I have the best band in the entire world. Why is it important to you that people leave the show talking about the rest of your band? And the "Summer Storm" tour put your name front and center on the marquee. Nita Strauss Featuring Anders Friden, "The Golden Trail"Ī ton of touring is coming up The "Summer Storm" tour happened, and of course later on is the Rob Zombie-Alice Cooper tour you're gonna be doing. So it was a very, very cool and unique way I felt to create. And it was so cool for me to get to put a piece of music out there and have it come back in their signature styles. And it was such an interesting way to create because I couldn't possibly have written a melody like either one of them did.Īnders gave us this very sort of classic old school In Flames vibe, and David, with his sort of signature octaves and staccato vocals. ![]() I sent them an instrumental song and they sent me back a fully complete vocal, melody and lyrics and everything. I love that those were the two that you mentioned because those were the vocalists that I had absolutely no hand in part of what they did. What fascinates you most about tracing the schematics of other people's creativity? Some vocalists on the record like Anders Friden from In Flames and David Draiman of Disturbed brought their own melodies and lyrics. I'm just so happy that it's finally out to the world that people can hear the record and the concept in its entirety. I've had so many milestones on this record. So it's the first one I've ever had songs that go to radio. It's not like these bands that have like 10 and 15 albums out like this is number two. This is actually only my second solo record and so I definitely still have that rush. What is always thrilling about release day and getting a record out, no matter how often you experience it? It's been a long time coming and it's out now. Congrats on the release of your new record, The Call of the Void. I was just saying right before we got on to talk about this record, how lucky am I? Thank you so much for having me back. On the show with us this week is the one and only Nita Strauss. ![]() Strauss also opens up about the collaborative process, working with a slew of notable singers and even bouncing around ideas with fellow guitarist Marty Friedman.
