Interview with Tristan guitarist for Blastomycosis Posted on 5-5-24

 



1.Hello Tristan how are things going in Canada this week?Please introduce yourself to the readers?

Hey, I'm Tristan. I play guitar in BLASTOMYCOSIS. I am also the co-founder of the band. We are based out of Toronto, Canada. Been playing with Blastomycosis since 2007.


2.When did you first discover death metal and who were the first bands that caught your attention? Who are some of the current bands that you have been listening to?

The first death metal band I can remember listening to and liking was Vader. I eventually got into stuff like Decapitated, Morbid Angel Dying Fetus, Death, Obituary and it just kinda grew from there.


3.I believe you started Blastomycosis in 2007 what gave you the idea to start this band? Are you satisfied with how things have gone with the band over the years?What is the current line up of the band?

I never intended for Blasto to actually be a real band let alone a band that would play live. A co worker and I at the time thought it would be funny to record some rough death metal demos, with a drum machine. The theme being killing customers at our place of work with the various equipment we used. I ended up recording 3 very short songs just at home very roughly. I asked my buddy at the time to put some vocals on it. He did and we threw it on myspace.

Things have gone pretty well all things considered. We have had a few line up changes, and a few of us have had multiple children, so that has slowed us down a bit but otherwise pretty good for something I never intended to do much with.

Current line up is

Tristan – Guitar

Colin – Guitar

Peter – Bass

Dave – Drums

Mike - Vocals



4.Who would you say are the bands biggest influences and have they remained the same over the years?For the readers who have never heard Blastomycosis how would you best describe the bands sound?

For me personally it's probably Dying Fetus, Suffocation, Morbid Angel. I'd say those influences have probably stayed more less the same.Blastomycosis i'd say is pretty straight up brutal death metal with some sprinkles of grind and slam


5. A Feast For The Tasteless is the third full length that was released through CDN Rec. when did you and the band first come in contact with this label?

The tracks I spoke of earlier that I uploaded to Myspace. This got the attention somehow of CDN records. They messaged me asking if I was interested in putting out an album. At the time we didn't have a full band and only the 3 songs. They were willing to wait. So we found some more members, wrote some more bands, recorded it and CDN put it out. It was pretty cool. They are a great label to work with.


6.How long did it take the band to write the music for the new release?Does the whole band take part in the writing process or does one member usually write everything?

The majority of these songs were written between 2015-2018. We started recording in late 2019 and it was going pretty smoothly then Covid hit and we had some children. The whole process got delayed quite a bit. I feel we write a bit different. For this album and for Covered In Flies and Afterbirth, the majority of the album was written by Dave coming up with drum parts first, then bringing them to jam and me coming with stuff up then. I had very few pre written riffs before hand. I personally like this way of doing it. Feels natural to me.


7.Besides physical releases does the band have any other merchandise currently availible? If yes what is availible and where can the readers purchase it?

We are working on some new merch at the moment, should be available soon.


8.Has Blastomycosis played very many shows over the years?If yes what have been some of your most memorable shows?Who are some bands that you all have shared the stage with?

Touring with Lividity was pretty cool. As was opening for Incantation


9.Are their any shows or tours planned in support of A Feast For The Tasteless?If yes where will the band be playing?

We are currently planning some dates. Stay tuned.


10.What does Underground Metal mean to you?

To me it means just great metal that tends to fly under the radar.


11.What is your opinion of the Canadian brutal death metal scene over the years?

Lots of great bands for sure. The scene itself is pretty small. Canada is big and sparse so it's hard for a lot of bands to travel even within Canada.


12.Who are your all-time favorite bands coming out of Canada?Are their any new bands that you can recomend to the readers?

All time favorite is impossible to choose. Great bands coming out of Canada though.

Vesication, Human Compost, Creme Flesh, Last Retch, Vaginal Addiction, Sentiment Dissolve, Disgust, Holy Cost, Necrodios, Blood of Christ, so many.


13.Do any of the members currently work with other bands or solo projects? If yes please tell the readers a little about them?

I play bass in Gothic metal band MORTALFALL

Dave our drummer has worked with TOMB


14.When you need to take a break from working on new music or band business what do you enjoy doing in your free time?

I watch a lot of podcasts, play some games, and hang out with my family mostly.


15.Tristan thank you for taking the time to fill this interview out do you have any final comments for the readers?

Check out the new album!

Internment interview conducted by Jay Posted on 5-3-24

 Today I’m lucky enough to be talking with Internment… Old school traditional BM from Atlanta, Georgia

Hi guys, and thanks for taking the time to talk to our readers…


1- Tell us about the band, when/where/why was the band formed?? Who is in the current lineup?


