SONIC SYNDICATE Bassist Makes 'Brilliant Recovery' After Being Injured During Video Shoot

August 5, 2010

Bassist Karin Axelsson of the Swedish/British modern metallers SONIC SYNDICATE "has made a brilliant recovery and is back on her feet with only mild headaches" after being "seriously injured" during the filming of the band's new video, "Turn It Up". According to a press release, the incident occurred while the group was shooting a scene where the members of SONIC SYNDICATE were being murdered with a guitar by a "sexy girl." Although the scene was intended to be staged, Karin actually got hit in the head with the instrument, causing a laceration as well as a brain concussion.

Karin has every intention of making the trip to Lithuania this Saturday to join her SONIC SYNIDCATE bandmates as they perform at the Rocknights festival.

The "Turn It Up" video will be released in late September.

"Turn It Up" comes off SONIC SYNDICATE's new album, "We Rule The Night", which will be released in Europe on August 27 via Nuclear Blast Records. The CD was recorded at Bohus Sound studios in Kungälv, Sweden and was mixed at Paramount Studios in North Hollywood, California by producer Toby Wright, who has previously worked with KORN, SLAYER, MÖTLEY CRÜE, KISS, FEAR FACTORY, IN FLAMES, STONE SOUR and OZZY OSBOURNE, among others.
