SOTHIS Drummer, Producer ANDY LA ROCQUE Interviewed; Video Available
October 4, 2008Drummer Dross of the Los Angeles-based black metal band SOTHIS and producer Andy La Rocque (KING DIAMOND guitarist) — who mixed SOTHIS' recently released album, "De Oppresso Liber", at his studio in Sweden — are featured in an in-depth mixing board discussion on the CD shot on location at La Rocque's Sonic Train Studios in Varberg. Watch the five-minute chat below.
SOTHIS recently filmed a video for the title track of "De Oppresso Liber". The clip was shot in Los Angeles with director Joe Suarez, who has previously worked with KILLSWITCH ENGAGE, AS I LAY DYING and EVANESCENCE, among others.
Founding member Dross (drums) says of "De Oppresso Liber", "If you are into aggressive, polished black metal that is well executed then you're going to love 'De Oppresso Liber'. We've been able to capture some incredible performances and couple them with some very talented engineers. We wanted to make a record that we would be genuinely proud of and we've accomplished that."
A fixture on the Los Angeles area, SOTHIS released through independent channels its four-song mini-album in late 2004. A regional tour was set up with performances throughout the Southwest; the shows inspiring two limited-release DVDs that capture the band's impressive stage personnae.
