![]() ![]() I guess it was a decision at the time kind of to make Sumerlands seem as far away as from a "project" as possible, because when you see that it’s two or three guys doing something people will put it in the category of just a little project or something. Speaking of that early stuff I remember reading in an interview that you played bass on the first Sumerlands record, but I have my lyric sheet here in front of me and you’re not credited on it for that instrument. That’s when we started working on our first songs. Not too long after Power Trip is when Sumerlands started, probably the same year that the record came out. Everything up to that point was me finding my footing in recording. 2011 was the first thing that I ever booked seriously with the first Power Trip record. I really started recording in, like, 2011. Hey, busy is busy! That’s one thing that I’ve learned from doing multiple different jobs in the biz, there is no busy that feels easy. As a final note before getting into it, normally I cut out the intro to interviews and start with a question with the transcription, but the way this interview went it makes more sense to leave it in.īusy as shit! I know you know how that goes because you play in a billion fucking bands and also do all of the audio work. For the unfamiliar, Arthur is not only the main songwriter in Sumerlands but is also a key member of modern heavy metal legends Eternal Champion, and one of the hottest producers in the genre, having worked with bands like Power Trip, Cirith Ungol, Cavalera Conspiracy, Tomb Mold, Xibalba, and many more. Read below for an interview with Sumerlands' main songwriter, Arthur Rizk. Every listen that I give to Dreamkiller finds new things to love about it fans of true heavy metal and casual fans alike take heed, for this is heavy metal to die for. Fans of Sumerlands may find themselves missing Swanson's wildly theatrical vocal performance or the sheer melancholia evoked by its dreamy atmosphere, but Dreamkiller is still clearly the work of the same band and the energy and catchiness on songs like "Heavens Above" defy any possibility of calling it a step down. This is in no way a repeat of Sumerlands' self-titled album. Every second on Dreamkiller exudes confidence, a deep love for heavy metal, and a band whose musicianship towers above what most modern heavy metal can bring to the table. The riffs are sharper, the drums are as pounding as ever, the structures are insanely catchy, and new vocalist Brendan Radigan fills the massive shoes that Phil Swanson left with aplomb, though that’s perhaps not a shock given that Radigan has been fronting killer bands for years readers might know him from his time in Magic Circle (RIP), Pagan Altar, Battle Ruins, Stone Dagger, Mind Eraser, or one of the other bands he's been in. With years between for a fanbase to build not only for Sumerlands but for the various members' other bands as well (see also: Eternal Champion, Innumerable Forms, legendary doom giants Pagan Altar, and more) it seems to be the perfect time for Sumerlands to dominate the world.ĭreamkiller is a culmination of a promise that Sumerlands started and lives up in every possible way. ![]() In 2012, he made his feature directorial debut with Sony Pictures Animation's Hotel Transylvania and continued to direct its next two sequels, Hotel Transylvania 2 and Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation.When Sumerlands' eponymous debut, came out on Relapse Records in 2016 it took the metal world by storm.
