Saqraruna Interview

 

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

Davenium:  Saqraruna is born in April 2021 in my hands. Basically, and to be honest, it was an impulse that I had kept for many years generated with the thousands of attempts to form a band, to produce it and make it known. I never managed to get the people, the desire and the perseverance to keep it alive. I told myself, I'll try it alone and without help… I recorded the first album “Obscure and Malignant Rituals” in 4 days. I felt that something was missing, it was not complete. It is there where the other members arrive and give all the productions another nuance and, by far, an improvement. Therefore, Saqraruna is Ghoulfist on vocals, Lord Grinder and myself on guitars, and Hastur on bass.

 

2. So far you have released a full length and an ep, musically how do they both differ from each other?

Hastur: To answer that question, let's situate ourselves in the concept of our first production “Obscure and Malignant Rituals” (2021).

Psychological terror is the main theme of our first album, infested with disastrous melodies, harmonies and well-crafted atmospheres in which the guitars play an extremely important role in achieving it.

Now, our Ep “An Altar to the Nameless Entity” (2022) recounts the events that gave rise to the Obscure. As all inception is raw, we wanted to put more emphasis on giving it a more 'primitive' sound and vibe. The composition of the themes is maintained.

Now, our second EP is coming (March-2022): “Ayar Betrayal”. Here we take a turn on the lyrics and music. We have incorporated pre-Hispanic rhythms and the lyrics are now focused on Inca mythology as the foundation of the largest empire in South America, while preserving the twisted atmospheres and aggression that characterizes us. “The Ayar Betrayal” will welcome you to our second production to come out: “Under the Light of Mountains”, a twisted chronicle of our Inca history.

 

3. Some of your lyrics cover the pre-Hispanic Pagan era of Peru, can you tell us a little bit more about your interest in this topic?

Ghoulfist: At the beginning - first two releases - we lyrically developed a particular mythology that allowed us to explore and delve into the darkness of the soundscape that was composed.

However, from the beginning (as the name of the band suggests), our interest in revaluing native themes was shared. We believe in the possibility of connecting the history of the cultural massacre to which our ancestors were subjected by the conquerors and the vindication of some myths and features of our historical identity, with the sound that we are proposing as a band and that both fronts are enriched in favor of the final result of our work.

 

4. Hat are some of the other lyrical topics and subjects the band has explored so far with the music?

Ghoulfist: At the beginning - first two releases - we lyrically developed a particular mythology that allowed us to explore and delve into the darkness of the soundscape of the compositions through stories about beings related to nature, time and death.

 

5. What is the meaning and inspiration behind the name 'Saqraruna'?

Hastur: Saqra is a word of Quechua origin that would be translated as evil/perverse. Runa is people. If we put this together, it would lead us to a sinister concept where we want to demonstrate that evil and darkness is part of our culture conceptualized in anthropomorphic and/or mythological creatures and that is part of our identity.

It is where the name of the band is formed, in which we carry evil and paganism in an archaic and atavistic way in our songs.

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

Davenium: The photo is about the Pisac-Cusco’s ruins from Peru. Pisac is located at the eastern end of the Sacred Valley of the Incas. In the century XVI, after the arrival of the Spanish people in Cusco, Pisac was invaded and its people fled. Its main monuments were damaged. The Inca cemetery was destroyed and looted. One of his best-known stories is that of a single statue that tells an Inca legend, in which the chief of the town: Huayllapuma had a daughter, called Inquill, whom he had to marry to the man who could build, in just one night, the bridge over the Vilacmayo river (a bridge of great importance for the shelter and defense of the place). Despite everything, Asto Rímac (a prince) decided to accept the challenge. With it, she would marry Inquill. The local authorities arranged everything so that Asto Rímac began the work, while the princess had to climb a hill without turning around; because otherwise she and her fiancé would turn to stone. Almost at dawn, the prince had completed the work, but Inquill, unable to bear the blazing sunlight any longer, turned and remained turned to stone to this day. For this, the name of the album: “Under the Light of Mountains”

 

7. Do the band members have any plans for live shows in the future?

Ghoulfist: Being a band with a pandemic birth certificate, there are certain conditions that have to be met, such as the time to coordinate and in our case, get a drummer, but above all the possibility of replicating the sound that we have achieved... if conditions are met, it could be considered. In a strict sense we are a studio band, but it is not ruled out.

   

8. The new album was released on 'Super Sargasso', how did you get in contact with this label?

Ghoulfist: Super Sargasso is a serious and close label, with which some of us already had contact for previous projects. Precisely because of that closeness there was trust and interest in working together.

 

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

Ghoulfist: So far we have read good reviews and thanks to the digital world and its indicators we could say that there are people interested in our work, which is relatively motivating: it is not the reason for what we do, but it is satisfying.

 

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?

