METAL CHURCH vocalist
Ronny Munroe will release his solo album,
"The Fire Within", in April. Several demo tracks which are expected to appear on the CD are available for streaming on
Munroe's
MySpace page.
Ronny Munroe's solo band includes
METAL CHURCH guitarist
Rick Van Zandt on guitar.
According to
Tacoma Weekly,
METAL CHURCH guitarist
Kurdt Vanderhoof had encouraged
Munroe for some time to do a solo project. With
METAL CHURCH's plans to tour in support of their new album on hold, this offered an opportunity for
Munroe to do so.
Munroe has 15 original songs to choose from for the upcoming CD, which is being co-produced by the singer and
Vanderhoof.
Munroe said these songs show a wider vocal range, bigger choruses and different melodies compared to his work in
METAL CHURCH.
He writes the lyrics and comes up with melody lines, while
Van Zandt is writing some of the music.
Sonic Excess conducted an interview with
Ronny Munroe in September. Listen to the chat at
