Whorrid
Whorrid are consisted of
3 individuals crazy for heavy metal who live by the moto "Die For Metal...Live
For Death". I think this phrase speaks for itslef! The only thing I will
tell you is to check out this new interesting death metal act! They worth
your attention!!!
1.HELLO!SINCE YOU ARE A NEW BAND I'D LIKE
YOU TO GIVE ME SOME INFO ON YOUR HISTORY. WHAT KIND OF PERSONS ARE WHORRID?
Ivan: Three individuals united by the love
of true metal that as a band just sprung up but have been living the life
of metal far longer than the existence of this band.
2.YOU HAVE RELEASED YOUR FIRST DEMO UNDER THE
NAME REDRUM AND NOW "BITCH BUTCHERS" IS RELEASED UNDE A DIFFERENT MONIKER.
AREN'T YOU AFRAID THAT YOU MIGHT LOSE SOME OF YOUR FANS BECAUSE OF THIS
CHANGE? ACTUALLY, ISN'T IT LIKE A NEW BEGINNING FOR YOU?
Andrew: On Redrum the line up went through
many changes and Bitch Butchers is a new beginning where missing pieces
were put together and a brotherhood was formed. Redrum was great but Whorrid
will be beyond that.
3.YOU NAMED THE ALBUM "BITCH BUTCHERS". WHAT EXACTLY
DO YOU MEAN BY THAT? HAVE YOU EVER BEEN ACCUSED OF SEXISM? WHAT DO YOU
THINK OF WOMEN?
Ed: Bitch Butchers originally was part of
a song title "Whore Hostage/Bitch Butcher".
A: But over time it developed in to our description
"Bitch Butchers of Metal".
I: Over the past 10 years it got ridiculous
with women's constant complaints of sexual harassment in everyday
life from law suits to pointing fingers at anyone that gives them a wrong
look. Bitch Butchers is directed to those people who think women should
be covered up from head to toe.
A: And those who follow trends and claim things
they are not. What do we think of women? We love women, especially young
dirty whores.
I: They should be appreciated for their bodies
and brains.
4.WHY DID YOU CHANGE THE BAND NAME? DID YOU HAVE
ANY PROBLEMS WITH OTHER BANDS REGARDING THE COPYRIGHT OF THE NAME?
A: We found a rapper with the name Redrum
and he had a couple of albums out already also there were a couple of alternative
bands with the same name so instead of changing the name later or
having confusion we changed it right away.
5.IN THE END OF YOUR BIO YOU WRITE "NO BULLSHIT
LYRICS". WHICH LYRICS DO YOU CONSIDER AS BULLSHIT? WHAT KIND OF LYRICS
DO YOU LIKE TO WRITE?
I: Bullshit lyrics are about being something
you are not or speaking of something you know nothing of.
A: About things that belong on pop records
not in metal.
I: I like to write about life and reality
and things that people go through in life.
E: Shit that pisses me off.
A: I write about what I feel inside and see
around me.
6.ANOTHER THING I'VE NOTICED IN YOUR SOUND IS
THAT YOU AVOID THE EFFECTS AND DRUM TRIGGERS. WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO DO
THAT? DO YOU WANT TO OFFER TO YOUR ALBUM A MORE REAL/LIVE FEELING?
E: To be different and not follow trends.
I: I for one have been a big fan of seeing
bands live reproduce what's on the record.
A: Trying to keep the music real.
7.YOUR COMPOSITIONS HAVE A LOT OF VARIETY. THEY
HAVE DOOM PARTS AND BOTH U.S. AND EUROPEAN DEATH METAL INFLUENCES. SO,
WHICH ARE YOUR INFLUENCES AS A BAND?
A: We all listen to different music and some
bands we grew up on were Autopsy, Master, early Pyogenesis.
E: A lot of old school metal, thrash.
8.HAVE YOU SENT YOUR DEMO TO LABELS? DID YOU HAVE
ANY PROPOSALS FOR A CONTRACT? WHICH ELEMENTS EXACTLY DO YOU SEEK IN A LABEL
IN ORDER TO SIGN A DEAL WITH THEM?
