Norwegian virtuoso, Thomas Carlsen, announces new album “Clockwork Sky” and drops, new single, melodic rocker, “One With The Storm.”

“One with the Storm” is the third and last single off “Clockwork Sky”, the sophomore LP from Thomas Carlsen’s Transmission. The single brings back the glory days of the early 90’s in the Queensryche “Empire” and classic Dokken vein. This one is certain to excite the melodic hard rock fans and please the power rockers as well.

Carlsen states: “One with the Storm is my take on recapturing that special 80s power ballad melancholy. It’s the first Transmission tune that features a synthesizer, and it only feels natural when we’re dealing with this particular century in Heavy Metal history!” Featured on the new single is Greek vocalist Mike Livas, who delivers a breathtaking performance in the vein of Geoff Tate and Michael Kiske.
 
“Clockwork Sky”, the new album, is out June 6th on Compact Disc and all streaming services. It features four vocalists from around the world, and Thomas Carlsen on all instruments. The singles, “Midnight Queen”, “Thunderbird” and “One with the Storm” give listeners a look into the different soundscapes explored on the album, but Carlsen promises a couple of surprises to be found on the full release: “It was hard to decide on the singles, because so many of the tracks have that potential. The only thing left to do now is unleash the entire thing on the world. I have never been this stoked about a release before!”
