Hollow Circus 3:39 Release Notes: Marcos Phillips - Guitar Mattiaus Morggz - Bass Paul Kellahar- Vocal Jayce Lewis - Drums The UK is currently home to a slew of heavy and genuinely exciting bands. Funeral For A Friend, Bullet For My Valentine, Million Dead, The Lucky Nine... the list goes on. And blistering metal quartet Losing Sun are the latest to create a buzz. Existing in various forms for nearly eight years, the Welsh based band release their debut album 'Inertia' on April 25 on Casket Records. Formed around the nucleus of Egyptian born guitarist Marcos Phillips and bassist Mattiaus Morggz, the band's sound is refreshingly free of post-hardcore/emo generics. Indeed Losing Sun have more in common with classic bands like Soundgarden, Alice In Chains and Sepultura than the ubiquitous emo gangs that are currently in vogue. Their finesse and dedication has landed them shows with bands like Lost Prophets, Killing Joke, Ill Nino and Sepultura. And their live show has grown into a fiery, focused display of their commitment and musical potency. The 'Inertia' album was recorded in Notting Pill Studios with ex-Skindred duo Jeff Rose and Martyn 'Ginge' Ford at the production helm. It was mastered by I.N.X.S engineer Frank Arkwright. The rough and tumble of the music industry will hold few concerns for drummer Jayce Lewis, who previously spent his time involved in the underground Cage Fighting scene. In addition to organising bouts, he has actually fought in three clashes (of which he won two!). That explosive aggression is now firmly focused into propelling Losing Sun forward. 'Inertia' is a shotgun greeting to the rock world!
