It's not over yet

Catch Delhi band cyanide play their new song today

Cyanideu00a0has come a long way from playing in campuses. Known for foot-tapping guitar riffs and melodic pop choruses, the band plays Modern Alternative Rock. MiD DAY caught up with lead vocalist Rohan Solomon about their newly released EP, their upcoming album and more. Here are excerpts:

What took you guys so long to release Not over yet?
It took long because of timing issues with our producer. But we pushed and pushed and finally managed to release it.

Tell us about making of Not Over yet, and the hurdles you guys faced as a band.
Well, we actually started out trying to record a full album, which came to a standstill because of multiple reasons like line-up changes, timing issues etc. Eventually we just took a call not to wait any longer and just launched it as an EP.

You guys are working on an album, what is the expected release date?
Very close. The cover is yet to be printed. Once we have those, the first thing we will do is ship out all the 'pre-orders' that came in. Planning a 'launch gig' and tour will take a lot of promoting and sponsors which we have started working on now.

Can you walk us through the songs?
There are 12 songs in the new record Sugar-coated. They talk about fun and chilled out things like partying, getting rich, living the dream and also about serious topics like saving our environment and finding yourself deep inside. Our first single Money is getting decent spins on the radio stations.