 The band was formed in 2017 as an evolution of the Black/Thrash project Thoth Nemesis. The band was formed to worship evil and further the transformation of human scum into the weapon of Satan. Thoth Imperius Draconus is the sole member of Internment.


2- Run us through your discography and let our readers know where they can buy copies…


 The discography consists of a Demo released in 2017 and a full length called “Chained to the Moon” released in 2019. Some copies of the full length are still available in the US at internment.bandcamp.com. A re-release of the full length with bonus tracks and the demo will soon be available from Master of Khaos Records. The second full length was completed in January and will be announced soon.


3- What is the writing process when planning a new record? 

There is no process. Time elapses… hatred grows… the expression of evil is inevitable.


4- I have heard a new album will be coming soon … Tell us about it, run us through it track by track.. when/where was it recorded? 

I cannot possibly run through each track, as it is a complete whole. I can say that it was written in two sessions separated by several years and it is the most evil thing I’ve produced.


5- What equipment do you use when playing/recording?

 I have a professionally equipped studio now, but this is no matter. When I started I had only a computer, a guitar and a half stack. Anything will do. The music comes from a source outside this reality and I make do with whatever is around me. Whatever sound the song requires I will use the equipment that serves it best.


6- Have you played live as a band? How was it?

 Live performances took place between 2018 and 2019. Playing with a band is rigorous. At times it can be enjoyable, but the goal of this art is to remain pure. Live performance is not as important as the recorded product.


7- What’s it like as a BM band in USA now?’ what difficulties/benefits have you had? 

Black metal is a bloated and tired genre. Most US black metal artists are trend hoppers and posers. Screw the weak.


8- What’s the extreme music scene like there in USA now? Recommend some new local bands for our readers to check out… 

As I just said, the US is not the place to look for originality. For original sounding black metal look to Canada, Finland, France, even South America. Now there are incredible artists and bands in the US, and the festival scene is starting to grow, but opportunities are minimal at best. The US does not value artists as European and South American countries do.


9- What are your plans for Internment for the future? 

I have no plans other than to perpetuate the spread of darkness. Perhaps another album, perhaps not.


10- Do you have any other projects? 

My pagan black metal band Vanagandr (US) is active and releasing albums. Thoth Nemesis will release a new album in the next year or so


11- If you could play with any musician, live or dead, who would it be and why? 

Jimi Hendrix. He’s the most important rock guitar player who ever lived and he successfully channeled raw emotion into a tangible form like no one else ever had before or since.


12- What are your top 5 albums of all time and why?

 I hate these lists.


13- Would you like to add anything for our readers?? May your suffering result in the power to defy all obstacles.

Hails and AVE 666                                                                                                                                      Internment contacts                                                                                                                                        https://internment.bandcamp.com/                                                                                                               https://www.facebook.com/Internment666                                                                                                   


Arrogant Destruktor interview conducted by Jay posted on 5-3-24

 



This is jay reporting from Bogota, Colombia…

Today I’ll be talking with Adam from UK Black Metal Monster, Arrogant Destruktor..

Hi Adam, thanks for taking the time out of your busy schedule to talk to our avid readers….

1- Tell us all about Arrogant Destruktor.. when/where/why was the band formed? Who is in the band?

I (A.R) play guitar and bass on the albums, but just play bass live….Lewis Chrimes plays guitar live, A.T does vocals and Clive Parkinson plays drums. Me and A.T just decided to do some music with no real ambitions as such, but ended up doing a couple of albums then we got a couple of extra members after a few years and started playing live etc and slowly intensified from there.


2- Run us through your discography and tell our readers where they can get their claws on some physical editions….

Well we did 2 demos back in 2013/2014, then we recorded 2 newer tracks and added those to the demo songs which turned into our debut “Amidst the Blackest Void” on Wolfspell records in Poland. We did a split cd on Wolfspell with Wrang from Poland. Then in 2016 we released “Commandments Of War and Necromancy” which was a step on in terms of quality I think….then the next album “No Fucking Mercy” came out on CD (Void Wanderer) and cassette (Analog Ragnarok). Our latest album “Written in Blood from the Blade” came out on CD last year and now Masters Of Kaos will be releasing the cassette and vinyl versions which should be killer! We recorded a Master’s Hammer cover exclusively for the cassette version so collectors should track a copy down.


3- Tell us about the new material you’re working on now…

Since the new album was released we’ve already got 8 or 9 tracks ready for what might appear on our next album.


