KIMAERA finished producing their fourth studio album IMPERIVM, mastered by none other than Maor Appelbaum and consisting of 8 tracks, which they continue to reject being defined by boundaries.
Despite hailing from one of the most war-torn regions in the world in which they have had to overcome ongoing political, economic and security hurdles, KIMAERA refuses to be seen simply through the prism of the current conflict.
They have instead chosen to engage with their country’s ancient history through an original take: IMPERIVM’s theme is inspired by Ancient Roman history, with Lebanon having been part of the Roman Empire with all its power, brutality and majesty. The Middle Eastern ethnic instruments whose sound infuses the album also have their origins in Ancient Rome, giving the album a distinct aural mark. IMPERIVM is set to be released on the 15th of March, the date when the great Jvlivs Caesar was assassinated in 44 BC, also known as THE IDES OF MARCH.
