This is Metal. But not with a nice little box you can put it in.
Not even the box which says "outside the box". No label that - even before
hearing the music - defines sound, attitude, outfit, and a formula. It's not New
School, it's not Old School, not this, not that... it's its own thing.
It's Metal – strong, fresh, clever, authentic, headstrong. And heavy as hell.
The creative force behind Enemy Of The Sun is Waldemar Sorychta, master
guitarist, producer extraordinaire and prolific songwriter for more than two
decades. He wrote all the music and played it for Grip Inc., Voodoocult and
Despair, he also shaped the sound and feel of Lacuna Coil, Sentenced, Moonspell,
Tiamat, The Gathering and countless others.
With Grip Inc. in mothballs, Enemy Of The Sun is his return to stages worldwide
after a lot of producing, writing and working on several projects. All music on
the Enemy Of The Sun album was written by Sorychta, who also handled production
and mix.
The Band:
A main ingredient to the eclectic sound Enemy Of The Sun are the vocals by
Finnish singer Jules Näveri, who delivers it all – brutality, death and
destruction combined with addictive hooklines and otherworldy eerieness, all
with a personal twist you haven't heard yet. No, really, it's just one guy. For
the drums, Sorychta unearthed a diamond: Daniel Zeman plays with force that
astonishes even the master. And this says something: We all know which drummers
Waldemar has played with in the past ten years. Bass is handled by Alla
Fedynitch, who is no stranger to the world of metal. She has been banging her
head around Europe for Pain and several other bands.
The Future:
Enemy Of The Sun are ready to tear it up. The album is done, and is has to be
heard. There are even songs being written for the second CD. Rehearsals are
underway, the band is fired-up and good to go.
