CHTHONIC Interviewed by BLOODSTOCK RADIO (Video)

Jeff Leach of Bloodstock Radio conducted an interview with Taiwanese metallers CHTHONIC at this year's Download festival, which took place June 14-16 at Donington Park in Leicestershire, United Kingdom. You can now watch the chat below.

CHTHONIC's seventh album, "Bú-Tik", was recorded at Sweden's Sweetspot Studio by producer Rickard Bengtsson, who also worked on 2011's critically lauded "Takasago Army" full-length and finds the band sharpening their signature brand of self-dubbed symphonic "orient metal."

"Bú-Tik" was released in North America via Spinefarm Records in the U.S. digitally on June 18 and on CD on June 25.

With "Bú-Tik", CHTHONIC continue their mission to build awareness of the myths of Taiwan and the tragic events in their country's history. Centered around the story of the 228 Massacre, the Bú-Tik Palace and the Mirror Of Retribution, "Bú-Tik" highlights what bassist Doris Yeh describes as "righteous violence, justifiable defense, and the armed spirits!"
