Interview with Horrific Visions

 

1.Hello please introduce yourself to the readers?

Hey everyone! This is Conrad the vocalist of Horrific Visions.

2.When did you first discover brutal death metal and what is it about this genre of music that drew you in and keeps your interest over the years?

I would have to say my late high school years 2008 - 2009ish. I think Decrepit Birth ‘And Time Begins’ was one of the first BDM records I ever heard and just kept diving deeper from there. The diversity of styles we have in this genre is really what I love about it. You can get as guttural as Inherit Disease or Cerebral Effusion, but then get brutal more annunciating style vocals like Deeds of Flesh or Gorgasm. It’s the sick evil riffs and the pummeling drum work that really makes BDM what it is though.

3.Who were the first bands that you discovered? Who are some of the current bands that you have been listening to?

Well I mentioned a few in the last question. My all-time favorite would be Deeds of Flesh (up until ‘Crown of Souls’) with ‘Reduced to Ashes’ being my all-time favorite record… but Inherit Disease, Gorgasm, Guttural Secrete, Condemned, Inveracity, and the list could go on… as for what I am jamming lately, it’s not brutal death but the new Neurosis record is sick. For BDM I have been jamming Protrusion, Squassation, Dead Congregation, and Nithing.

4.Horrific Visions was started in 2014 what gave you guys the idea and inspiration to start this band? What is the current line up?

We began as a side project spawning off of the band I drum for Defiled Crypt. I wanted to start doing vocals, and Chris who was playing bass in Defiled Crypt at the time wanted to play guitar. At that time we had Cullen Condon on drums and Chris Aguirre on bass. Unfortunately both of our brothers have passed away and we keep this going in honor of them. The current lineup is:

Conrad Heinemeyer - Vocals

Chris Rossmeier - Guitar

Mason Vickers - Guitar

Cody Hancock - Bass

Rene Martinez – Drums

5.Remnants Of Atrophy is the debut full length how long did it take the band to write the music for the debut? Does the whole band work on the music or does one member usually write everything?

We have been working on these songs for the last year or so. The writing is a conjoined effort between all of them and I just figure out my vocals once songs are done.

6.Who usually handles writing the lyrics for the band and what are some topics written about on the debut? Which usually comes first the lyrics or the music?

I pretty much write all the lyrics for the band. We try to stick to real life atrocities. Things that torment our world. It depends sometimes I’ll wait to see how songs are sounding, but I can usually just write lyrics and have them ready.

7.Besides the upcoming release does the band have any other merchandise currently available for the readers to purchase? If yes what is available and where can the readers buy it?

https://horrificvisions.bandcamp.com/album/monopoly-on-violence

8.Has Horrific Visions had the opportunity to play very many live shows over the years? If yes what have been some of the most memorable for you all?

I would say by far the sickest and most memorable show we have ever played was Bogota Death Grind Fest last May in Colombia! We have also done tours with Cenotaph and Internal Suffering.

9.Are there any tours or shows planned in support of Remnants Of Atrophy if yes where will the band be performing? Who are some bands you will be sharing the stage with?

We have a tour kick off show in Austin @ Crowbar 5/2 to get us ready to hit the road with Defeated Sanity, Inferi, & Organectomy!

10. Horrific Visions comes out of the brutal death metal scene in Texas what is your opinion of the scene in Texas over the years?

It has had its ups and downs but I feel it is pretty solid and we are spoiled with how many sick bands we have here.

11.Who are your all-time favorite bands coming out of Texas? Are there any new bands you could recommend to the readers?

Sect of Execration, Exulcerate, Flesh Hoarder, Unnecessary Surgery, Viral Load, & Death File Red. As for newer bands, check out Arterial Vivisection. They’re really sick!

12.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 hit the gym, cook, play video games & smoke weed. Have beers with the boys. You know. Real dude shit.

13.Thank you for taking the time to fill this interview out do you have any final comments for the readers?

Thanks for checking this out. Be sure to grab a copy of our new record ‘Remnants of Atrophy’ on Comatose Music May 22nd and catch us on the road this May!

Interview with Datura

1.Hello please introduce yourselves to the readers? 1. Greetings! I am Dimas ! The unshakable father founder and embodiment of the Drunken receptions! Thank you for the opportunity to be published in your most worthy publication! It is very important for us! DATURA responds!

