Rock trio Black Orchid Empire have really honed their craft on their upcoming full-length 'Semaphore'. Juxtaposing hard-hitting riffs with stunning melodies, the sci-fi concept album features thirteen songs each with a different narrative theme. One of the band's recent singles, 'Natural Selection', was released alongside a video, telling the story of an alien sent down to a failing earth in an attempt to solve their problems. Keen to find out more, we caught up with vocalist/guitarist Paul Visser to discuss the song and video themes, the writing process and why 'Natural Selection' is a standout track on their new release.
