We Stood Like Kings are an instrumental rock band formed in 2011 in Brussels, Belgium. They have released five full-length albums through the German label Kapitän Platte. Their purely instrumental music combines elements of post-rock, neoclassical rock, progressive rock with a prominent use of the piano. Their approach consists of mixing their own music with other art forms: silent cinema and classical music. In 2014, the band released their first album BERLIN 1927, conceived as a new score for the 1927 German silent documentary Berlin: Symphony of a Metropolis by Walther Ruttmann. Amongst others, the band performed the project at Dunk!festival in Zottegem, Belgium, RITCS School of Arts in Brussels, Belgium, Theater Aan Zee in Ostende, Belgium. “The contemplative dips and climactic surges of post-rock enhance the viewing experience.”.
