1. For those that have never heard of you before, can you tell us a little bit about the band?
DG: A demonic mixture of hatred, pain and despair.
2.I n October you have a new album coming out, musically how does it differ from your previous ep?
SR: More aggressive and a longer listening experience, bludgeoning the senses.
ZS: The songs are a little more fleshed out and we focused harder on the raw power of the sound as opposed to writing "technical" music.
3. A couple of the band members are also in 'Chasmdweller', what is it that you bring into the music of 'Malgöth', that you are not able to do with your other group?
DG: The pace is a lot faster and it brings out a lot more of the demonic high vocals.
ZS: Chasmdweller is more of a meat and potatoes death metal band, Malgöth is more chaotic and takes influence from black metal, noise and other raw war metal bands.
4. What are some of the lyrical topics and subjects the band has explored so far with the music?
SR: Demons, Genocide, Blasphemy, and Gore
ZS: War, Torture and Death
5. What is the meaning and inspiration behind the name 'Malgöth'?
ZS: The name came to me naturally. I'm not sure there is any meaning other than it being our band's name.
7. Can you tell us a little bit more about the artwork that is presented on the new album cover?
SR: Medieval torture art to go along w/ the themes of the songs, letting people know they're in for a brutal experience.
8. Musically what do you feel separates you from other bands playing war metal?
ZS: I think our sound is distinct, but of course we pay our respects to all other war metal bands that have come before us. It's a small sliver of a subgenre but there are a lot of powerful bands in there.
9. Would the band members be open to doing any live shows in the future?
SR: Yeah, maybe in the future.
ZS: I'm not a fan of playing live, but if the demand to see us was there I would definitely consider it.
10. On a worldwide level how has the reaction been to your music by fans of war metal?
ZS: I've read a couple reviews and they've been positive.
DG: From what I've heard the reaction is mainly positive. If you are a fan of our specific flavour of extreme music, you are probably going to like it.
11. Where do you see the band heading into musically during the future?
DG: The goal is to become even more brain shattering with each release.
ZS: I think we'll try and push the band to its limits. Who knows.
12. What are some of the bands or musical styles that have had an influence on your music and also what are you listening to nowadays?
DG: My vocals on the project are heavily influenced by early Repulsion, Entombed, Fuck the Facts, Anal Cunt, Obituary, etc..
ZS: Our influences for this project are all over the place, but probably too hard to pin down. Currently listening to Genocide Shrines on vinyl.
13. Before we wrap up this interview, do you have any final words or thoughts?
DG: Big thanks to everyone who supports.
ZS: Thanks for the interview and be sure to get the new LP when it comes out on October 1st.
SR: Yeah, thanks for the support and don't sprain your spine headbanging to our shit
