When Metal Wani asked Michael Romeo, guitarist of Sympony X on the subject "Fucking robots" his new solo album "War of the Worlds / Pt. 1" (which will be released on July 27) answered:
(laughs) That was not even supposed to be the title (of the song) That was pretty much what I had thought of, I heard someone say that dubstep sounded like when the Transformers have sex * And then I said , to the shit * with this, I'll leave it. "
In addition, Michael Romeo recalled when his children listened to dubstep: "Years ago I remember ... my children heard some of that ... I stayed like what the hell *? How can you hear that?"
"At the beginning I was like there are no guitars, but then there is a bass and it gets heavy and some of them have good rhythms, some have a lot of talent and respect that."
At that moment Michael Romeo came up with the idea: "So I was listening and it occurred to me that it would be great if there were guitars." For my solo album, I had that in mind and combined it with some orchestral elements.
That was fun, trying new things. "
Finally, ending the interview, he declared his love for this genre: "Dubstep may be my guilty pleasure, I always listen to my children, but I'm always a metal boy, I'm still listening to Judas Priest, although it's always good to hear something. different".