4- You’ve got quite a reputation as being a solid and entertaining live band… tell us about your best gigs and the gigs you have coming up for 2024…

A lot of bands judge their best gigs by how many people they played to or how much merch they sold blah blah blah but for us my favourite gigs were both in Worcester here on the UK playing a tiny venue put on by Malcolm of Sadistic Screams zine. Both had a cool underground vibe and the crowd were killer both times. We did an audio recording of the 2nd one we did there and you can hear the maniacs in the crowd going wild so that was a cool one to do definitely. Probably no live action from us until early 2025 now….we shall see.


5- What equipment and instruments do you use? Where do you record ? and what is the usual song writing process?

We’re not really equipment kinda guys, me and the guitarist play live just plugged straight into the amps, no fx pedals, backing tracks and that kind of bollocks. We have 2 settings…. off and on! We played a gig with one band had they had a really annoying guitarist who was setting his guitar up and doing warm ups, practising the scales on his guitar. Our guitarist was on his fourth can of Polish lager….different kind of warm up routine.


6- What first inspired you to become a metal musician?

I’d been listening to metal music since I was a child and started tape trading when I was 14 so picking up an instrument was a natural progression really. I played guitar but then I joined my first semi professional band as a bass player and I’ve done that primarily live ever since but I still record all the guitar tracks in the studio.


7- What have been the highest and lowest points so far in your career?

I’ve been lucky enough to tour Europe a couple of times in a previous band but as far as Arrogant Destruktor is concerned its always great to have people from bands you respect give you kind words about your music. We’ve had praise from Emperor’s Bard Eithun, Trevor Strnad(R.I.P) from The Black Dahlia Murder and The Magus of Necromantia. We recorded a cover of Shaman for the Necromantia tribute cd and also appears on Written in Blood from the Blade.

What is your opinion of the evolution in Black Metal over recent years and how do you think it will sustain itself in the years to come?

I’m not sure how much of it has evolved in recent years, or if it has I’ve stayed pretty much ignorant and listened to the old stuff haha.


8- Do you have any other projects? Tell us about them…

I did a hardcore punk band called Mandatory Choices a couple of years ago, just did a one off tape release just for fun….I’ve also done a darkwave project just with synthesiser and a female vocalist. Might see the light of day at some point.


9- What is the current UK scene like ? Recommend some up and coming bands for our readers to check out…

We had Abdicatrix support us at one of gigs Sadistic Screams organized that I mentioned earlier….their album is killer. But I generally find bands from overseas more interesting.


10- What are your top five metal albums of all time and why?

If we’re talking top 5 general metal albums I’d say:                                                                                     Coroner – Grin

Neolithic – The Personal Fragment of Life.

Katatonia – Brave Murder Day

Disharmonic Orchestra – Not to be Undimensional Conscious.

Pungent Stench – Club Mondo Bizarre

Top 5 black metal albums it’s hard to narrow down to 5 but these tend to be at the top of the all time list:

Dissection – Storm Of The Light’s Bane

Masters Hammer – Ritual

Burzum – Hvis Lyset Tar Oss

Necromantia – Scarlet Evil Witching Black

Abigor – Verwustung, Invoke The Dark Age


11- If you could play with any musician , live or dead, who would it be and why?

GG Allin


12- Would you like to add anything for the young musicians out there that are looking to follow in your footsteps?

Don’t do it.

A massive thanks to Adam and the mighty Arrogant Destruktor…

Hails!!!!                                                                                                                                                      Arrogant Destruktor                                                                                                                                       https://arrogantdestruktor.bandcamp.com/                                                                                                   https://www.facebook.com/arrogantdestruktor                                                                                             https://www.instagram.com/arrogantdestruktorblackmetal/

Inhaling The Infestation  is the debut release from Tennessee's death metal band Chunked.The songs on the debut are primitive and raw death metal that are done with powerful guitars and drums.The guitars are played with a mix of heavy mid paced guitars that are played with crushing patterns.The guitars do speed to a faster pace throughout a few of the songs to give each song a nice mix.The vocals are deep death metal growls that are ferocious in the delievery.Chunked  have crafted a great debut  of classic brutality that is enjoyable to listen to.Looking forward to hearing more from  these guys in the future.

Stimmung interview done by Jay Posted on 3-29-24

 

HI, THIS IS JAY REPORTING FROM BOGOTA, COLOMBIA

TODAY, I’M LUCKY ENOUGH TO BE TALKING TO STIMMUNG, FROM RUSSIA

HI Man, THANKS FOR TAKING THE TIME TO TALK TO OUR READERS.


1- Tell us about the roots of STIMMUNG when where and why did you decide to form the band?

