GRINDCORE FROM NETHERLANDS : 25 YEARS OF INHUME IN INTERVIEW ! (ENGLISH AND FRANÇAIS)

Image
Hi Inhume! You are celebrating your 25 years of existence with a beautiful digipack released at Xenokorp records. Can you remind us the origins of the band, your influences back then, and what did you want to do with Inhume? Hello all, first of all thanks for the kind words and what can i tell you, Inhume set out to be the most brutal band ever! We all came from other bands in different styles of metal but with the same interest to start this new band. At that time we were heavily influenced by bands like Terrorizer, Napalm Death, Carcass, Brutal Truth etc . but i think we found our own style right away. The initial try out consisted of 9 people but it immediately setled at 5 and when recording the first demo back in ’95 i joined. I had been in a band w ith drummer R oel in the previous 4 or 5 years so we already knew each other quite well. Your genre of music is often classified as “Brutal Death Metal/Grindcore” what do you think about this appellation and does it fit you?...

  "Je conseille l'écoute d'interviews de Johann Chapoutot, historien du nazisme, qui explique en quoi le libéralisme et le management sont les dignes héritiers du IIIᵉ Reich" Ville de LE DESESPOIR Bonjour FB, Le Désespoir peut se définir comme un groupe de black metal atmosphérique, antifasciste et empli d'une immense mélancolie digne des plus grandes œuvres en matière de black metal dépressif. Peux tu nous en dire plus sur la naissance de ce projet fascinant ? Bonjour, Le Désespoir est un projet très personnel, pour expliquer l'origine de ce projet, j'ai besoin de résumer mon rapport à la musique. J'ai commencé les percussions à 6 ans, j'ai été dans plusieurs harmonies d'écoles de musique, orchestres départementaux et un orchestre national. J'ai tout le temps écouté beaucoup de musique (du jazz, de la musique classique, …). J'ai commencé le metal par Iron Maiden, Metallica, Scorpion. Pendant mon lycée, j'ai découvert le me...

INTERVIEW - ENGLISH + FRANÇAIS - BAL-SAGOTH - ULTIMA THULE IS STILL SHAKING ! - EPIC CULT BLACK METAL FROM UK

Image
Battle Magic by Bal-Sagoth Bal-Sagoth! For those of you who were lucky enough to experience the intense emotions of the 90's in Black Metal, this is the still vivid memory of an epic symphonic Black Metal band from Great Britain, who was holding the sword high in front of  Cradle Of Filth in the second half of the decade. It was a literate band, which was the emblem of a dreamlike Black Metal, full of fantasy heroism, with Lovecraft, Robert E. Howard and the myths of antique history as its inspiration. A band that left a lasting impression on me. That's why I'm proud to reproduce here the interview given to me by Byron Roberts, leader of the band and Fantasy writer, where he agreed to come back with me on each album of the band, going through the eras, but also to talk to us about his literary work and his present and future projects!  Hello Byron, and thank you for doing me the honor of answering my questions...Let's start with the present before we dive into the glor...

Ottosson, aka 145188, who got together with like-minded musicians inorder to finally breathe life into his vision, something he had not been able to do with any previous bands and musicians he had worked with. Through music and lyrics VANHELGA, which, translated from Swedish means "Profane", explores the darker side of humanity" (Vanhelga's bandcamp presentation) POSITIVE MUSIC FOR POSITIVE PEOPLE ! VANHELGA  Vanhelga is a Depressive Black Metal from Sweden created back in 2001...Can you tell us a little more about your fondation ? It did not start out as a Depressive Black Metal band. I was in another band back then and I felt like it was a waste of time so I decided to create a one-man band called VANHELGA and in the early days it was more about occultism and philosophy rather than DSBM. We don’t like to label our music so as ...

INTERVIEW NUMEN - Basque Black Metal ! English & French Text - Les Acteurs de L'Ombre Productions - Pierre Avril

Image
Erre de Numen Numen is a superb example of Black Metal from the Spanish Basque Country, and also a veteran band, having been around since 1997. To mark the release of their latest album, “Erre,” on Les Acteurs de L'Ombre Productions, I had the chance to interview them. Hello, Numen. Could you introduce yourself and tell us about your new album, “Erre”? Hi, greetings from Arrasate—Lander here. Thank you very much for having us. The new album consists of five tracks. It’s still Numen, but there’s been an evolution in technical skill and song composition. Without straying from our roots, it's aggressive, straight-ahead black metal—Numen in its purest form. As for the lyrical content, the entire album is conceptual. 'Erre' means 'To Burn', and It deals with the witch hunts carried out in Iparralde back in the early 17th century. Your songs explore the ancient beliefs of the Basque Country. Could you give us some examples of these beliefs and the rituals associate...

INTERVIEW WITH DANIEL LUKES, STANIMIR PANAYOTOV AND JACI RAIA ABOUT THE BOOK BLACK METAL RAINBOWS   Black Metal Rainbows de Black Metal Rainbows PIERRE AVRIL LE SCRIBE DU ROCK WWW.WEBZINELESCRIBEDUROCK.COM   Hi Daniel, Jaci and Stanimir ! Thank you for answering my questions! You have published a superb book entitled Black Metal Rainbows , featuring a collective reflection—produced by numerous contributors—on queer and anarchist black metal that is inclusive and rebellious. Can you tell us about this work? Daniel Lukes: The book came together following a “black metal theory” symposium that took place in Dublin in 2015, with a goal of injecting some color and some queerness into that field of discussion, which was arguably emphasized mainly one aspect of the black metal equation: the Nietzschean obscurantist/elitist side. The conference featured Drew Daniel, who notoriously presented his paper in corpsepaint, and the logo was done by Christoph Szpajdel, who was fresh off worki...
