Episode 44: Royal Thunder’s Mlny Parsonz Talks New Album ‘Rebuilding The Mountain’-SLIS Podcast

Royal Thunder are back with Rebuilding The Mountain, their first album in 5 years, out June 16th via Spinefarm.

Like past efforts including Wick and Crooked Doors, it sees the group continue their unique marriage of classic rock and 90’s alternative with a contemporary edge. It also marks the return of drummer Evan DiPrima, who left the band in 2018.

It’s also one of their most direct and immediate efforts, reflecting the group’s recent sobriety and renewed focus of their musical vision. And front and center is Mlny Parsonz, the powerhouse vocalist with an inimitable voice and delivery that is alternately fierce and introspective.

In today’s interview, I speak to Parsonz about the band’s personal struggles during the pandemic, how conquering her demons rejuvenated her dedication to Royal Thunder, how the group’s songwriting process has changed, reuniting with DiPrima and much more.

Be sure to stick around afterwards, where I’ll be playing the song Cut off the new album.