2.When did you first discover death metal music and what is it about this genre of music that you love? 2. Faced with this phenomenon still in my youth! I, Already being in search of true brutality, was familiar with the classics of world rock and heavy metal.After Cannibal Corpse, Napalm Death, Morbid Angel, Deicide, Suffocation, Pyrexia, Internal Bleeding ! I satisfied my initial thirst for brutality. And I'm still hunting in these jungles! In search of the truly brutal manifestation of the metaphysical meaning of not achieving perfection. It's about following the path. Cultivating teachings through hard work and prayer! One of the criteria for my rating of this topic is its difficulty and the potential for continuous growth!

3.Who were the first bands that you discovered?Who are your current favorite bands that you have been listening to? 3. In the previous question, I already touched on this briefly. I will add that in general, the global death metal scene is very strong and powerful! The glorious history and the direction towards the future are very encouraging! I don't miss any new releases. There are so many of them! Some albums and singles, despite their names, don't catch my attention. They pass me by. Occasionally, unknown artists release excellent music. Stay brutal!!! 4.Datura was started in 1999 what gave you all the idea to start this band?How did you choose the name Datura ? 4. Yes, that's true. The start was motivated by the band's desire to participate in a silent dialogue. Between past and future generations of people. People we haven't seen and won't see again. Through the universal language of musical forms. The name is harmoniously and logically derived from the concept of multi-facetedness and seven-voicedness. 5.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 Datura's music how would you best describe it? 5. The 1990s U.S. death scene. This is our foundation. The current influences are less limited, but they are essentially the same. Plus, there is a place for manifestations in the work of our band that are not related to anyone's influence. Datura's music is a brutal death metal of the second wave in the United States. It has a distinct original vision of the genre's overall stylistic development. 6.My Kingdom Is Not Of This World which was released through Coyote Rec. when did the band first come in contact with this label? 6. 2005 . The first disc released by us on this label! Since then we continue to work closely with this icon. Having also several projects under the general name D.B.S. Connected between themselves by a common idiology, a single base and participants. We cooperate with many labels. In the releases of our releases. 7.How long did it take the band to write the music for this releas? Does the whole band take part in the writing process or does one member usually write everything? 7. It took six years. We have a war in the country. This is the main thing that delays the implementation of what was planned. All participants participate in writing to varying degrees. This is especially true for each participant's own compositions 8.Where does the band draw inspiration for the lyrics?What are some topics written about on the new release?Which comes first for the band the music or the lyrics? 8. Music is immeasurably more important than the lyrics. They also have some importance. They are intended to be displayed on the CD tab. The themes of our lyrics are not new and have been beaten to death by the thousands of attempts of our great ancestors to touch the essence. Intuitive, spontaneous, and metaphorical grasping of the truth! These are our main themes. 9. There is plenty of everything. But we are not a recognized empire. There is no communication with the world. Therefore, nothing works through us. We hope the situation will change for the better after that. 10.Has Datura gotten to play very many live concerts over the years?What are some of the most memorable shows you have played over the years?Who are some bands you have shared the stage with? 10. We have performed 11 fire shows in 2025. Among them are the main events of our country. This is Coyote Brutal Fest - Moscow, MSR FEST - Maykop. and Kirovsk Kufley Fest. For us, this is a good indicator for staying in constant peak form. And the available willingness to implement in the best possible way! The live show is our most important sublimated existence. 11.Are their any shows or tours planned in support of My Kingdom Is Not Of This World? 11. The vast territories of our country and its allies, as well as the eternity of our country, are constantly anticipating our outings. Several dates are already known, including Simferopol, Sevastopol, Yevpatoria, and Feodosia. The Crimean tour is aimed at supporting us! 12.Besides Datura do any of the members currently work with other bands? If yes please tell the readers a little about them? 12. I'm the drummer and vocalist for Datura, and I play bass for Stalino - technical brutal death metal. I play guitar for Steam Hammer - stonercore, and I play drums for Megalodont - doomcore. I also sing for Vanstoring Insolobridition - death metal, and I play everything for Elizarov's Apparatus - avant-garde grind. Bassist Sasha - on the bass in Megalodont, Stalino guitar, Elizarov's Apparatus guitar, on something in Vanstoring insolobridishn. Vocal Andrey, vocal in Regurgitation Excrement. 13.When you need to take a break from working on new music or band business what do you like to do in your free time? 13. Music is our training and recreation. All members of the group are working class. And you have to work a lot. Therefore, no stupid hobbies. Only brutal!! Recreation in ecstasy! 14.Thank you for taking the time to fill this interview out do you have anything you would like to add before we end this interview? 14. Thank you very much for your attention.