A: We sent our demo everywhere and we've been
getting a lot of good reviews so that is making us very happy. We didn't
receive any offers yet, but we are looking for something fair and someone
who will promote us.
I: Believe in the band.
9.HOW DID THE METAL FANS AND THE ZINES REACT TO
YOUR NEW RELEASE? DID THEY LIKE IT MORE OR LESS IN COMPARISON TO YOUR FIRST
DEMO?
A: The first demo had bad production so a
lot of negative review is because of the recording but as far as the songs
go, all true matalheads love it and appreciate the rawness. A lot of people
miss the way metal was so we remind them of how great life was.
10.WHAT DO YOU THINK WHEN YOU READ A BAD REVIEW?
DOES IT HELP YOU CORRECT SOME THINGS AND BECOME BETTER OR DOES IT PISS
YOU OFF? WHY?
E: No difference, won't change my way of thinking
or playing, and those who gave us a bad review were mainly into current
trends.
A: A review is an opinion and you can't please
everyone. If the review is honest we think about it but if it makes no
sense, we just laugh. We could only write what we feel and believe or we'd
be "bitches".
11.YOU PLAY DEATH METAL AND AS WE KNOW DEATH INSPIRES
PEOPLE IN ALL TIMES AND EVERYWHERE. WHY DO YOU BELIEVE HUMANS FIND DEATH
SO APPEALING AND FRIGHTENING? WHEN YOU THINK THAT SOMEDAY YOU'LL DIE, LIKE
WE ALL WILL OF COURSE, HOW DO YOU FEEL, WHAT DO YOU THINK?
A: Death is so appealing because it's real.
It will happen but it's not known when or how so the element of suprise
is so exiting.
I: Death is the only guarantee in life, not
love, happiness, health, or wealth. I am a realist and firmly believe that
death is a reward for suffering in life, as morbid as it sounds, it's real.
12.IF YOUR MSUIC WERE AN EMOTION, WHAT WOULD TI
BE? IF IT WERE A PAINTING, WHAT WOULD IT SHOW?
A: Through music I try to express the pain
I feel inside and things that hurt me.
I: Emotion.... disgust with the world.
E: Anger, everything going on in society,
and the political correctness of it all. Painting.... everyone waiting
in a big, long line for bread and water.
A: Sadness, fighting with fantasy and reality.
13.WHICH IS, ACCORDING TO YOU, THE BEST AND WHICH
THE WORST PART IN YOUR MUSIC? WHICH IS THE MOST CHARACTERISTIC ELEMENT
YOU HAVE? WHICH WORDS DO YOU THINK COULD BEST DESCRIBE YOU?
E: Best part of our music would be the versatility
and groove oriented riffs.
I: Characteristic element... it's genuine.
A: What I think best describes me is in "Life
or Death" the words "Just listen, don't say a word, you got the answers,
but I still hurt."
E: Unique.
I: Ambitious, passionate, honest, and horny.
14.WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF WE LIVED IN A WORLD WITHOUT
MUSIC? HOW WOULD YOU CHANNEL ALL YOUR CREATIVE ENERGY?
A: Without music I would not exist anymore.
E: Murder.
I: Channel energy into sex 24/7.
15.DO YOU HAVE ANY PLANS FOR LIVE SHOWS? WHICH
ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THE FUTURE?
E:We've been playing live shows already and
we're going to be music whores for a while.
A: Future plans would hopefully be a world
tour.
E: Full length album.
16.THANK YOU! HAVE I FORGOTTEN TO ASK YOU ANYTHING
AND YOU'D LIKE TO MENTION?
A: Just want to say that we all need to thank
all the people who write articles, reviews and support metal and appreciate
the bands that play it. Metal is the only true thing we have. There's no
money in it, no sex, just love of music. Die for metal... Live for death.
I: Definitely a thank you to all the
supporters of metal music around the world and to all the sex craved women,
come to our show and Ivan will be happy to please them.
THANKS NICK!!!!!!
