American rock band Little King has announced the details of their upcoming eighth studio album, Lente Viviente, due for release in September 2025. The new record features seven tracks.

The lineup of The Little King studio has changed since their last release in 2019. They have added drummer Tony Bojorquez from San Carlos, Mexico, to their team. Bassist and Cellist  David Hamilton, who contributed cello on Amuse De Q (2021) and Occam’s Foil (2019), has played with the band live in recent years. Founding member Ryan Rosoff returns on guitar and vocals, and  Curfew Vocalist Laura Sadie Bette adds backing vocals.

Lente Viviente (Spanish for “Living Lens,” a play on Rosoff’s Video Memoir production company, LivingLens Memoirs). The album explores themes of memory and presence, perception and truth. The songs reflect on various topics, including childhood and enduring friendship in tracks like “Catch and Release” and “Dawn Villa.” They also delve into immigration and identity in “Who’s Illegal?”, as well as ageing and addiction in “Pass Through Filters.” Additionally, the album examines the relationship between strength and vulnerability in “Kindness for Weakness.” 


At its core, the album poses questions about how we view ourselves—and one another—through the ever-changing lens of time, emotion, and experience. With dynamic arrangements and textured performances, Lente Viviente presents both personal and universal themes, offering an honest portrayal of life’s sharp edges and soft light.


Lente Viviente was recorded from April to June 2025 at Cimamusic in Tucson, AZ, by Ricky Wascher Tavares, marking it as the first Little King record to be tracked outside of Texas. The album is being mixed at Command Space Audio in Los Angeles by Daniel Salcido, who also mixed 'Amuse De Q' in 2021, as well as the recent singles “Amber Waves GoodBye” and “Silver Tongue” (both released in 2023). The artwork for the album is being created by Savannah Maher.

More updates are coming soon, including the release date of the first single, videos, interviews, and behind-the-scenes footage from the making of Lente Viviente. Stay tuned to all social media @littlekingtunes (FB, IG, YouTube) and www.littlekingtunes.com for more info, lyrics, and song clips.


Little King was formed in 1996 by guitarist/songwriter Ryan Rossoff, following his departure as guitarist for Tweed Quickly. Little King has released eight studio albums, one EP, and several singles. They have toured extensively across the United States and have received significant airplay. In addition to his music career, Ryan Rossoff operates his own production company, Little King Productions, which covers print, bookings, management, and radio.

REVIEW: OUR NORTH-EVERYONE FOR THEMSELVES

-
Image
  Words by Anselm Anderson British heavyweights Our North released their latest EP, Everyone for Themselves, last week. The EP consists of six tracks. Originating from Sheffield, England, this quintet has built a following over the past six years, earning praise and drawing comparisons to local favourites Bring Me The Horizon. This is understandable, as their sound captures the same energy and intensity, blending hip-hop verses with trap beats. They have developed a distinctive musical style, which continues to gain momentum. The band's sound combines hypnotic beats, visceral vocals and sonically enhanced guitars, which is described as metalcore. The theme of the album captures how people prioritise self-interest over forming empathetic relationships and showing community. Photo courtesy of San PR The album's sense of urgency effectively conveys the claustrophobic and frustrating effects these traits have on both the individual and society. The opener "Choked to Death...
