NOSFERIEL (Malaysia)

HAIL!!!! Greetings to NOSFERIEL!!! Any greetings to the readers? What’s the latest from NOSFERIEL? What did you guys doing nowadays?
 

Hail to you Amin and the rest metal worshippers outhere!! We probably continue to crush the hellstages again maybe in Nilai, N.Sembilan and some rumors in Kuching, Sarawak. Just prepare to crush your fucking skull again with us!!!

Congratulation for the great performance in Songkhla Hellfest!! How did you felt that performed together with 9 other great bands from all over Malaysia, Singapore & Thailand? Can you story about the gig & your performance there?
 

Thanx for the compliments... We still not satisfied with a several thing bout that show!! I think the band who should pay to play that day is 11 not 9 like you mention before… If I'm not wrong!! Story? I take so many explanations to tell you brother. But I think Songkhla HellFest gave us so fucking lot of experience even hard to take but surely lot of thing that should we alert for our brightness future!!!

How about the other bands especially Malaysian Pyron, Bilharzia & another Singaporean & Siamese bands especially the most wanted band that day, Surrender Of Divinity? Personally, which band do you think had the best performance?
 

I think its hard to compare which band is good neither not... Most of the band performs that day is very good band I think... but the problem for the show is the audience!! Me myself had very surprised with amount of the audience, around 300 I think!! So small amount when we compare to the name FESTIVAL! The best performance would be Surrender Of Divinity or the new warcommander, Nechbeyth I think.

This is the first ever that NOSFERIEL played outside from Malaysia, so can you describe the situation there, how's the crowd reaction? What do you think that separate the gig in Thailand & Malaysia?
 

Yes this is first time ever we had to play outside Malaysia region...I think Songkhla have a small amount of Metal Fuckers... So that's why we can see a very small audience attended the fest even the hellstages is very big indeed!! I think our scene is cannot be compare enough because Thailand scene is now had growing bigger and bigger.... They have a very good band like Deathguy, of course HellBrothers Surrender Of Divinity, Heretic Angel and also Lacerate.

The demo berserk prism spell got great received by the metalheads, until now what's the latest progression of it, how’s the sales & feedback?
 

Yes we are very surprise with the situation... The selling is quite good and the response was overwhelming. Most of our buyers/traders like our song; we have very good reviews from editor/listener!!!... We sold/trade about 400 copy!! It's enough recommendation for the debut demo I think...

How far did you satisfied with it, what’s your personally comment about it?
 

We don't satisfy enough with this demo actually... we need a lot of progress/changes if we want to spread our aim!!! But now we are ready to rematch. Just wait for the new reincarnation of the brave new NOSFERIEL to explode the realm of the darkness!

I think 5 years is quite a long time for you to complete the debut demo, why did you guys took so long time for this effort...& also before the demo release, the name NOSFERIEL looks unfamiliar, why the band hiding before this?
 

We got so much trouble in the early ages like lack of commitment, the distance, and so on like others band faced also. We not ready maybe, but at the early ages we don't thought to be a serious band like nowadays. So we are not mention to record a demo or play gigs either. But the situation had been changes when the rest of friend said we would eligible to bring the glorification for Terengganu Metal Hordes. So, we said why not we record a demo and then the reflection smooth toward the hardest work we are!!!

Now, let’s talk about NOSFERIEL debut album. I’ve been noticed that it's supposed to record last April, so what's the latest progression of the debut's making process?
 

Yes, you right! But we got so many problems with financially... the song arrangement had totally 98% already finished!! I don't know how to solve this dilemma, maybe the recording session will postpone to this September... but we still alive and will bang your fucking head brother!!! Don't hesitate with us!!!

This upcoming debut will entitle Infernos Oath For Blasphemy, it's very 'hard' & seems so atrocious!!! What’s the story about the title?
 

The title comes from my own creation; just understand the deep meaning from that title!!! The title is just a symbol for the damnation, the cursed and the ferocity!!

Can you tell me depthly about all the 8 songs in this album, is there any improvement that you'll bring through it either in musical terms or else?
 

We got so lot of improvement since we want this album would be the best act ever in our release material to date!! Roughly, these albums have a variety... we are not focused only in one state. We want something that refresh minded and not monotonous because it's be our aim to bring a good material for your ears digest!! The concept for the album would be Black Death Metal!!

If I compare of this debut album & the demo, how far should be the differences between them? What will make this album special than the other?
 

Yes, the album absolutely much more Ferocious, Matured, Tightness, Complex & Aggressive. We currently in a very good shape for ejaculation!! I think if the sound were very good indeed, it would be another hellbattle beast to raise an Asian Metal Glorification!!

Would you tell me more about the album, anything about it. What’s the message & target through this album?
 

This album contain 8 track of Black Death Metal creation of art that will crush your fucking ears to the eternal bleeding... This album will be a payback time for us to show how serious we are for this battlescene arises!!

When it schedule to release & under which label? What’s your plan after the release?
 

Actually we don't record an album yet... but for sure, we plan to release an album next year... we still an independent band... The plan? Of course a tour to make a promotion for the album... what else?

The band formerly hailed in late 1997 by the name Sandraguna, why did the band decided to change to NOSFERIEL & what separate both Sandraguna & NOSFERIEL?
 

There's nothing secret or any typical reason behind that changes. We just want new monikers that will give us much more matured & Unique!!

This is such a typical question, what did the band hide behind the name NOSFERIEL? How did you get the name & what it's really mean?
 

We hide for nothing... NOSFERIEL has no meaning, if it has.... it just our Mysterious Imagination. Let it be!!!

According to your major influences, Mayhem, Marduk, Dark Throne, Dissection, Krisiun & Sodom, NOSFERIEL supposed not to only play black metal music because both Krisiun & Sodom come from the differences genre, brutal death & thrash metal, right?... & why did you guys choose the as the major influences?
 

Yes we are Black Death Metal Band!! We just pick the band to show the picture how NOSFERIEL Musical direction. Our music is a combination among the major influence, we have black, death and also thrash metal mixture altogether.... The variety of genre will come up with definitely strong different style yet brutal sounding echo... Judge with your fucking thyself!!

As long as you're listening to metal music, what’s your most favourite band ever in local scene & international? Can you give me your current playlist?
 

Local : Brain Dead, International : Morbid Angel and our playlist : Absu - Tara, Immortal - Son Of Northern Darkness, Krisiun - Black Force Domain, Morbid Angel - Altar Of Madness, Dying Fetus - Grotesque Impalement, Slayer - Show No Mercy, Mayhem - De Misteris Dom Sathanas, Marduk - Heaven Shall Burn, Emperor - Emperial Live Ceremony VCD, Cannibal Corpse - Live Cannibalism VCD.

Since the missing of Modar, the scene in Terengganu seems was loosing, disappeared before NOSFERIEL wake up, may be as the early sign of Terengganu reincarnation. Can you describe to me the situation in Terengganu metal scene now, any other great bands there?
 

I think our scene still small and so fucking hard to live here as an Extreme Metal band because we had been blame by those creepy bastards!!! But here we still have a very good talented band that will blow your ear!!!

Then before we end, can I know what's NOSFERIEL vision & what's your last words?
 

We cannot give a damn promise here but surely NOSFERIEL is standing to play a true Black Death Metal creation with our own blackish style!!! Thanx Amin for gave us space here!!!
