Canada's THE WRING's New Video “Steelier” Takes You On A Visual Space Odyssey


Canada’s The Wring released the new album“The Wring² Project Cipher” recently on May 28th. Founded by guitarist Don Dewulf, the studio project’s full length has something for everyone across the spectrums of classic heavy metal to progressive rock and features a lineup of guests that includes Marc Bonilla (Keith Emerson Band, California Transit Authority, Glenn Hughes), Bryan Beller (Joe Satriani, The Aristocrats, Dethklok, Steve Vai), Thomas Lang (Robert Fripp, Peter Gabriel, Robbie Williams), Jason Henrie, and Jason Sadites.

“The Wring² Project Cipher” is seven songs with one instrumental and six vocal tracks and is highly recommended for fans of Rush, Fates Warning, Dream Theater, and The Dead Daisies.

Dewulf adds about full length:

“I love prog music, but it can be a challenging listening task. I wanted to combine the interesting bits of prog with a strong melody and composition. You can rock out or geek out to this."

Continuing to support the album's reach to new fans, the band has put together a visual space odyssey in the form of a music video for the record's opening track "Steelier", which was inspired by one of Dewulf's influences, Steely Dan. 

"This song started with the pre-chorus - a very jazzy progression in the spirit of Steely Dan.  I named the rough early version Steelier in that context. When the lyrics came later, the story is about perseverance and wonder in the face of adversity so I thought the demo name was appropriate. The chorus is in odd time, but fits perfectly, something I love to do."

The music video "Steelier" was created by Jason Henrie using the digital artwork of Don Mupasi (https://instagram.com/visualdon)  and can be watched and listened to via its premiere on Sonic Perspectives HERE.
