Praying Mantis Q&A with Chris TroyAugust 2009




Congratulations on a new brilliant album.
How has the response been so far?

- Thank you so much. The response has been fantastic and so much above our wildest expectations. Really hope the momentum continues.

It took awhile between The Journey Goes On and Sanctuary.
What was the major reason for that?

- I think one of the major reasons that Sanctuary is good is that it sounds so fresh. We have taken a step back over these years in order to cleanse our minds and introduce this rejuvenated style. I know it is 6 years and in truth it is hard to believe it has been that long. Hopefully it won’t be another 6 years.
