Hungarian webzine HitKit recently conducted an interview with drummer
Roy Mayorga (STONE SOUR, AMEBIX, ex-SOULFLY, SEPULTURA, MEDICATION). A
couple of excerpts from the chat follow.
HitKit: You played in a song with the Russian band ANJ…let us know something about that…
Mayorga: Hmm…that was an unexpected session…. A good friend of mine,
John Travis (producer/engineer), was called in to do some work with
them on arranging their songs. The members of ANJ involved was the
singer and guitar player Anatoly and Oleg. They came to work with John
Travis in search for a different kinda of approach and sound. So John
gave them the idea of hiring me and one other guitar player named Levon
Sultanian (ONESIDEZERO, ABLOOM). He's an incredible guitar player. Lev
and I used to play together in ABLOOM. So we got together in the
studio, We learned the gist of the song and added what we thought could
enhance what they had written. Definitely a cool experience…. a melding
of the musical cultures… Russian, Armenian and Latin.
