Sarah recently spoke with BW&BK;'s Carl Begai about the new album. An excerpt from the story is available below:

Asked if she and her bandmates went darker and heavier than God Has A Plan For Us All and A Sign Of Sublime on purpose, Sarah chalks up the sound on The Corruption Of Mercy to not over-thinking the music.

“Two of the tracks I wrote about eight years ago and believe it or not, they were very old DARKTHRONE / SATYRICON sounding to begin with, not that anyone would ever tell now. When I listened to them, I knew that would all change during the writing process. We never plan for things, I never plan. I tried to plan with the last album and it went tits up because there were too many people involved. This time, we just wrote over a period of time and sat back and watched it progress. We just took chances. We all have to take chances and I still say, don’t plan stuff because it never ends up the way you want it to.”
“Oh, and no, no CRADLE OF FILTH, Angtoria, THERION or anything was an influence on the new album. We did know, however, that this album had to be on par with God Has A Plan For Us All. We just tried to push A Sign Of Sublime to the back as far as possible.”
