ABHORRENCE (Brazil)

 

The debut 'Evoking The Abomination' have re-released by Totentroll Records, actually what's the main reason of this re-released? Is it the first release of the debut in vinyl version?

 

Well unfortunatelly this release was not done yet. There time Iīve talked about with some guy from Totentroll, but I donīt know well the reactins for that release was not sealed.... Anyway Evoking will be pressed in vynil version soon, surelly not thru Totentroll, we are in contact with another the label, we just shall solve all stuff for that.

 

How was the progression of the original release of that debut by Evil Vengeance? How was the sales & feedback going?

 

All things goes fine, the sales are good as well once we are an underground act. For other way, Evil Vengeance no long exist nowdays. Other bad thing was the cause for weīve not touring for this release, what was a great shit... Iīm sure the peoples should enjoy our noise upon the stages... Anyway no one purpose was done. But the reactions of all bangers was great in all world.

 

I've been noticed that the cover album designed by Desmond Sia & Joe Retagno. At the time I know about that ,I get a shocked to know that Abhorrence interested with Malaysian designer. How did you struck with both Desmond Sia & Joe Retagno? Do you satisfied with their art?

 

We are totally satisfied and proud for been worked with both artists. Their art are evil, this is the reaction for the band be connected with thy art. Weīve just contacted them showing our ideas for the album graphics, so they unleashed it. About Desmond he is our bro, heīs very talented artist from there really.

 

Abhorrence take part in the tribute album to Met Dad Bangers, record 'Mean Machine'. Can you story more about your participation in this project? Actually, who are another bands in this tribute?

 

I think you got this info in our website, itīs a bit out of update sorry... The correct name is Motorhead Bangers. As Iīve talking, the site is without update a long time, so about the Brazilian Tribute for Motorhead, Abhorrence not record anything due the things around this release had not been clarified for us.

 

Do you really a Motorhead maniac? What's your own comment about them?

 

Yeah, we like Motorhead. Their music kick ass, but we spot the attitude of them in stand itīs career thru so many years of beer drinkers and hellraiser. Most part of these mainstream bands hailed for the crowds not have 1/2 half of the Motorheadīs attitude.

 

As I've noticed that Abhorrence plan to record your new album in this second half year. So can you tell me about this forthcoming album? How was the preparation of this album?

 

We must record a new album just next year. We have new songs ready to strike so I can tell you it will be more extreme in the way of Evoking Abattoir songs were.

 

Is there anything about this album that'll make it so special? Will it feature all new songs? When it schedule to hit world & is it still release under Evil Vengeance?

 

It shall have 8-9 tracks were the band will sound more into WarMetal due the line-up change. In special our return after 3 years since Evoking. The album must be released by Listenable from France as the prevoius album, but now they will work the promotion worldwide since Evil Vengeance is out of activities nowdays.

 

Don't you have plan to rerecord or re-release your old stuffs, Ascension Triumph In Blasphemy, or even release a special album contain that old stuffs?

 

An EP could be great if feat some special new and rare old recordings. We must not release any rerecord later.

 

Back to the old glorious days of Brazilian Thrash Metal, Brazil have already known by its outstanding thrash metal act like Sepultura (and still kicking!!! Rules!!), Sextrash,Sarcofago, Mutilation etc. What do you think about them, do you still listen to them these days?

 

All these bands had itīs valour in Brazilian metal scene but just the old Sarcófago interest us.

 

Since same of the band have already disbanded, so you got any clue where are the old embers of that bands?

 

Sorry. I have no idea.

 

Since about half decade ago, Brazil became synonymous with brutal death metal especially  when Krisiun became outstanding. So, how about Brazil scene nowadays, is there become a trend to play brutal death metal? How about Abhorrence yourself?

 

The peoples have other idea about the scene here. Brazil is the worst place to play true Metal anyway. Death Metal itīs not trend here, few are those palying Death Metal over the top as Krisiun do. Nowdays the scene live as always survived among the shit, bad conditions, few shows, few oportunities. You have to hunt everything, we have support from few ones. Even with all shit there are great bands like Krisiun, Ophiolatry, Funeratus, Ancestral Malediction fighting a decade over the chaos. About Abhorrence, we are here marching as possible trying to do our parcel to the scene as well.

 

How about Abhorrence future plans? Where do you see yourself 10 years from now? What's your goal in play brutal death metal?

 

Our plans for now is record the 2nd album. After then be ready to face the stages at last. Yeah we are not so young, so you know our goal to be here playing Death Metal is for the glory to be recognized as a band who stand to carry the flag of Death Metal. We are not here for cash, or any other meaning beside the respect and honor from the scene.

 

Besides of get contact with Desmond Sia & have been featured in a compilation here, Metal Gempur (Metal Assault) 666,what else's do you know about the scene in Malaysia? Any great bands do you know from here?

 

We receive many e-mails from there, I know there are many underground acts playing like an insane every day too. Beside Desmond artistry, we like Impiety act. So I think thereīs a real cult death Metal scene. Tell me if I am wrong or Keep raging the warfare then.

 

Thanks bro, we're now about to end this interview. So, to close this interview, what's your shout out to Abhorrence maniacs here? Thanks!!!

 

Thank you and all from there who has supported us beliving in ABHORRENCE. THANX!!!
