Intolerant Interview

 

1.For those that have never heard of you before, can you tell us a little bit about the musical project?

Intolerant has been conceived during the lockdown of March/April to show our disgust for mankind.


2.Recently you have released your first full length can you tell us a little bit more about the musical styles that you went for on the recording?

Our goal was to compose an extreme album devoted to chaos.

The guitar riffs are inspired by the cult Black Metal bands of the 90s, while the guitar solos have many Death/Thrash Metal influences.

The drums are a declaration of war from the beginning to the end of the album: extreme distortions and high speed bpm without mercy.

We recorded everything in our home studios and after the quarantine we joined Subsound Studio where we recorded the vocals, mixed and mastered the album.


3.The band members also have experience with non metal genres like industrial, darkwave, post punk, techno, rave and hip hop, do you feel working with a lot of different musical genres has made you better musicians over the years?

Absolutely yes, it’s a matter of attitude.

You can find the same nihilistic approach in many different styles of music.


4.Some of your lyrics cover satanic topics, can you tell us a little bit more about your interest in Satanism?

Satanism means rebellion. It is an attitude against the modern world, a pure concept in a polluted system of things.

Satanism stands for freedom of choice.


5.What are some of the other lyrical topics and subjects the band explores so far with the music?

The topics are war, chaos, nihilism, misanthropy, death. 


6.What is the meaning and inspiration behind the name 'Intolerant'?

Hate everything, hate them all. 


7.Can you tell us a little bit more about the artwork that is presented on the album cover?

Artwork has been done by Warhead: he was the only who could translate in images what Intolerant was about. He is one of our favorite artists and his work fits perfectly with our style.


8.Currently there are only 2 members in the band, are you open to expanding your line up or do you prefer to remain a duo?

We are open to collaborations and guest appearances but we’ll prefer to remain a duo.


9.On a worldwide level how has the reaction been to your music by fans of war metal?

It's still too early to say it and maybe the more traditional fans of classic metal will not appreciate our musical proposal.

We turn to a limited audience in terms of musical tastes concerned to those who listen to War Metal and extreme music in all its declinations.


10.What is going on with some of the other bands or musical projects these days that some of the band members are a part of?

We are both involved in many different musical projects, we still keep on doing our shit. We are constantly writing new songs and arranging new productions as it’s a need for us. Soul Devourer is preparing his solo debut under the name of  Blood Artillery while Antihuman War Machine is writing down the synth parts and will finalize the work soon. We are also start writing new songs for the next Intolerant releases.


11.Where do you see the band heading into musically during the future?

Same place, same style. We don’t think we are gonna change anything.


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?

Blasphemy, Conqueror, Diocletian, Revenge, Black Witchery: all the masters of War Metal. Obituary, Cryptopsy, Carcass, Morbid Angel concerning our Death Metal heroes. Darkthrone, Craft, Marduk, Mayhem are among our favorites.  We also found lots of similarity with raw punk bands such as Raw Noise, Doom, Discharge, Wretched that have strongly influenced us.


13.Before we wrap up this interview, do you have any final words or thoughts? 

No.
