On Friday Katatonia's Jonas Renkse Talks Latest Album The Fall Of Hearts was a top story. Here is the recap: (TeamRock Radio) Katatonia vocalist and guitarist Jonas Renkse says studio sessions for latest album The Fall Of Hearts were some of the smoothest the band have ever experienced.
The follow-up to 2012's Dead End Kings launched earlier this month - and Renkse credits new members guitarist Roger Ojersson and drummer Daniel 'Mojjo' Moilanen for helping in the recording process.
He tells Metal Underground: "It was the first album to feature our new drummer Daniel Moilanen. This recording was actually one of the smoothest we have had so far. The vision was strong and we all worked hard to reach the goal that we had set up for ourselves.
"Lyrically my aim is always to make them go hand in hand with the music, so every song needs to be as complete as possible before I finalize the lyrics - but it's pretty much the same topics I have always used: contrasts, darkness, the inner struggle that we all can relate to from time to time.
"I want to portray them in sometimes a beautiful way, and sometimes a more haunting, unsettling kind of way. Sometimes a mix of the two." Read more - here.
