CHTHONIC Frontman To Guest On 'The Governor's Ball'

September 13, 2007

Vocalist Freddy Lim of Taiwanese metal sensation CHTHONIC will be the featured guest on "The Governor's Ball" this Saturday, September 15 at 3:00 p.m. EST. Tune in at this location to hear the show.

CHTHONIC will team up with Finnish "heroic folk metal" warriors ENSIFERUM for a fall European tour.

In concert, CHTHONIC (pronounced "THON-ick") will continues to perform its tour's theme song, "UNlimited Taiwan", written and recorded this spring "to emphasize the 'UNlimited' potential of Taiwan and the Taiwanese people," Lim says. Like the tour — which kicked off in Taipei earlier this summer following the international re-release of 2002's "Relentless Recurrence" and last year's "A Decade On The Throne" two-CD/DVD live set — the song was named to protest how the United Nations (UN) limits Taiwan's full participation as an independent country. The Washington Post and the International Herald Tribune, among others, have recently devoted lengthy features to the message behind the tour.

Good News Broadcast recently spoke to vocalist Freddy Lim of the Taiwanese black metal band CHTHONIC about Taiwan and the Republic of China's representation in the United Nations. Watch the interview below.