Interview with Lust Of Decay

 

1.Hello please introduce yourself to the readers.

Hi, my name is Steve, I am the guitarist and backing vocalist for Lust of Decay.

2.At what age did you first discover death metal and what is it about this genre that you love so much?

I would guess I was in my mid to late teens is when I first discovered death metal… although I was into heavy music at a much younger age starting with some punk, hardcore and thrash metal before eventually finding my way to death metal… in my opinion death metal is just the ultimate form of all metal genres because of its aggression, brutality and complexity.

3.Who were the first bands that you listened to? Who are some of the current bands that you have been listening to?

Some of the first death metal bands that I was listening to was Morbid Angel, Suffocation, Cannibal Corpse, Malevolent Creation, Napalm Death and Deicide… from there I started to discover underground bands like Deeds of Flesh, Malignancy, Devourment, Brodequin and Mortal Decay… and to this day I still listen to all of those bands, plus some of my current favorites like Gorgasm, Defeated Sanity, Incinerate, NecroticGoreBeast, Dying Fetus and so many more…

4.Lust of Decay was started in 2000 what gave you all the idea to start this band? How did you all choose Lust of Decay for the band name?

We were just a group of young guys looking to write some brutal music. There were not any death metal bands in our immediate area, so we wanted to change that… prior to Lust of Decay we were pretty much a thrash metal band and over the course of a couple years we evolved into Lust of Decay. We had several different band names before we finally agreed and settled on Lust of Decay… and that’s who we’ve been ever since.

5.Who would you say are the band’s biggest influences and have they remained the same over the years? For the readers who may not have heard your music yet how would you best describe it?

In our early years we were highly influenced by bands like Lividity, Waco Jesus, Abuse, Skinless and Broken Hope… and with our new album ‘Entombed in Sewage’ I believe you can still hear those old school influences, in addition to other influences like Gorgasm, Suffocation and Dying Fetus.

6.Entombed In Sewage is the bands newest full length how long did it take the band to write the music for this release? Does the whole band take part in the writing process or does one member usually write everything?

Because we are all spread out in different cities and had limited rehearsals together, we were pretty slow writing this album, it took nearly five years to get this entire album written and recorded. For this new album I wrote all the music and Jay wrote all the lyrics… I would present the riffs at rehearsals, then we’d put everything together as a band to complete the songs.

7.Are the band’s previous releases still available for the readers to purchase? And does the band have any other merchandise currently available? If yes, what is available and where can the readers purchase it?

Yes, all three of our previous full lengths are available digitally… and two of them, ‘Infesting the Exhumed’ and ‘Purity Through Dismemberment’, are also available on CD. We have a couple shirt designs, patches and stickers available as well… plus the new ‘Entombed in Sewage’ merchandise that comes out on December 12th. Everything can be purchased at www.comatosemusic.com.

8.Has Lust of Decay had the opportunity to perform very many shows over the years? If yes, what have been some of the band’s most memorable shows? Who are some of your favorite bands that you have gotten to share the stage with?

Oh yes, Lust of Decay was extremely active between 2002 and 2007, we did a lot of shows and festivals during that time. We also had a brief return to performing live between 2014 and 2016 when we did a US tour and festivals. I would have to say that the Central Illinois Metalfests were most memorable for us though, it was just an entire weekend of brutal death metal with so many great bands and friends. We got to share the stage with some of the biggest and best bands in death metal like Cannibal Corpse, Nile, Deicide, Malevolent Creation, Suffocation, Dying Fetus, Mortician, Incantation, Obituary, Immolation, Exhumed… and the list goes on… we were very thankful to play shows and fests with so many of our heroes!

9.Are there any shows or tours planned in support of Entombed in Sewage? If yes, where will the band be performing? 

At this time we have no plans for any shows… perhaps that will change in 2026, but for now there’s nothing planned.

10.Besides Lust of Decay do any of the members currently work with other bands or solo projects? If yes, please tell the readers a little about them?

Yes, Jordan currently has a solo project called In-Conquered and Ryan is in the band Coathanger Abortion. Jay isn’t in any active bands at this time but did release albums with his other bands Cesspool of Vermin back in 2021 and Shuriken Cadaveric Entwinement in 2022. As for myself, I am not currently in any other bands, the last side project I was involved with was Purulent Necrosis back in 2019.

11.Thank you for taking the time to fill this interview out, do you have any final comments for the readers?

