CEREBRUM – Interview with Apollon & Mike
The Greeks CEREBRUM are a new addition to technical death metal waters. The band, formed in 2004, has released its debut album “Spectral Extravagance” last year, bringing thus some very needed fresh air into this crowded genre. Not only influenced by metal music, CEREBRUM are not afraid to show us their way of perception of music and life. The singer Apollon Zygomalas and guitarist Mike Papadopoulos were so kind as to answer few my questions.

CHARRED WALLS OF THE DAMNED – Interview with drummer Richard Christy
Listeners of the HOWARD STERN show know Richard Christy as the prankster interviewer who took over Stuttering Johns job. Those of the metal world know Christy as the dynamic drummer who came out of nowhere to help Chuck Schuldiner complete the final DEATH album, and then man the kit for Chucks power metal group, CONTROL DENIED. Since the untimely death of Schuldiner, Christy played on a couple of ICED EARTH albums before leaving the music biz for the STERN show.
After a five-year hiatus from recording metal, Christy called up a few friends to form a new band, CHARRED WALLS OF THE DAMNED. CHARRED is a metal fans wet dream, featuring a star-studded lineup consisting of ex-JUDAS PRIEST howler Tim Ripper Owens and bass player extraordinaire Steve DiGiorgio. Both artists played with Christy in ICED EARTH. Christy chose Jason Suecof as the groups guitarist. Better known as the producer of famous modern metal acts such as TRIVIUM, Suecof delivers pure guitar shred as well as recording and producing CHARRED WALLS OF THE DAMNED.
On the verge of his first release in over a half decade, an excited Christy called Metal Centre to give us the low down on his return and the making of what will prove one of the great albums in 2010.
