“The “Dark Asylum” definitely has a rock opera vibe” — interview with Thomas Youngblood of Kamelot

Author Julia Suloinen - 20.8.2026

Symphonic-progressive-power-metal legends Kamelot is one of those bands that has the power to create its own universes. One of the finest examples is about to be released soon enough, on the 28th of August, via Napalm Records, and will carry the name ‘Dark Asylum”.

Chaoszine shares a thoughtful chat with the Kamelot’s founder member and mastermind Thomas Youngblood, and found out a lot about the concept of the album, dark fantasy, alchemy and madness and story behind a track where Tommy doesn’t sing any part at all.
