Ash wasn't in the mood when he answered this. Well, i don't know if he is in the mood sometimes ? Well, after all, it's a real Black Metal mood so...Thanks to him to answer all these questions and all apologies for telling too much the B.... word (Burzum !) I understand it can be annoying ! Enjoy this interview with one of the biggest and greatest band of the whole genre ! Le Scribe

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...

Jours Pâles by Asphodèle Avec "Jours Pâles" Asphodèle ont sorti un album marquant l'année 2019 de son empreinte. Audrey, chanteuse dans le duo et également génitrice de Malenuit, n'est pas une inconnue, pusique vous retrouverez facilement les groupes dont elle a fait partie dans le passé et qu'elle ne souhaite pas évoquer ici. Numéro 18 de mon TOP 50 (et quelques) de l'année 2019, "Jours Pâles" est vraiment un bel album, a la fois authentique et foutrement original. Audrey évoque aussi pour nous son projet Malenuit, tout aussi recommandable. Venez vous perdre dans la fausse douceur qu'Audrey distille pour mieux vous emprisonner... Malenuit by Malenuit - Incandescente Entretien avec AUDREY SYLVAIN Bonjour Audrey ! Merci de répondre a mes questions. Tu viens juste de sortir le premier album de ton nouveau groupe Asphodèle, que je trouve absolument splendide ! Peux tu nous en parler un peu ? Bonjour ! Asphodèle est un projet...

INTERVIEW VINDSVAL OCT 2019  "Je ne peux pas me contenter du hasard ou du non-sens, mon esprit refuse complètement cette idée dont beaucoup semblent aujourd'hui s’accommoder" (Vindsval) William Sheller chante qu'il veut être un homme heureux...je ne sais pas si c'est possible, mais en tout cas, pour moi, avoir le privilège de cette interview est une des choses qui se rapprochent le plus du bonheur. C'est la deuxième fois que le maestro se confie a moi, et cette fois encore plus longuement. C'est sans doute son interview la plus intime, la plus personnelle, et, selon ses mots, probablement la dernière qu'il donnera, l'homme préférant la solitude du créateur. Une dernière fois donc, et ceci nous a permis d'aborder l'enfance de Vindsval, son rapport a l'art, a l'esthétique, au showbiz, la philosophie, la poésie, la lumière, l'histoire...et le black metal, bien sûr. Bref, sans doute la meilleure interview que j'ai eu l'oppor...

Interview with No Point In Living (Yu) ENGLISH VERSION/VERSION  FRANÇAISE Hi No Point In Living. You are a Japanese DSBM band created in 2015. Can you describe the band to our readers and tell us more about your history, influences and purposes ?   Hi, I’m Yu of No Point in Living and am author of a book called “Depressive Suicidal Black Metal Guidebook”. -My History- I was born in 1996. I started playing the guitar when I was 12 years old and started to listen to heavy metal music same time. At that time, I often listened to Slipknot, Marilyn Manson, Korn (is still favorite) and etc. Then I searched many subgenre of metal music. Death Metal, Gothic Metal, Doom Metal and etc. I listened to many bands like Children of Bodom, Arch Enemy and etc. After that, I found Black Metal. I was really impressed by Black Metal, Its very fast tempo, evil voice, beautiful melody.   I used to listen to Mayhem, Burzum, Darkthrone and other 90s bands. I pr...

LAST DAYS OF HUMANITY IS THE EXTREMIEST BAND EVER Last Days of Humanity is the most extreme band ever ! They did a kind of Goregrind splitted with Noise and extreme speed that no one can beat. The good news is that the guys are back ! The bad news ? Your ears will bleed ! Interview with the band ! (the interview was realised in October 2018) Last days of Humanity was created in 1989 in the city of Volkel, Nederlands by you and Erwin de Wit. The band had a lot of lineup changes after that, but you will be the pillar of the band. Into your first demo, in 1992, after the intro (dead can dance), I think your music was kind of influenced by extreme noisegrind acts such as Anal Cunt, do you agree ? And can you tell us more about your formation ? The bands you were listening to ? At that time we were listening to all kinds of extreme music, from 7 minutes of nausea, Agathocles, Fear of God to Morbid Angel, Dark angel, Slayer, Sodom, Kreator. As you see from noise, grindcore to ...

Since the 90's Sigh is giving us, lucky bastards we are, a very singular way of Black Metal with a lot of elements from different kinds of music. No limits could be the word when it comes to Sigh...Somewhere inbetween Classic Thrash Metal, Psychedelism, Progressive Metal and Black Metal from outer space, there is Sigh ! Here's the story, so far...

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...