 

Ghoulfist: Currently in my case there are several works in progress: Incantamentum's debut album and AntiPröphet's EP came out at the end of last year, Crown of Worms' second album is about to come out under Super Sargasso as well; two splits are coming up with unreleased material from Motherfog, and we're in the pre-production stage for Ghoulfist, Despoil, NDR and something new from AntiPröphet, between this and next year.

 

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

Hastur: To tell you the truth, that each job we do is 'differently the same', I can tell you that in substance it´s Saqraruna.

We will probably incorporate new instruments to give it a rich sound in the atmospheres depending on the concept of the album.

But who knows, you will hear something new from us and a dimensional door to new cosmic horrors will open for you.

The demons are in the detail and that is what we are heading for.

 

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?

Davenium: To tell the truth, although I listen to a lot of music, I don't think I have a direct influence on the style we do with Saqraruna. What I can mention are some bands that I often listen to that indirectly got me into this project: Ildfar, Ethereal Shroud, Drudkh, Olhava, Këkht Aräkh, Korpituli, among others.

 

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

Saqraruna:

Thank you for giving us a space for people to get to know us better and the people who follow us on digital networks and platforms.

Stay tuned we are making new material!!!

Thanks for the interest and support of the band's work, we hope to continue producing material worthy of it. Greetings.

  Cursed  Cemetery  are  a  band  from  Romania  that  plays  a  ritualistic  mixture  of  black  and  funeral  doom  metal  and  this  is  a  review  of  their  2022  album  "A  Forgotten  Epitaph"  which  will  be  released  in  March  by  Dusktone.

  Ambient  style  synths  and  soundscapes  start  off  the  album  while  whispers  can  also  be  heard  briefly.  Tortured  voices  can  also  be  heard  for  awhile  before  going  into  a  heavier  musical  direction  along  with  the  slower  sections  of  the  songs  bringing  in  elements  of  funeral  doom  metal  and  the  vocals  are  mostly  high  pitched  depressive  black  metal  screams.

  All  of  the  tracks  are  also  very  long  and  epic  in  length  while  the  faster  sections  of  the  songs  also  add  in  a  great  amount  of  tremolo  picking  and  blast  beats  which  also  gives  the  music  more  of  a  raw  feeling.  Death  metal  growls  are  also  utilized  quite  a  bit  throughout  the  recording  and  the  music  also  has  its  ritualistic  moments.

  Spoken  word  parts  can  also  be  heard  briefly  along  with  one  song  also  introducing  choir  style  vocals  and  Gregorian  chants  into  the  music  as  well  as  some  clear  singing  also  being  utilized  at  times  and  most  of  the  music  also  sticks  to  a  slower  direction  and  all  of the  musical  instruments  also  have  a  very  powerful  sound  to  them,  when  guitar  solos and  leads  are  utilized  they  are  also  done  in  a  very  melodic  style  and  clean  playing  can  also  be  heard  on  the  closing  track.  The  production  sounds  very  professional  while  the  lyrics  cover  psychical/mental  torture,  suicide  and  occultism  themes.

  In  my  opinion  Cursed  Cemetery  are  a  very  great  sounding  ritualistic  mixture  of  black  and  funeral  doom  metal  and  if  you  are  a f an  of  those  musical  genres,  you  should  check  out  this  band.  RECOMMENDED  TRACK  "Burned  Anchor".  8  out  of  10.

  Clean  playing  and  chants  start  off  the  album  before  going  into  a  heavier  musical  direction  while  spoken  word  parts  can  also  be  heard  on  a  couple  of  songs.  Vocals  are  mostly  grim  sounding  black  metal  screams  that  are  get  very  high  pitched  sounding  at  times  an  all  of  the  musical  instruments  on  the  recording  also  have  a  very  powerful  sound  to  them.

  Melodies  are  also  added  into  some  of  the  guitar  riffing  while  the  faster  sections  of  the  songs  also  add  in  a  great  amount  of  blast  beats  and  tremolo  picking  which  also  gives  the  album  more  of  a  raw  feeling.  A  lot  of  the  music  is  also  very  heavily  rooted  in  the  90's  second  wave  tradition  along  with  the  guitar  leads  also  being  done  in  a  very  dark  yet  melodic  style  when  they  are  utilized  as  well  as  a  couple  of  songs  also  adding  in  a  brief  use  of  Gregorian  chants.

Schauer interview

 

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

Kilian: Sure, we are a two-piece atmospheric Black Metal Band from Austria formed in the winter of 2020. We met at a party of a friend and after some beers we had the idea of starting a band together. Now 15 months later here we are with our first record and a label contract with Kvlt und Kaos Productions. We both enjoy the music of Drudkh, Summonning and Wolves in the throne room and more other bands that would take too much time to list them all.

