BANDS SHOULD PLAY WHAT THEY'RE ABLE TO PLAY , NOT WHAT THEY'RE ABLE TO PROGRAM
|

Hi!!!
Can you introduce "Oracle Sun"....The band was formed 3 years
ago...is it true? Hi,
I’m Alessandro, bass player. Yes, it’s true, the band was formed
in 2002. The idea started by Emi Manuguerra ( guitars) and Val Shieldon
(vocals), who called Frank Andiver, and then me and Fabrizio. This
debut album show us mature compositions ...Who's the main composer? Actually
there are not main composers, we wrote together, during our rehearsals.
You can perceive it by the different moods and grooves that are in every
songs… I mean, there could be a thrash riff and soon after an AOR
refrain… Everybody suggested the building of the song! Oracle
Sun are formed by important names of metal scene...do you think to create
a new important Of
course, we hope to become an important band; we are working for live
shows, now, and we’ll make some. This will not be a
“studio-project”, we’ll continue in every possible way. Which
are the best songs of this album in your opinion? That
damned question J!
How can I tell you which is the best of my sons?!? I could only say
which are the ones I like to play: Changes, Lost in Silence and
Everlasting are very funny to play! Italy
is the "land of Power-Progressive Metal", do you agree? Which
are your favourite bands? Well,
I don’t quite like labels… Nobody begins to play in a band choosing
the riffs and refrains by saying: this is more thrash than power, this
melody is more hard rock than thrash… I mean: it’s still metal!
We’ve all grown up with metal, and we are full of “inputs” and have
a lot of influences! Bands should play what they’re able to play, not
what they’re able to program! And
further, the prog played by Dream Theater or Sieges Even it’s the same
of Jethro Tull or King Crimson’s one? In
answer of the second part of the question I’d say Labyrinth, Vision
Divine, Time Machine; That, obviously, concerning metal bands! Tell
me something about Scarlet Records...How are the relationships with the
label? Scarlet
Records it’s a very good label! They work very hard for every artist
they have, and work Are
you completely satisfied of this album? Yes,
of course! We’re very satisfied from the recordings ‘till the mixing
sessions! Three
adjectives to describe your music...... Ehi!
YOU are the reviewer J!!!
Ok, let me see… airy, large, spontaneous. Are
you already writing new songs? Yes,
we are writing for the new album and we have a bunch of new songs, still
waiting to be arranged! The
Game of the Tower is our usual final question for the bands we interview
for the first time....You're on a high tower and there are
3 bands with you.... Ehi, we are all living it the neighborhood! People of the two bands I let fall could seek me! (and destroy J) Well, if I don’t have a chance… I will let fall Labyrinth and Secret Sphere, because I know people in Vision Divine! Maybe someone else of the band would have saved another one…
Thank you a lot guys! Bye Salvo, thank you for the chance you give us! Stay Metal
