Hail - maybe you can start with giving us a shorter update on the state
of things within the band and what you have been up to since the recording
of this album?
- During 10 months after the recording we were more or less
in a situation that could have led to murder. Paul and his Necroshit Records
refused to pay the studio. Always the same fucking lies about their problems
and how little money they had at the moment. FUCK THAT!! I can understand
that an album release can be like 1-2 months delayed because of all
different reasons. But to not be able to pay for the fucking studio in 10
months is under all critisism. Under this period we tried atleast our best
to spread the word about the album, we also did some live shows. Then you
called me up on a Friday with an offer to release the album. Then the next
Monday the studio was paid. You could do something for us in 3 fucking days
that Necroshit not could do in 10 fucking months and they are the ones that
brags about how "big" and "leading" they are in the scene. Itīs a fucking
joke!!!!!
Comment: judging by direct experience with said label and judging by the testimonies
of 99 % of all past and even some present NECROPOLIS bands who all have been ripped
to the bone - we would be very surprised if they arenīt out of business for good
in the coming months.
Any thoughts on your former label???
- Hailz to Matt Harvey!! Fuck off to
Paul Thind!!
listening to the new album - which has a lot of great guitar-riffing, Iīd
say your style is something in between Death and Thrash with loads of
memorable hooks in there. How would you label your music yourselves? also
what are your main influences musically (SLAYER is surely one haha)???
- We
simply label ourselves as a Death/Thrash metal act. Most of our influences
comes from bands like Slayer, Death, Sadus, Autopsy ect. just stuff that we
grow up with. I also listen alot to stuff like Nifelheim, Tormentor, Dark
Throne, Deathwitch and old Mayhem. In some ways that stuff also influences
us, but itīs not general in the music.
What bands/music do you listen to today?
- I would say the same as
always. Sometimes I find new stuff that I enjoy, but often that is only new
albums from bands that have been around for sometime. Exept the bands I
mention earlier I listen to stuff like Defleshed, Vader, Deicide, King/Fate,
Candlemass, Dissection, Misfits/Danzig, Possessed, Ravager,Venom, Bathory,
Krisiun, Celtic Frost, old Sepultura, old Metallica, Mortem, Sodom,
Pentacle, Sarcofago,the list could go on.
You are from the same small town as MERCILESS. Your sound is a little bit
similar, you have the same type of line - up etc, and you have a similar
history as well ( since both you and MERCILESS are at your fourth album and
you have also released all your albums on different record labels) any
thoughts on this? also - do you have some special relationship with them?
IDonīt really have any thoughts about it. Both bands have had the same shit
problems with labels ect. When it comes to the music so are there some small
similaritis as we share some of the old influences. Other than that I would
say that we are pretty different, the type of riffing, drumming and
arrangement are pretty unlike eitchother. There is no special relationship
between us, not that we hang-out everyday or anything like that. Sometimes
we meet at partyīs, getting drunk and just talking shit. They are great
guyīs though.
Your song titles are fucking brilliant - The Evil remains the same - 13
th disciple - Enter The holocaust - Burn til Death etc. Who writes the
lyrics? and are you seriously into these dark subjects?
- Erik writes most
of the lyrics. Sometimes Kalle or me contribute with some stuff. I think
Kalle did two and a half lyrics to the new album, 13 th disciple, Demons
Rape and Blinded by illusions. I did only the first 4 lines on "13th Disciple" and
also came up with the title "The Evil Remains the Same". I used to do more
lyrics before, but I think I will drop that and only concentrate on the
riffing part. The reason why we play this kind of music and write about
these dark subjects is because we are attracted to its form. So yez, we take
it serious.
if you could get away with killing someone without getting caught for it
- who would it be???
- I think it would be to oblivous if I said Paul Thind,
haha!! All the fanatic leaders that spreads the words about Christ. Fuck it
and Fuck īem!! The individuals will reign the world!!
Fuck off words????
- Kill Christ..Sodomized!! Anyone are welcome to
contact me regarding more info about the band. Get the new album and fucking
support the dwellers!.cheerz!!
