Our fearless
reporter managed to get in touch with terrorists... Hey! Don't worry we
're talking about music terrorists. We had a long conversation with Tom
of DYSMORFIC. ANTI - MUSICAL TERRORISM reigns on!
1.BRIEF US ON THE BAND HISTORY.
HOW WAS IT CREATED?WHAT DID YOU WANT TO ACHIEVE WITH DYSMORFIC?
-
1-we formed in late 1999. we started
with some standard brutal death, then we turned to grindcore. our band
means a lot to us; of course it's a lot of fun, but it's also a way to
express ourselves,our feelings and our ideas. musically, we wanted to destroy
music!!...
2.HOW DID YOU SELECT THIS BAND NAME?
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO YOU? AMONG WHICH OTHER NAMES WAS IT SELECTED?
-
2-well, i found it on a poster at the
hospital: it comes from a neurological desease. it was the only name we
came up with, and we thought it suited the music we play. imagine, some
guys going out of their heads while listening to us!!
3.WHICH ARE YOUR INFLUENCES? WHICH
BANDS DO YOU ADMIRE? ARE THERE ANY BANDS YOU DESPISE?
-
3-we have a lot of influences! speaking
for myself, i love the grindcore scene, bands such as sore throat, agathocles,
abstain, old napalm death, carcass, nasum, warsore...the list is endless.
i am into punk and crust as well, and i could mention a lot of bands as
well...yes, there are bands i hate: all the new metal crap, marylin manson,
all the cheesy boy bands...fuck'em all!
4.INFORM US ON THE BAND RELEASES. ARE
YOU ABLE TO SAY THAT YOU HAVE YOU WITNESSED ANY EVOLUTION?
-
4-we have:split cd with drogheda, full
ep "born to be fucked", split ep with ulcerrhoea, split tape with warsore,
splitcd-r with agathocles (also on tape), yeah, we evolved a lot i think.
when we started off, we were very influenced by brutal shit like dying
fetus, mortician...we still love those bands but we did not feel so comfortable
in playing brutal death. now we play 100% grind and that's what exactly
we wanna do!!
5.HOW WAS THIS SPLIT 7'' CREATED? TELL
US SOME THINGS FOR THAT. HOW DID YOU SELECT THE OTHER BAND ULCERRHOEA?
-
5-well, we have been friends with ulcerrhoea
for a long time, so we talked about a cooperation. both bands are so happy
for this release!! it means total friendship and mutual support. by the
way, ulcerrhoea kick some serious ass!!!!!
6.WHAT ARE YOUR LYRICS TALKING ABOUT?
WHAT THINGS INSPIRE YOU IN WRITING?
-
6-i guess our lyrics are socio-personal
lyrics. they could be considered socio-political, but there's a lot of
my personal life in there.
7.DO YOU HAVE ANY PLANS FOR THE FUTURE?
WILL YOU DO ANY LIVE SHOWS?
-
7-we are writing new songs for more
releases and of course we'll play live!! we've been very active on stage
since the very beginning!!
8.WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY FOR THE ITALIAN
SCENE? THESE LAST FEW YEARS IT HAS BECOME VERY POPULAR FOR ITS POWER METAL
BANDS, BUT WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE EXTREME METAL FIELD?
-
8-you're right about the power metal
crap..i hate it!! we have a lot of good extreme acts anyway. just think
about cripple bastards!!! other killer bands are bastard saints, nefas,
mind snare, woytijla, umigliazione, brainwash, a lot of others!! also,
there are a lot of zines about grind and extreme music! really, there are
a lot of active people here!!!
9.WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU WEREN'T
ABLE TO COMPOSE MUSIC?
-
9-don't know really...maybe i'd be
in a madhouse!!!
10.YOU WAKE UP ONE DAY AND SUDDENLY
YOU REALIZE THAT YOU CAN'T PLAY AND COMPOSE MUSIC ANY MORE. WHAT WILL YOU
DO?
-
10-go crazy, probably..really, i need
to write and play, it's kinda therapy for me to release my anger.
11.IF TIME TRAVEL WAS POSSIBLE, WHICH
HISTORICAL PERIOD WOULD YOU LIKE TO VISIT AND WHY?
-
11-surely before humanity appeared.
the earth would have a been a better place for sure with no men around!!!
12.IF YOU HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO CREATE
A VIDEOCLIP, HOW WOULD YOU LIKE IT TO BE?
-
12-uh, never thought about actually...maybe
us playing live+images from our on the road life...
13.WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE VANISHED
FROM THE WORLD?
-
13-i'd love to see a world with no
wars, greed, envy....you know, equality for everyone.
