Avantgarde Metal trio Imperial Triumphant has released a new single covering Wayne Shorter’s “Nefertiti”. The fifth, and final, song in a series of covers, “Nefertiti” is accompanied by a video directed and edited by Brendan McGowan, produced by Vile Luxe Studios.

Steve Blanco (bass) comments:

Occasionally in any art form there are works that stand out and define an epoch. A great work that is the apex and culmination of the very history it was built upon. To say that the late 1960’s Miles Davis Quintet was part of such a moment is no understatement. The hand of time reveals. Humanity’s voice can be heard deep within the mystery. Here is our humble albeit a bit experimental homage to one of our favorite pieces of music. ‘Nefertiti’, to be heard now and through the ages.
