Interviews: OPTICAL SUN
We have had the opportunity to interview the Doom Metal/Sludge Metal/Stoner Metal band OPTICAL SUN from Poland. Check out the interview and follow the band on their FACEBOOK PAGE.
1. Where did you get the idea for the band name, you planned it or come out just like that?
The idea came out to Łukasz (guitarist) during high school times. He was carry this name for about 15 years until it can be used as band name.
2. Why did you want to play this genre?
We think that in some way it came up on its own. We mostly create our music during jam sessions. The ideas on jam sessions contains temporary mood or music which are you into at this stage so after that our music contains a little bit of this two. But for sure we like slow breakdowns!
3. Did you know each other before the band was formed?
Yes we did. Four from 5 members now each others from highschool and played together in punk rock band. Przemek the drummer join later to play Optical Sun.
4. Each band member favourite band?
It's tricky question for every one of us so we decided to show the bands which we can listen together like: Ministry, Neurosis, Kyuss, Type O Negative, Joy Divison or The Cure. We even love black metal like Mgła or chill vibes like QUOTSa or The Dandy Warhols.
5. Who or what inspires you to write songs?
It really depends, but mostly the current situation in your life inspire to write songs. But mostly the riffs cames out of nowhere for most out the time. It just like we come to rehearsal and ideas starts to come.
