When you spend two days all alone shooting a music video in extreme conditions - seventy meters underground with 7°C inside the Gouffre de Poudrey, which is France's largest equipped cave, that is dedication to your art. In today's episode, we chat with frontman Vince Wilquin from French progressive metal outfit Fractal Universe. Vince talks about the band's newest upcoming album, “The Impassable Horizon,” and the experiences on shooting a music video inside a cave that really showcased the band's aesthetics on getting the themes and concepts of the record into a visual representation. Vince also incorporated something fresh and unique into Fractal Universe's sound – and that is playing the saxophone. This new element has really expanded the band's catalog while adding another dimension to the overall sound, and Vince takes us through his experiences from Day 1 when he first picked up the brass instrument, into making it a permanent playing habit. A dedication to the art, and Vince, with his bandmates, are all in. Tune in now and be sure to buy and stream “The Impassable Horizon” from Fractal Universe, due out June 25 on Metal Blade Records.
