Sun Of The Blind Readies New Album
Sun of the Blind's "Skullreader," which was three years in the making and created by Zhaaral (better known or his militancy in the obscure DARKSPACE collective), is being readied for an April release via Avantgarde Music.
With Zhaaral taking care of all compositions, singing and instrumentations, it is pretty clear that Zhaaral is the raison d'etre of Sun of the Blind, although an important value-add in the last steps of his quest was provided by Roberto of Monumentum, who adorned the dark spine of Skullreader with various synthetic textures and samplings.
Two songs from "Skullreader" are now up on the band's Myspace player.
