Support Kostas' Dream & Be Part Of Making Black Kaiser Album

Help Bring Black Kaiser's Debut Album Aelkīmiyā to Life

"From Ali — supporting my husband Kostas’s dream"

Hi, I’m Ali, and I’m creating this campaign for my husband Kostas, the heart and soul behind the heavy rock band "Black Kaiser".

I’ve seen Kostas spend countless hours, days, and years crafting this album — writing every lyric, every riff, producing everything from the ground up. It hasn’t been an easy road. In August 2024, he was in a car accident while working, which cost him his job. Since then, he’s been working 10-hour shifts to raise money for this project — all while going through physical therapy, dealing with exhaustion, and fighting through depression.

And still… he wakes up every morning thinking about the band. About his new album. Because music is his life.

Now, we’re asking for your help to bring this album to the world.

## About the Album: "Aelkīmiyā"

"Aelkīmiyā" (from the ancient word for alchemy) is a heavy, emotional rock album with progressive elements — inspired by Black Sabbath, Tool, Metallica, Alice In Chains, and Mastodon.

This is Kostas’s most personal work to date. After his former band Heritage broke up in Greece, he started from scratch — teaching himself to sing, writing every song, and building this vision alone.

The lyrics are his own story — a journey through pain, growth, and transformation.

## Who’s Involved

- Special guest on Drums: the one and only "Fotis Benardo" (SixForNine, Nightrage, Nightfall)

- Guitar: "Nikos Stasinos", Kostas’s longtime friend and former bandmate from Heritage

- ️Mixing & ️Mastering: We're talking with some legendary engineers here in Los Angeles. Stay Tuned ;-)

These incredible musicians and producers believe in the music — and in Kostas.

## From the Heart

I’ve watched Kostas give everything he has for this music. Even after the accident, the long hours, and the pain, he never gave up on this album.

If you believe in heavy, real, soulful music — and want to support a truly independent artist — please consider donating or sharing this campaign.

Let’s make "Aelkīmiyā" a reality.

With love,

Ali & Kostas
