in independent metal, hardcore, punk, and extreme music. BLOOD BLAST is powered through the collaboration of Nuclear Blast, the world’s largest record label for extreme music and home to internationally renowned metal artists, and Believe, a global leader in digital music distribution.

Starting today, both the advance release track “Carry On” and the debut EP “Vacant Throne” are available for Pre-Add on Apple Music and Pre-Save on Spotify. By registering, the songs will be automatically added to listeners’ libraries as soon as they are released. To mark the upcoming release, the band has also shared a special video message.

“Carry On”, which was also featured in the teaser video unveiled at the band’s launch, was the very first song Zilqy created together — the spark that gave birth to the band. The track dynamically contrasts the structural beauty of modern metal with melodic yet catchy hooks. It embodies Zilqy’s essence, symbolizing their challenge to create a new kind of metal sound by fusing global-standard sonic approaches with the distinctively Japanese melodic sense that defines artists from Japan.

Zilqy has finally revealed themselves and begun taking their first steps toward shaking the world.
