Hey, people! That east-oriented band makes arabic death metal, as they call it! So interesting genre, worth listening! Let’s seek into this band a little huh? I questioned them for ya…

1.Where did that arabic death metal idea come from?

• I'm listening to metal for years, they have put something from their culture into the music.. Eh, you may face arabesque in any TV channels, It was very easy to produce arabic melodies. Why should i repeat American or European music again? We decided to produce something original.

2.You have succeded I think but there is amateurity and this is perfect! The demo sounds like a home made one, right?

• Yes we are amateur, yes it is homemade, we used drum machines etc... We made our best. We have elements for the next releases and we will release new things soon.

3.Which are the reactions till now?

• Better than I thought so far. We wanted to satisfy ourselves but we got good materials in our hands. We get good and bad reactions of course. But they mostly liked it. But we wanted to do something better, this is what we could because of the school...

4.Your performance per age  is promising...

• I wanted to do something when I was young..

5.And this work made you earn experience? How are the sales going?

• Yes. Sales are better than we expected. It sold the second party also .. In fact we can't supply enough for everyone...

6.Don't try to ! Let this first demo be rare!

• If there are people who wants to buy, let'em do! It will prepare our future!

7.Okay.. What does CONSTANTINOPOLIS mean for you?

• I'm interested in history.. I always wanted to live in the past.. This name for Istanbul always interested me so I chose that name. And i'm proud of the place i live in. Has a good past.. CONSTANTINOPOLIS is a good name. Sounds good. Magnificient..

8.Are the songs based on a concept or they are intependent to each other?

• No there are no ONE concept. But in OLD WORLD and CONSTANTINOPOLIS we focused on desire for the old ISTANBUL. Something like consuming one city one beauty.

9.Who is that Wabu the Barbarian?

• Wabu is a fantastic individual, a creation of a friend of mine. He grows up, one day he leaves his tribe and into new horizons, to discover the world. He goes on and on until he finds a residence. But here, he can't find the sincerity that's in his tribe. He meets forgers and swindlers here and he feels regret about leaving his home. He's treated like an animal here. In fact it's on the cruelty of man. I liked that story and i used that on a song whose lyrics I couldn't write...

10.You are very creative haha! Are there concerts soon?

• I wish so. We just got a drummer. We won't turn down any offers. Even we won't be in any gigs, we will be always functional. We will produce...

11.That's all I wanted to ask,do you have anything to add?

• Nothing to add actually... Thanks to anyone who supports us and you, who gave us this opportunity for the interview. We want to be in solidarity with other bands from Istanbul. Wish everything gets better.. (that means things are not good nowadays right? Sony).
