Ex-Omnium Gatherum -jäsenistä koostuva Solar Cross julkaisee debyyttinsä marraskuussa
Kotimainen progressiivista death metallia soittava Solar Cross julkaisee debyyttilevynsä ”Echoes Of The Eternal Word ” 19. päivä Transcending Recordsin kautta. Bändi muodostuu entisistä Omnium Gatherum-jäsenistä ja bändin kitaristi Harri Pikka sekä sanoittaja Matti Rautaniemi kommentoivat asiaa näin:
Harri:
” ‘Bloodstreams’ is the first ever song written, recorded, and mixed for SOLAR CROSS so it’s justified to go out first. Vocalist Lauri [Pikka] did some experimental percussive breathing exercises throughout the song creating this saw-like rhythm. The song leans on a steady shamanic groove of the beginning and the end, the adventurous thrash middle section ups the ante. The visualizer video goes well with the mood of the song.”

Matti:
“The idea for ‘Bloodstreams’ came from participating in a shamanic workshop, during which I experienced these lines of ancestral blood as an infinite rhizome of red streams — like a network of veins but extending far beyond my body. The song is about the fact that each one of us is connected to this vast network of ancestors. If we acknowledge this, and cultivate a reciprocal relationship with our roots, we can receive nourishment and support from these living streams which run through us and extend beyond us.”