Thank you very much for this interview, we greatly appreciate the support! Lust of Decay is very excited for our new album ‘Entombed in Sewage’ to drop on December 12th and we hope that all of your readers will savor the sickness and brutality!                                                                                         Lust Of Decay                                                                                                                                                https://www.facebook.com/LustOfDecayOfficial                                                                                        https://www.instagram.com/lust_of_decay_official/?igshid=MTNiYzNiMzkwZA%3D%3D                    Comatose Music                                                                                                                                           https://www.comatosemusic.com/                                                                                                                 https://comatosemusic.bandcamp.com/album/entombed-in-sewage                                                            https://www.facebook.com/Comatosemusiclabel                                                                                        https://www.instagram.com/comatose_music/?utm_medium=copy_link                                                   

Interview with Putrevore

 

1.Hello please introudce yourselves to the readers?

Rogga - Rogga Johansson, maker of a lot of music I guess you could say. Guitarist, even though I wouldnt really label myself any good at that. In Putrevore Im anyways the guy doing the riffing.

2.At what age did you two first discover death metal music and what is it about this genre that drew you in?

Rogga - I grew up with heavy metal since I was a small kid, who borrowed and copied tapes from older friends. I dont know when it got more extreme really, I guess in sixth grade both more extreme metal and industrial music was getting more and more interesting to me and then a few years after I started making my own music really.

3.Who were the first bands that caught your attention?Who are some of the current bands that you all have been listening?

Rogga - Well the first bands that really made me love music was stuff like Iron Maiden and Judas Priest, WASP and Twisted Sister. Then I got into stuff like Dismember, but also industrial music like Skinny Puppy. As for current bands Im not very interested really, I more like old band and also like when they make new albums. I still listen to the new stuff they release. I think a new band I really enjoy though is High Parasite, very good stuff.

4.When did the two of you first meet and was it long before you started this band

Rogga - I think we came across each other maybe 25 years ago. I dont recall how but my guess would be that it was when Dave signed Paganizer to his label.

5.Who would you say are Putrevore's biggest influences and have they remained the same over the years?For the readers who may not have heard the band yet how would you describe the music?

Rogga - Actually Dave is my biggest influence when it comes to Putrevore haha. Sounds strange maybe but I have my own style of writing, and Dave told me to stop that haha, and make something more brutal and heavy and eeire. He told me to check out Funebre and Rottrevore and stuff like that, which I wasnt very familiar with, and then I simply tried to make music that was as heavy. I dont know how to describe Putrevore best but I try to make it as crushing as I can. But still I tend to put some melody work into it aswell.

6.Rogga J. you handle the guitars and bass for the band when did you first become interested in writing and performing music?Who are some of your biggest influences over the years?

Rogga - It was back in the sixth grade, when I was listening to both metal and industrial music. Then I tried making my own stuff with electronic gear, and then I started growling. And a few years later I also picked up the guitar, mainly because I didnt just wanna be the growler and try to describe my ideas to the guitarplayer, I felt it was easier if I just played  them myself. Then through the decades I have kept doing it, growling, making industrial music and playing guitar. I like to be diverse and do all theses different parts myself.

7.Dave R. you take care of the vocals for the band when did you first start growling and screaming? Do you do anything special to keep your voice healthy?

Dave - No, I don't really do anything special to take care of my voice, I live a normal life and the truth is that I don't usually sing except in rehearsals, recordings or live shows.

8.Who would you say are your favorite vocalist over the years?

Rogga - Ive always been very fond of Kam Lee and Dan Swanö.

9.Unending Rotten Cycle is the bands newest full length how long did it take to write the music for this release?How long would you say it takes to complete one song?

Rogga - Oh I dont recall really. when I start writing for an album it usually goes rather fast. So I would guess the whole album and the lyrics maybe took a couple of weeks. But then there's of corpse time added for arranging Dave's vocals and arranging drums by the drummer.

10.Besides the new release are the bands previous releases still availible for the readers to purchase?Besides physical cd's is their any other merchandise currently available? If yes what is availible and where can the readers purchase it?

Rogga - This is a Dave question!

11.Both of you have been involved in the Underground Metal scene for deacades what is it that has kept you active in the scene for so long?

Rogga - I love the music, its as simple as that. I love playing music and theres a lot of nice people as well thats nice to share ideas with and to work with.

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

Rogga - I like to spend time with the family, barbequing and drinking beer is also a great hobby haha.

13.Thank you for taking the time to fill this interview out do you have any final comments for the readers?

Rogga - yes of corpse, check out the new album!
