KOBRA AND THE LOTUS vocalist Brittany "Kobra" Paige is featured in a new interview with Full Throttle Rock. An excerpt is available below:

Full Throttle Rock: Tell me about the new album, what can we expect and when will it be released?

Kobra: "Oh I am so excited, the end of January (2014) is what the plan is and I do not see any reason why it won’t be because we have almost fully wrapped it. We are back in the studio, there are just final little clean ups now, so in the new year there is going to be a new album. The new album is really interesting because it is absolutely eclectic but there is still consistency, but you almost cannot figure it out all the time why it is inconsistent because there are that many different things. I mean, there are a lot of different expressions on this album, you have a lot of really traditional in your face metal, you know, just straight up heavy metal songs, but then we have some things that steer more towards Nordic sounding and maybe even Canadian, which I do not even know what that means but it just sounds different (laughs), it is different from our last album. Which is crazy, because you try not to be different, you do not want to change you sound or anything, but every time you write new music it all has to do with what is just pouring out of you at that time. There is even some more rock metal thing that goes back to more close to the roots of Kobra And The Lotus, when we first started which was in between rock and metal, there is a little bit of that in there too. So it is interesting, it is very heavy still, but it is eclectic and I cannot wait, there are some songs that I am not sure what to tell you it is because I do not know what the label would be for it, it is still metal, I do not know what kind of metal (laughs)."
