O ZORN! has been described as post-metal, sludge metal, doom metal, but I’m not one for putting bands in boxes (when I can avoid it), so let’s just say O ZORN! is dark. That’s certainly a suitable descriptor of the band’s latest record Vermillion Haze.
The band’s frontman, songwriter and driving force Bill Kielty and I discuss the events leading up to the making of the album and as you’ll hear plenty was going on that would explain the mournful tone of the record.
I only have one regret from this interview. I didn’t ask Bill if he ever considered doing a cover of Art Garfunkel’s “Bright Eyes”.
I’m going to leave it up to you to figure out that reference.
Thanks for reading (and listening). If you haven’t done so already, why not subscribe? And hey, what’s this? That’s right, the podcast is now on Spotify too. Well how about that.
