Interview   with  Sacrilegous  Impalment    done  by   Patrick




1.Hails  When  did  you  all  meet? Was  it  long before  you  all  formed  Sacrilegious  Impalement    ? How  did  you  all  come  up  with  the  name  for the  band?

 Hells! Pretty boring and normal route of forming a band to tell actually, I don´t know how the hell other bands allways have fullmoons and werewolves and goblins lurking in the shadows and all, ours wasn´t like that. It was in late 2005 when I decided it is time to put this idea of band I´ve had in mind for years in action. I was already playing in Evil Angel, but I needed a bit more. At around that time Kaosbringer moved to my hometown Lahti. I already knew him from Neutron Hammer and I was impressed about the vocal range he could pull after seeing Neutron Hammer playing at a local bar. We started to speak about music and bands at Toolouds home where we were having few drinks. I told that I was starting a band and looking for a vocalist. Luckily Kaosbringer was looking for a band too from Lahti. We spoke about the directions and ambitions and had mutual interests how to work a black metal band. For few first years it was just us and session drummers. Tooloud, also from Evil Angel, came later to play bass. Revenant came in as a permanent drummer in 2009 or 2010 and has been a big part of the work since.
I came up with the name.
 
 
 
 
2.What   is  the  current  line-up  of   Sacrilegious  Impalement    ? The  band  formed  in  2006  how  do  you  feel    Sacrilegious  Impalement´s    music  has  changed  since you  all formed the  band?
 

 Wrathprayer - Vocals, Impaler Von Bastard - Guitars, Tooloud - Bass, Revenant - Drums, Asassin - Guitar (live). We are now playing live with Kaosbringer again, atleast for few gigs. How the music have changed? You tell me! I have always tried to write the next song a bit different than the previous and sometimes they vary so much we almost cannot speak about a same band, you know. Like from "II - Exalted Spectres", just compare songs like "Blessed to Resist" to "Aletheia" to "Grand Funeral Convoy". Ofcourse every vocalist have had different impact on our music as I have kept in mind what kind of songs would suit them when writing the music.
 
 
 
 
3. Sacrilegious  Impalement    recently  released  a  cd  through  Black  Plague Rec  and  Satanath Rec.  titled  "First  Three  Nails"  which  contains  your  early  demo's.How  did you  and  the  labels  decide to release  the early  demo's   onto  one cd?

 We were playing in St.Petersburg, Russia a while ago and there I met the owner of Satanath Records (rus). He wanted to release a compilation of our old out of press/sold out records in one CD and I had nothing against doing it. Later on Desert of Death (rus) and Black Plague Records (us) were involved too. 
 
 
 
 
4.Besides  the  new  cd  "First  Three  Nails"   does  the  band  have   any  other  merchandise  available  for the  readers? If  yes   where  can  the  fans  buy  it  from?

You can find our stuff pretty much from all the relevant distros all over the world, but from here you can check what the band self has available at the moment:

 
 
 
5.Does  Sacrilegious  Impalement    play  very  many  "live"  shows  or  do you  prefer  to  work  in  the  studio? Who  are  some  bands  you  all  have  shared  the  stage  with?

6. What   have  been  some  of your   most  memorable  shows  to date? Has   Sacrilegious  Impalement    ever  played  outside  of  Finland? If  yes  where?

So many memorable, but I´ll share these. We were asked to replace MARDUK as a headliner of FireBox Metal fest III in 2010. MARDUK had to cancell becouse the volcano erupted in Iceland and the ash in the air over Europe forced the aeroplains to stay in ground. Well anyway, we had to take this gig in few hours and we managed to get there to play. After the gig we went to the backstage and there was a full fight going on with many people just fighting around the place. Pigs blood got mixed with human blood..

A month ago we were playing at Pori and we were shouted to come back for encore. We went back to the stage and started to play. The audience went crazy with "Behead the Infants of god" and then I saw that a fucking Jack Sparrow impersonator came to the stage. Few moments and I saw him back in the audience having his ass kicked by the others. 
Not so many abroad gigs yet, London and St.Petersburg.
 
 
7.What   does  Black Metal   mean  to  you?

 It is the art which I can relate and channel my work from the unknown the most. Rebel spirit.
 
 
 
 
8.Sacrilegious  Impalement    comes  out  of  Finlands  black  metal  scene what  is  your   opinion  of  Finland's  black  metal  scene?

 
I´ve heard that the people who declared that the scene died in the 90´s are still sceneing about it.
 
 
9.Who  are   your  all-time  favorite  Finnish  bands?  Are their  any  new   bands  you  feel  the  readers should  check  out  soon?

 Pretty much all the bands I listed earlier and ARCHGOAT, MUSTA SURMA, FLAME, PEER GÜNT, MOOTTORILINNUT, SLEEPY SLEEPERS.. Too many again.  Check out KYY.
 
 
 
10.What  about good  Labels/distro's  that  the fans  should  check  out?Are  their   any g ood  fan/web-zines  you  feel  the  readers  should  watch  out  for?

 - Support these labels:

 - With Evil Angel we have recorded new full-lenght. First one since 2006 actually. And then we (I & Revenant) have this new thing coming which is going to be something I am really looking forward to. Stay tuned for the announcement.
 
 
 
 
 
12.Besides  writing  and  performing   music  what  do  you  enjoy  doing   in your  free time?

 - Good food, movies, traveling, reading. Normal stuff.  I collect Verotik comics, books about real vampirism and werewolves cases, medieval, witchcraft and occultism, old finnish myths. Books about Vlad Drăculea, Erzsébet Báthory etc.
