"Blue", the new video from the Atlanta, Georgia-based quartet ROYAL THUNDER, can be seen below. The song comes off the female-fronted act's debut album, "CVI", which came out last spring via Relapse Records. Spin described the CD as a "stunning breakthrough," Revolver called the album "essential" and Decibel magazine placed singer Mlny Parsonz on the cover of their inaugural "Women In Metal" issue.

The "Blue" clip comes as news of the band's first European tour is confirmed. ROYAL THUNDER will perform a handful of mid-April dates with PALLBEARER including a stop at Roadburn on April 18. The band also kicks off a month of North American dates, joining ENSLAVED and PALLBEARER for a trek that launches on January 30 at Underground Arts in Philadelphia.

"This is a long-awaited tour for both ROYAL THUNDER and the many European fans who have reached out to us over the past couple of years," said singer/guitar player Mlny Parsonz. "Roadburn is a wild dream come true. Anyone I have talked to that has played Roadburn always has exciting and positive feedback on the festival. Europe or Bust! Here we come!"
