Embassy of Silence Interview
Performed in March 2011 via Skype
It’s a lovely thing when an album actually lives up to its hype -- able to both catch and hold one’s attention, despite a steady onslaught of new releases. Euphorialight, the debut album by Finnish rock/metal sextet Embassy of Silence, accomplishes that in spades. From the sly, cheeky "I Ride Alone" to the dark, swelling chorus of "Passion and Savagery" to the reggae-inflected "Baron Samedi," there is not an ounce of filler on the album. Two tracks, "I Ride Alone" and "The Mercury Lamp," are available as free downloads from Embassy of Silence’s ReverbNation page.
Sonic Cathedral’s Robin Stryker caught up via Skype with kaleidoscope-haired chanteuse, Ines Lukkanen. Dive in to find out what happens when two geeks get together without proper adult supervision. Little known fact: Ines does a quite convincing Chewbacca imitation.
