Greetings! It’s Taylor Ayers (AKA Renee Revolver) with Metal Southern Belles Media. My interviewing ventures are about to level up with my upcoming podcast, The Metal Phone. The conversations with Rock and Metal musicians will live on – in the form of phone calls. But firstly, I have a few more written interviews to bring to you. The one for this week is with Power Metal band, Vulpecula. From the world of a far off star, Noah, Fridolf, and Jack descend to discuss the band’s latest single, the to-be-released EP, and the magic that powers Vulpecula…

MSBM: Hey, guys! Let’s get right into it! How did you get started as a Power Metal vocalist, Noah?

Noah: Hi, Taylor! Thanks so much for giving us the opportunity to answer some burning questions! So, I really only started singing Power Metal 2 years ago. I sang pop-styled music for many years, but I’ve always been jealous of Power Metal singers; so I took it upon myself to learn how they get that range!

MSBM: In my opinion, your pop-esque, Power Metal would be perfect for an anime soundtrack! Maybe there IS some anime influence? Regardless, what exactly made you want to go with this particular sound?

Fridolf: I used to work on a lot of anime projects as a songwriter. I’m not a huge fan of anime, but the experience has definitely affected our music.

MSBM: That’s pretty damn cool, actually! I knew I was getting some anime vibes. Also, what does “Vulpecula” mean?

Noah: So, Vulpecula is latin for “Little Fox”. Though, we named the band after the little-known star system! We like space stuff!

MSBM: Love it! This may be irrelevant, but as a big Star Fox fan, I appreciate the fox and space combo, haha! Anyways, what bands contribute to influencing Vulpecula?

Noah: Oh, I’m sure we will have multiple answers to this, haha! For me, I like to take inspiration in my vocals from Northtale, Majestica, and of course, Twilight Force.

MSBM: Very nice! So, your band recently released a single entitled, “Crystallite Dream”. What can you tell me about this song?

Noah: “Crystallite Dream” was actually intended to be part of a professional anime project that Fridolf was working on. He sent me the song one night, and I told him that we needed to turn it into Power Metal, and so it was!

MSBM: That’s awesome! Since unleashing this anime, Power Metal conflated tune, what is next for Vulpecula?

Noah: Next up for us is releasing our upcoming EP, ‘Under The Starlit Sky’! Comprised of 3 songs, the EP will take the listener through a magical journey, filled with soaring vocals and impressive solos with plenty of Japanese goodness!

MSBM: Since we are on the topic of this magical EP that’s approaching, where does Vulpecula’s lyrical inspiration stem from? What does the band write about? I assume it’s pretty space-y!

Noah: So, we have started building a story for our album that we have planned that our upcoming EP is part of. The story involves two lovers that are seperated and sent to a magical land in the stars. The couple lost their memories and are trying to find their way back to each other. There’s plenty of magic, dragons, and creatures as well though! We joke around and call it romance metal sometimes, haha!

MSBM: That sounds absolutely fantastic! And I think “romance metal” might have a ring to it, haha! Now, on to the next question. If you could collaborate with any other artist, who would it be?

Jack: If I could collaborate with any artist it would be Twilight Force, but I’d be happy to do stuff with anyone whose music I like!

MSBM: There’s so many awesome artists out there to choose from. The possibilities are truly endless! But it would be amazing for Vulpecula and Twilight Force to link up! Before we wrap things up, I want to ask something a little silly. Referring back to the debut single, what anime do you think it would be the perfect theme for?

Fridolf: I love Biohazard! So, why not that one!

MSBM: Great choice! Lastly, What platforms can the readers visit to follow Vulpecula’s journey?

Noah: Anybody can listen and follow us on Youtube, Spotify, Apple Music, Facebook, and Instagram!
