Shield of Wings Interiew!

Hello Everyone,

Local band Shield of Wings joined us in the studio tonight, and it was awesome. We played two tracks off of their debut EP, Solarium, and had an interview about Solarium, the band, upcoming shows, and more! It was a great time.

We still found time for some news, however it was a little depressing. Jeff Loomis and Van Williams has left Nevermore. They will both be missed and remembered for their tremendous contributions to the band over the years. Also, on a similar note, Roy Khan has left Kamelot. He will also be missed, and we would like to wish him luck on his further ventures and also Kamelot in finding a replacement.

You can check out Shield of Wings by visiting them on Facebook, Myspace, Reverbnation, Cdbaby.com, Youtube, and iTunes. Also, for audio of the interview, visit webcast.wonc.org, go down to Metal Oxide at the bottom, and select 'Saturday 23 April 2011' The interview itself is about half way through, but they joined us on air throughout the show.
