• I am very happy when I have the chance to talk with great musicians that have contributed a lot (each one at his own genre) to the metal scene and are still easy to approach and down to earth. So, without much effort I had the chance to have this talk with Phil Fasciana from Malevolent Creation having as a main purpose their upcoming release "The Will To Kill". So see what he revealed to us...

• We started in Buffalo,NY in 1987 and recorded our 1st demo that same year.Since then it has been one wild ride! I have seen band members come and go and come back again,but it has been fun and a lot of hard work as well.We are set to release our 8th studio album in November and our music gets heavier with each passing year.

2.HOW DID YOU SELECT THIS NAME?WHAT DO YOU WANT TO SAY? THAT YOU CREATE MALEVOLANCE OR YOU ARE CREATURES OF MALEVOLANCE?

• We had a song called Malevolent Creation when we first formed,and we had no name for the band.We were about to play our first show and we needed a name so we chose Malevolent Creation as a name and kept it.We are definitely creatures of Malevolence!

3.YOU ARE PREPARING TO ENTER THE STUDIO! TELL US A FEW THINGS ABOUT IT. HAVE YOU GOT ANY NEW SONGS READY? WILL YOU ADD SOME NEW ELEMENTS IN YOUR MUSIC?

• New album is already recorded and it is full of some of the heaviest song's we have recorded to date.Very thrash/grind sounding!!!!

4.YOU WILL ALSO RERELEASE SOME OLD STUFF. CAN YOU TELL US EXACTLY WHAT THIS IS AND WHEN IT WILL BE READY?

• It has just been released,it's a re-release of Envenomed with some bonus track's of remakes of two demo songs from 87 and 89 and a cover of Dark Angel's "Perish In Flames".

• The music allways comes first for me,but the lyric's are also very important because they tell the stories of our twisted outlook on reality and the horrors of real life.

• Me,Rob and Kyle also have HatePlow,but it is on hold ever since Kyle(vokills)has joined M.C. We will record one more HatePlow album in the near future.

• If we have influenced someone that is great and hopefully the music gives them the same feeling it gives to me.(Like beating the shit out of somebody!!!)

• We are allway's looking for good metal band's for Arctic.I personally prefer to sign band's that are extreme,but we have an open mind and have released cd.'s that are not so extreme.The band's have to be good and willing to promote there band by touring.That's what we mostly look  for in a band.

• Metal people are usually all cool.It is like an army.People into metal are like no others.The only thing i don't like is how trendy metal can be at times.

• It was a very terrible and sad tragedy here in the US,and people are still recovering from it,but thing's are better now and hopefully it will stay this way.Terrorism is gay and for cowards!!!

• Many times i wanted to end our band,but i love music to much to stop.I hope we can continue for a while longer because i feel we still have a lot of murder to offer!

• Metal can be cool with an Orchestra,but is not cool when mixed with Rap!!!!!

• Metal will never be as big as pop,so any big exposure for a metal band is good for everyone in the metal scene.That's just my opinion.

14.WHICH IS THE MOST IRRITATING QUESTION SOMEONE'S EVER DONE TO YOU AND WHICH QUESTION WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE ASKED AND NO ONE EVER DID? ANSWER IT.

• I don't understand this question, i'm sorry!

• I'd like to be around in the  Future,about 500 years from now.I wouldn't miss a thing!!!!

16.YOU HAVE VISITED GREECE FOR LIVE SHOWS. WHICH ARE YOUR IMPRESSIONS? WOULD YOU LIKE TO COME AGAIN?

• I have played in Greece twice and it was amazing both times.When our new album is released i'm sure we will be coming back.I can't wait!!!!!

17.THIS IS THE END OF OUR INTERROGATION! I THINK YOU PASS THE EXAMS :).IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU WANT TO ADD?

• Look for our new album titled "The Will To Kill",it will be released in November 2002.Check our website for more info and upcoming tour's!!!! Thanx for your support!!!!
