Conclusion of the interview with Rebecca from Laws Of Gravity.
Q: Could you tell us something about these songs in the podcast.
Rebecca: Tanpura: Mike just felt like writing something really
aggressive at the time, tapping into some of his hardcore roots. I was
drawing from some of my own personal experiences, and wrote lyrics
about that. When we were in the studio doing the final mastering, Mike
had this Indian meditation cd that we thought would be pretty cool as
the intro, and so we ended up adding that in. 
Rebecca: Sunday: This was a song that I had written with a friend of
mine in London. It was originally an electronic /ambient track. Mike
had asked me if I might want to make one of my songs heavy, and I gave
him a batch of tunes, including that one to work with. By the next
rehearsal, he had turned it into an awesome Laws Of Gravity tune,
taking the basic theme of the song, plus adding some new parts that
would compliment the original tune.
Rebecca: On Your Knees: Mike was in the mood to write something slow
and dark, and I just fed off of that, and came up with the lyrics. We
are both really inspired by Middle-Eastern music, thanks to our
influences by Led Zeppelin and Soundgarden. Mike especially loves that
style, thanks to all the Indian restaurants he eats in. That helped us
to come up with the idea for the middle section of the tune.
Is their anything I missed you would like to add ?
We really appreciate everyone who has supported us. Thanks to Mark and
A1 Artist Spotlight for digging our music and featuring us on this
podcast. We really enjoy performing live, so if we’re playing in your
area, we’d love for you to come down and check out our live set. You

Check out this podcast I just found “Blues In The Night”. One great hour of blues and blues rock each week. I’ve only heard about four shows (4 hours) so far and have not heard one bad song yet. This show is going to be a great resource for me to find us new spotlight artist. James McGee is the host and does a very good job. James does not waste your time with unnecessary talk, his show is about the music and it shows because you get a lot of it. Click here for Blues In The Night website.
