Description
TRONOS is a true collision between two unstoppably creative heroes of the metal underground: Shane Embury (Napalm Death, Brujeria) on guitar/vocals and producer Russ Russell (At The Gates, Dimmu Borgir, Napalm Death) on guitar, synths and vocals team up with drummer Dirk Verbeuren for a load of dark fractured colossal doom ambience metal. "Celestial Mechanics" also features a string of illustrious guests: Denis 'Snake' Belanger (Voivod / vocals), Erica Nockalls (The Wonder Stuff / vocals & violin) as well as no fewer than three legendary bass players, Billy Gould (Faith No More), Troy Sanders and Dan Lilker (Nuclear Assault, S.O.D.). Also featuring the Black Sabbath cover version "Johnny Blade", this rocketing debut album was mixed by Jaime Gomez Arellano (Ghost, Solstafir, Paradise Lost, Ulver) as well as Russ Russell. Get ready for lift-off!"For years, whenever we were together on the road or in the studio, we often had late night conversations about making music that was dark and apocalyptic but also contrastingly fragile and ambient, encompassing the different moods of music that we both love..."The greatest, most enduring music often emerges from a meeting of mercurial minds. When it comes to Shane Embury and Russ Russell and their new project Tronos, the two have worked closely for decades and have long since established an instinctive creative rapport. Best known as bassist with Napalm Death but also a prolific collaborator across the heavy music world, Shane is renowned for his eclectic musical tastes, while Russ is widely acknowledged as one of the most original and idiosyncratic producers in music today. After deciding upon the core ideals of their new venture, the task creating the music for what is now Tronos' debut album "Celestial Mechanics" sent these two maverick extremists into mind-altering cosmic realms."The concept was born way before we even hit the first note," recalls Russ.
