WINGED
SERPENT MASTER - Enemy of God
1.TELL US IN A FEW WORDS THE MOST
IMPORTANT MOMENTS OF THE BAND'S HISTORY. WHICH IS TODAY'S LINE UP?
-
the most important moment is when i
formed the band. it 's a one-man black metal band.
2.WHY HAVE YOU NAMED THE BAND THIS
WAY? HOW IMPROTANT DO YOU THINK IS THE CORRECT SELECTION OF A BAND NAME?
-
i named the band WINGED SERPENT MASTER
because i liked how it sounded. my brother and I came up with the idea.
it's very important to have a correct or good metal band name because some
people like to check out bands because of their unique name even without
hearing their songs. It's also important for a metal band to have a good
cd cover.
3.GIVE US YOUR DEFINITION FOR YOUR
MUSIC. WHICH ARE THE BAND'S INFLUENCES? GIVE US A LIST WITH SOME OF YOUR
MOST BELOVED ALBUMS.
-
Extreme metal. Dark, black, death and
doom metal are the influences. I have too many beloved albums to list.
Some bands i like are mercyful fate, death, slayer, venom, deicide, bethlehem,
etc...
4.YOU HAVE MANY PROJECTS. HOW DO YOU
FIND TIME FOR ALL THOSE? WHICH IS YOUR FIRST PRIORITY?
-
yes. having many projects is good because
i can make any music i want without risking my other project's "reputation".
i have a dark ambient/noise project called Metanemfrost, a death grind
project called Inner Decay, and a black metal project called WINGED SERPENT
MASTER, which is my first priority.
5.GIVE US SOME GENERAL INFO FOR ALL
YOUR RELEASES TILL NOW. ARE YOU STILL SATISFIED WITH THEM OR IS THERE ANYTHING
YOU'D LIKE TO CHANGE?
-
I have released 1 WINGED SERPENT MASTER
album called "Enemy of God", a few Inner Decay cd's and demo tapes, and
3 Metanemfrost CD's. the new metanemfrost will be on the 3-way split cd
out on the rectrix records in october 2002 (along with the hollowing and
aere aeturnus). I'm finishing up the sophomore album of WINGED SERPENT
MASTER as well as other unnamed projects.
6.WHY DO YOU THINK METAL KEEPNS INVOLVING
SO MUCH RELIGION, MYSTICISM AND THE OCCULT?
-
Some band members are followers, some
just likes to sing about it cause it's a "metal" thing to do. Singing about
ass and tities is not metal.
7.WHICH IS THE WORST AND WHICH IS THE
BEST REVIEW YOU'VE EVER RECEIVED?
-
although i don't pay attention to any
reviews, so far the reviews were "fair" i guess. i don't really give a
fuck. everyone has their own opinions. just because i'm not a big name
yet (heheh) people in the "media" won't really give my music a proper listen.
their first priority are the "bigger" bands. i should know, i did a fanzine
back in '97 called Chaos Underground.
8.WHICH IS THE BEST PART IN YOUR MUSIC
AND IN THE BAND IN GENERAL AND WHICH THING DO YOU THINK YOU SHOULD CORRECT?
WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU NEED IMPROVEMENT?
-
Everyday I'm progressing. I have no
regrets.
9.IF YOU WEREN'T ABLE TO COMPOSE MUSIC,
WHAT ELSE WOULD YOU LIKE TO DO?
-
write books, scripts, or do animations
and computer games.
10.WHAT ARE YOUR LYRICS TALKING ABOUT?
WHAT ISNPIRES YOU AND WHAT CAN TAKE AWAY THE INSPIRATION FROM YOU?
-
About everything you could think of
a metal lyrics have. Being alone inspires me, not being alone can take
the inspiration away.
11.WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE U.S.A. UNDERGROUND
SCENE? THESE PAST FEW YEARS WE STARTED WITNESSING A REBIRTH OF METAL THERE.
DO YOU AGREE OR THINGS ARE NOT AS THEY SEEM TO BE?
-
the scene here is good. in where i
live now, the clubs, all they have playing are mostly metal bands almost
every night. it's great to see metal becoming accessible again, and this
time without even radio play or tv.
12.MANY EXTREME METAL BANDS EXPRESS
RACISTIC IDEOLOGIES. WHICH ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THAT?
-
it's their beliefs. i don't really
care. i support people who like to do their own thing without any restrictions.
13.IF SOMEDAY YOU HAD THE CHANCE TO
MEET THE CREATURE THAT CREATED THE UNIVERSE, WHICH WOULD YOUR BIGGEST QUESTION
BE?
14.IF TIME TRAVEL WAS POSSIBLE, WHICH
HISTORICAL PERIOD WOULD YOU LIKE TO VISIT AND WHY? WHAT WOULD YOU MISS
THE MOST FROM OUR TIME?

i'd like to visit the time period when
it was dark and cold. i don't like our time period, so i really won't miss
anything.
