SATYRICON: New Video Interview With SATYR, FROST Available
June 24, 2008MetalKult.com has just posted a 19-clip video interview with SATYRICON's Satyr and Frost.
The footage was captured when MetalKult visited Norway last March, and spent time at SATYRICON's private studios. After an extensive gear tour, frontman Satyr and drummer Frost sat down for an in-depth question-and-answer session.
In the interview the pair discusses a wide range of topics, including the progression of SATYRICON's sound from traditional black metal to more straightforward rock, collaborating with ZYKLON/ex-EMPEROR guitarist Samoth and THORNS, and how "SATYRICON has always been proudly a part of Norwegian black metal" even though Satyr wasn't interested in doing what MAYHEM's Euronymous expected of him. SATYRICON also discuss the resolution of Frost's visa troubles and their plans for recording their new full-length in Los Angeles.

SATYRICON's new album will be released on November 3 via Roadrunner Records. The CD is being recorded at Sound City studios in Van Nuys, California, where METALLICA recently recorded its forthcoming LP.
As previously reported, SATYRICON has recruited two new members for its live shows. The rhythm guitar is now handled by French axeman Gildas Le Pape, who has been playing black and thrash metal, as well as jazz, for quite a few years. The band's new touring bassist is Victor Brandt (Sweden) from the death metal band DOMINION and TOTALT JVLA MRKER. Victor Brandt can also be heard on the new SATYRICON EP "My Skin Is Cold".
A previously unreleased SATYRICON song, "My Skin Is Cold", is included on the band's new EP of the same name, which was issued on June 2 in most of Europe.
"My Skin Is Cold" was released as a seven-inch gatefold vinyl single including a five-track CD. This is the only physical version of the EP and the packaging is said to be "truly one of a kind!"
The EP was relased via Roadrunner Records worldwide, except in Norway, where it came out through SATYRICON's new partner, Indie Recordings.
