| Formed by international college students, the band’s journey began with their 2013 debut EP ‘Awake,’ followed by their first LP ‘Mirrors for a Prince’ in 2014 and the ‘Voyager’ EP in 2016. After extensive touring across the USA and Europe, including a debut at Euroblast Festival in 2019, WINGS DENIED have honed their craft and expanded their fan base. In 2022, their single “Plastic Tears” reached new audiences when featured in the game Fortnite.
‘Just The Basics’ is set to redefine progressive rock as a groundbreaking project showcasing the band’s versatility with nine tracks spanning nine distinct genres. Produced by industry veteran Joel Hamilton (Highly Suspect, Bonobo), the album represents WINGS DENIED’s most ambitious work to date.
The album challenges traditional genre boundaries, offering listeners a diverse sonic journey. From the hard-hitting “Black Legend” to the emotive “Pariah” and the introspective “Saudade,” each single released so far hints at the album’s eclectic nature. This bold approach highlights the band’s musical prowess and commitment to pushing creative limits.
As WINGS DENIED continues to evolve, ‘Just The Basics’ stands as a testament to their growth, promising an auditory experience that defies expectations and cements their place in the vanguard of modern progressive music.
CD and Vinyl pre-orders for ‘Just The Basics,’ as well as all new merch, are available at wingsdenied.com.
