The EP is out... the link is http://bit.ly/pGQeW5

Jesus mate, bit quick....should listen to that before you share it out at least hahaha

Sounds awesome, a big improvement from those clips we heard earlier. It's basically a 20 minute instrumental, I like it.

All 7 tracks flow and together are about 20 minutes long, instrumental (no lyrics):

Here's part 1 (first 5 tracks):
Sol Invicto - Initium EP (part 1)

part 2 (track 6 and 7):
Sol Invicto - Initium EP (part 2)

Hey, could someone please tell me who is the drummer on Sol Invicto? I don't want to have it wrong on my youtube videos. I copied what it says on the Sol Invicto official youtube channel which has Eric Bobo as drummer, it happens to be the same as what wikipedia says (yes I know, not always reliable). There's also some older sources I've seen that say it is Zach Hill and some that say Dan Foord. So which is it? Or is it a combination of the 3?

After doing some more searching for information, it seems that they recorded stuff with Zach Hill on drums in '08 and a lot of it was changed or mixed and they later added Eric Bobo's drums to the tracks.

"We actually had Zach's (Zach Hill) drums recorded back in 2008, and they ended up just sitting in the hard drive for a couple of years because we didn't really feel the tracks were right" a quote from Richie Londres interview.

Anyway like I said the last thing I want to do is have it wrong on my youtube video. So I will credit both Zach Hill and Eric Bobo.

In this EP drummers are Zach Hill and Eric Bobo. Yeah Dan Foord worked with Sol Invicto, but his drums not presented in this EP, maybe it will be in the next Eps. Read the interview with Richie, he answered who did what on this EP.

thanks man

I might be able to help!

Those drums are all Zach Hill, Bobo is percussion, only on a couple sections on this ep. Dan Ford is on EP 3 and another drummer is on EP 2. Once all 3 are out we will be working with Dan Foord on the album, he is the main drummer for us right now.

Agreed , to death. Or maybe without the black text box

Deftones-argentina · Jan 26, 2012, 01:23 PM

Wow, good blending of metal & hip hop-vibe beats!
Finally Steph uses a Phaser.

sounds awesome, i'm loving it. i wish steph would've use this song for the next deftones record. at 3:00 it sounds a little like will havens latest record. but i guess this is to dark for deftones nowadays. can't have stuff shit like this on their records, gotta make room for beauty school and sextape songs

Hi,

looking at Sol Invicto's Soundcloud, I've noticed I'm missing "Its Alive (Tech N9ne Remix)". Anyone have this? Could it be uploaded? Also, this one's from 2011 or 2010?

Thanks in advance!

Edit: checking my old e-mails, I've received one from Richie saying that a track called "Pancake" was available from a couple of days only. Miss that too, could it be uploaded as well?
