RYL: Tell us everything about the song “Last Resort”
RADIUM VALLEY: Last resort is a song about mutation causes by radioactivity.
It’s a tale which talk about a meeting with a creature and a mad man in an apocalyptic atmosphere.
RYL: Do you remember the day you wrote “Behind Me”?
RADIUM VALLEY: Yes. Behind me is probably for us one of the songs we prefer in this album. It was inspired by artists we like.
This track is composed with a melodic chorus (seems like choruses of Paradise Lost) and rhythmic verses like Rammstein, with a stonner/doom break.
We can say that this song is a kind of melting pot with lot of influences. It talks about anxiety and depersonalization.

RADIUM VALLEY: We are working on the tour booking of the band for 2015. We have dates booked in France and Europe and we hope that we can go in USA soon.
RYL: Which is the best verse ever written in a song?
RADIUM VALLEY: There are too many verses written and too many great bands! But we could chose “Mutter” by Rammstein, or Fjara by Solstafir.
RYL: Tell us about “For all of us” what inspired it?
RADIUM VALLEY: “For all of us” is a song which talk about the death (in its symbolic sense). It’s an abstract song, everybody can imagine a story which looks like his own life or experience.
“For all of us who died, I sing this lullaby
It sounds like funeral, tell me I’m immortal…”
