Interview: Dan Walmsley of Magnetar (Video/Audio)
Magnetar, a three-piece blackened death metal band from the UK, have released their debut album ‘There Will Be No Peace in My Valley’ via Vendetta Records.
Featuring mastermind Dan Walmsley, who plays all instruments except the drums, which are hammered by Necronautical/Foetal Juice’s Rob Harris and the vocals which are delivered by Winterfylleth/Aro bassist, Nick Walllwork.
When a band with the heavy calibre of Magnetar comes along, we pay attention. So, it should come as no surprise that There Will Be No Peace in My Valley has a beastly sound. One based within the world of blackened death, but not curtailed by the more extreme and aggressive soundscape, and more than willing to experiment with melody.
You can read our full review of the album here.
We spoke to mastermind Dan Walmsley about the release of the album. Digging into the details around the album, it came to exist, how Magnetar got to this stage, the challenges that come with promoting a record, what success might look like for the album, what the future might hold, and so much more.