Beginning of Stimmung starts in summer of 2022 when I recorded my first track. It was instrumental cause I was only one who was in the project. Then Shoggoth joined in as vocalist and little bit later we starts record first demo named "Gravkulden Til Begavelsessalmer". My first track I recorded was included in the demo but now with Shoggoth's vocals. All artwork for CD I made by myself except logo that was drawn by Shoggoth's girlfriend. First demo was released by Zaindevevshaya Ryabina Records. Also we made edition of CD by outself.


2- You recently rereleased your stunning debut album, GRAVKULDEN TIL BEGRAVELSESSALMER, it is an absolute monster of an album,. Run us through it and tell our readers where they can get copies …I am curious to know what the follow up will be like ..Tell us about the new material you have….

Me and Shoggoth planning to release full- length album. We has some stuff like riffs and lyrics.


3- What were your musical influences growing up?

Most of the time I inspired by old school like Vlad Tepes, Black Murder, Mutiilation, Tundra, Grausamkeit.


4- When did you start playing music? And what was your first instrument?

I started studying music at about the age of 10 in connection with admission to music school. My first instrument was a guitar. Then, about 3 years later, I bought a Stagg electric guitar for the first time. I have only one to this day, I recorded all my releases on it. Then, I bought myself a computer and specifically started making music. I was recording, learning to "mix", working on my tracks.


5- Do you have any other side projects apart from Stimmung?

Besides the Stimmung I have many projects. Cranial Bifurcation, Regurgitation Excrement, Manifestation Morbidity, Dissection Foetus, Hygroma, Endometrosacrococcygesis, Hexenzauber.


6- Tell us about the current Black Metal scene in Russia. Recommend some new and upcoming bands…

I never really watch on Russian black metal scene, probably it's because I don't listen it. I remember only a few bands as Wintercult, Dubak, Altwals and Wintaar.


7- What are your top 5 albums of all time?

It's a March to the Black Holocaust (Vlad Tepes/Belkètre), Feasts (Black Murder), Vampires of Black Imperial Blood (Mutiilation), Satanic Blood Angel (Von), Ugjennkjennelige (Grausamkeit).


8- If you could play with any musician, live or dead, who would it be?

It would be Meynach of Mutiilation.


9- There is an ever-growing post-pandemic wave of young, talented artists, how do you see the scene developing over the next few years?

There's no developing. Black metal becoming more popular and it's lost his status "Kvlt".


10- - what do you think are the main differences between the ‘old school’ and the so called ‘new school’ of extreme music?

Old school is basis and canon, "new school" is more progressive.


11- Where would you like to take Stimmung? Do you have future plans to play live?

I don't know but I think somewhere in Russia probably. But in others countries should be ok.


12- Do you have any wise words to offer for any young artists that would like to follow in your footsteps?

Make music not do a shit.


13- would you like to add anything for our readers?

Thank to all who support Stimmung. I am very grateful to them.

Muchas gracias por sus preguntas.

A massive thanks to Stimmung

Spasibo!

Thanks for your time man and we’re eagerly anticipating your new material.

Hails!

Singapore's death metal maniacs return with a brand new release of furious and relentless old school death metal.The guitars are played with a much faster guitar pace  in the new songs.The guitarist does write and perform some well executed guitar passages and writes some memorable solo's entertwined into the songs.The drumming is top notch with some chaotic fast drums that are done with power.The drummer does slow to a more controlled drum pace in a few of the songs to give each song a nice mix.The  vocals are heavy old school death metal growls that are done with powerful growls.Nocturnal Dominion Of Death  is another great release from Singapore's Vrykolakas.                                              Vrykolakas                                                                                                                                                     https://www.facebook.com/vrykobrutaldeath                                                                                               https://www.instagram.com/vrykolakas_sg_1991/                                                                                       Satanath Rec.                                                                                                                                                https://satanath.com/merch.html                                                                                                                  https://satanath.bandcamp.com/album/sat372-vrykolakas-nocturnal-dominion-of-death-2024                 https://www.instagram.com/satanathrecords/                                                                                               IBDC.                                                                                                                                                            https://ironbloodanddeath.bandcamp.com/album/nocturnal-dominion-of-death                                        https://www.facebook.com/ibdc666/                                                                                                           https://www.instagram.com/jaraantoniob/                                                                                                    https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOZ52OrPTQPiUGVl3fNnbUQ                                                      Paragon Rec.                                                                                                                                                  https://www.paragonrecords.org/                                                                                                                 https://www.facebook.com/paragonrecordsli/                                                                                              https://www.instagram.com/paragon_records_official/
