It took a lot of hard work and a few cast changes to get this together. Evan, our guitarist and vocalist, had been traveling the USA from New Orleans to Oregon and everywhere in-between, hitch-hiking and even hopping the occasional freight-train, trying to make something happen. At first, we met up in Texas under the name Maenad but were again torn apart. Finally, we all locked ourselves in a basement studio at AMP rehearsal studios in LA to flesh out the bones of this first album.
It sounds exactly like what it is: the combined frustration, hatred, depravity, and despair that came from years of dredging the gutters, drug dens and 5 dollar shows across the USA for something meaningful, something real.
We are Somnus Throne and we are from all over the USA.
