Rory Conder - (Lunar Mantra)

May 23, 2023

LUNAR MANTRA are a black metal trio coming from the city of Glasgow in Scotland and they have been active now since 2013. In 2015, they released their first EP named GENESIS which was certainly an album full of diversity with instrumentation, experimental processes and produced very well as there is an ambient feel to this EP. They also released a single called DROLMẨ in 2017, but they came back with another EP called PSYCHOSOMATIKA released through the record label INVICTUS PRODUCTIONS (based in Dublin, Ireland). The album was scheduled to be released in 2020 but due to the Covid-19 pandemic that had swept through the world by storm, the band had to delay this until 2021. Since their last release of course, I have now had the chance to talk to Rory Conder, who is their guitarist and very much a big part of the band's direction and I am asking him how the band got through Covid-19, whether they have any new music on the way, what inspired the band to create their music and where they are now in terms of their music as to the next step for LUNAR MANTRA.

Markus Fortunato - (Fortunato)

May 19, 2023

FORTUNATO are a band bringing three very talented musicians from Lyon in France, they are defined as a neoclassical heavy metal band. As they incorporate melodic rock and keyboard making them a very exciting band to watch out for. Up until 2021, they have released two albums, LIBERTYin 2012 and RESTLESS FIRE in 2015. They brought us a third album fresh off the press called INSURGENCY which I had the pleasure of reviewing as it certainly left me with a great impression of what this band is all about. I am of course surprised that this album was out two years ago as the band have managed to surpass the long period of Covid-19, the band are led by bassist MARKUS FORTUNATO followed by guitarist SEBASTIEN VALLEE as both musicians are still apart of the band.

So it is with great pleasure now that two years since their previous album, they are back of course with a brand new album titled FROM HIGH ABOVE in the midst of 2023, as we approach summer now. As the lineup is led with MARKUS and SEBASTIEN as before, they are now joined by drummer SLY CONTE, second guitarist ALEX FACCINETTO and keyboard player STÉPHANE SOULIER. I can now say that I got the opportunity to chat with MARKUS as to how the band got together, about their previous albums and what there is to look forward to now in their new album which is out now this month.
