The GBHBL Whiplash - Episode 429: Interview: Chris Martin (Guitars) of Shrapnel
from GBHBL Interviews · host Games, Brrraaains & A Head-Banging Life
UK heavyweights Shrapnel will release their album ‘In Gravity’ via Candlelight Records on 31st May. The new album is the sound of rebirth and marks the launch of a new chapter for Shrapnel. Drawing on their ever-deepening well of experience and influence, In Gravity sees a band at the height of their song writing prowess. Whether dealing in extremity and complexity, Gojira-inspired bludgeoning heaviness, or a newly emerging sense of modern melodic maturity, Shrapnel are able to weave their sonic palette in new, genre-defying directions. Helmed by Swedish super producer Jens Bogren (Sepultura, Opeth, Amon Amarth, Ihsahn) and featuring collaborations with Scott Kennedy (Bleed from Within) and modern shred virtuoso Bradley Hall, In Gravity sees Shrapnel breaking out of their shackles where others have failed, and staking their claim to the British metal throne. We spoke to guitarist Chris Martin about the new album, about the evolution of the Shrapnel sound, the difficult past few years, looking forward, and so much more.
