Radiant Thought feat. Baard Kolstad premieres debut album Transcendence

The progressive metal band Radiant Thought will release the debut album “Transcendence” on November 7 independently. The work includes 12 songs for almost 48 minutes of deep musical experience and sees the participation of the drummer Baard Kolstad from Leprous on all tracks!

Radiant Thought’s debut album represents years of creative exploration and dedication. It’s an introduction to the project’s vision: music created to evoke emotion, curiosity, and connection. The album’s concept explores personal growth, resilience, and self-discovery – a journey through cycles of struggle and renewal.
