Sol Invicto have newly issued a track titled “Galactic Glitch“. While just being unearthed now, this latest song from the electronic metal collective has roots dating back to 2018. The band’s linchpin, producer, keyboardist, programmer, etc. Richie Londres, said of the history of this single, which finds drummer Luke Shenton guesting:
“Stumbled on a collection of short outtakes from a few tracks Stephen recorded in a session from 2018, just various leads and sound fx, took these and blended and meshed them up together. Recently started working with a very talented UK drummer called Luke Shenton, had Luke run a full live take on this one, with some minor editing at my end but otherwise kept it natural. Didn’t really give too much attention to mixing this one, just worked on the sounds individually and balanced them out as I wanted it to keep it rough.”
The Stephen that Londres refers to is of course is Deftones guitarist Stephen Carpenter, who along with Cypress Hill percussionist Eric Bobo, has been a core member of Sol Invicto. Bobo however was not involved with this track.
Over the past year or two, Sol Invicto have slowly been unveiling an evolving collection of songs they’ve dubbed ‘Vault Of Shadows‘ overall.
