[MUSIC INTERVIEW] GOLDSMITH – Of Sound And Fury Interview

20 years after the last album of the legendary thrashers from Blackend, the mastermind Michael Goldsmith comes back under the roof of MDD Records and thus also musically a bit “back to the roots“. 

For the third album, which appears under his own name, Goldsmith has strengthened himself with experienced musicians from the scene and delivers an album with a new line-up, which stylistically combines his most formative musical experiences. “Of Sound And Fury” is not a simple classic metal album – the influences of classic rock and blues are too prominent for that – and yet the die-hard fans will easily recognise the clear borrowings from thrash metal or the unmistakable style of Blackend, be it in the sophisticated guitar work, the demanding solos or simply Goldsmith’s unmistakable vocals. 

“Of Sounds And Fury” offers entertaining rock with a more than clear homage to his own thrash metal past. 

The album will be released this week via MDD Records and this week Goldsmith spoke to Dave Griffiths about the release.