2.Earlier this year you put out your first release, can you tell us a little bit more about the musical style that you went for on the recording?

Kilian: We wanted to create a dark and melancholic atmosphere with it. For the quality we went into a rawer direction then some other Bands that sound too clean and overproduced. We wanted to keep the spirit of traditional Black Metal with an obscure atmosphere which can't be obtained with an overproduced sound.

3.A lot of your lyrics cover metaphysical and nature themes, can you tell us a little bit more about your interest in these topics?

Kilian: We wanted to create a dark and melancholic atmosphere with it. For the quality we went into a rawer direction then some other Bands that sound too clean and overproduced. We wanted to keep the spirit of traditional Black Metal with an obscure atmosphere which can't be obtained with an overproduced sound.

4.What is the meaning and inspiration behind the name 'Schauer'?

Kilian: The band name comes from two German words. Schauer which means like a shiver down your spine and the word Regenschauer which means a heavy type of rainfall. From those words came our inspiration for the band name where we knew it has to be with some kind of a natural aspect to it.

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

Kilian: The band name comes from two German words. Schauer which means like a shiver down your spine and the word Regenschauer which means a heavy type of rainfall. From those words came our inspiration for the band name where we knew it has to be with some kind of a natural aspect to it.

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

Kilian: As the core of the band, we want to continue as a two-piece for writing but we are open for session members to play live someday. But it is easier for us as it is at the moment because we share the same interests and work really great together without any major problems.

7.The release came out on 'Kult und Khaos Productions, are you happy with the support the label has given you so far?

Kilian: Totally, we never expected to score a record label contract within our first year as a band. With Kvlt und Kaos we have everything we wanted and dreamt of, an Austrian label which shares our interests and has our back like a family member. Through Christoph and the label, we could release our music physically and also release awesome merchandise. We are really happy about it and hope we can stay a permanent member of the Artist roster.

8.On a worldwide level how has the reaction been to your music by fans of atmospheric black metal?

Kilian: The reaction was way better then we could have imagined. Our music reached 12 countries so far and that’s fucking awesome. It's really awesome to see that our record is well received in very different parts of the world through different communities. It’s a way better feedback then we could have ever dreamed off.

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

Kilian: We are already working on the next record and hope to play some shows in the near future. We will definitely stay true to the spirit of Schauer and keep our interests in nature strong in our upcoming music. Maybe with some kind of historic approach to and a bit off Austrian folklore.

Michael: I would also add, that we had gear changes and gathered a lot of experience since the first record, when it comes to mixing and mastering, but also composing. But don’t worry, we don’t want to make our music “cleaner” or more polished, rather take things to the next level.

10.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?

ilian: For myself it’s a mix off bands like Taake, Dissection, Harakiri for the sky but also Marduk and a lot off smaller Bands like Avertia, Perchta, Atramentus, Windir and Carpathian Forest. There are way too many to count. Nowadays it hasn’t changed for me. I listen to Black and Doom Metal most of the times maybe some Death Metal or Punk but still more of the obscure stuff that’s out there.

Michael: I really listen to music from all over the place. Besides metal and rock there’s also blues, jazz and classical music. Even some electronic music, which serves as the main inspiration for the synth parts in Schauer. When it comes to metal, the only subgenres I could never quite get into are Core and nu-metal. I’m a huge fan of Tech and Prog death, and also planning on producing stuff like that with my other band Rosc. My contribution to Schauer is probably mainly influenced by artists such as Burzum, Drudkh, Mgla, Bathory, Primordial, Lustre, etc. 

11.What are some of your non musical interests?

Kilian: I love everything that has to do with space exploration as I work as an Engineer in a Space propulsion company. I go hiking and climbing a lot and do some strengthening yoga in my free time. Lovecraft inspires me a lot too and I love animals, especially my dogs.

Michael: As an Austrian of course, I’m obliged to love skiing haha. But my biggest non-musical interest lies in reading, I think. I’m basically devouring every single work of world literature I can get my hands on. Some of my favourites are Wilde, Hesse, Dostoyevsky, Hemingway, Camus, and so on. Especially 19th century gothic fiction is a great source of inspiration for metal. I don’t read any modern books though; I prefer the old style of writing. 

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

Thanks a lot for the opportunity for the interview, stay true support the underground and check out our record and merch available through Kvlt und Kaos Productions

Blazemth Interview

 

1.Can you give us an update on what has been going on with the band since the recording of the new album?

Yes of course: in the recording the group was formed by Volkhaar (guitar/vocals), Shunh (guitar), Kerberos (bass) and Croma Lan Ro (drums). Two weeks after the recording, the bassist and the drummer decided to leave the band due to lack of motivation (the thing I will never understand). Then I found myself in the same situation again, struggling to find the musicians. Thanks to a friend of mine, he put me in contact with Frank, ex-bassist of Ktulu, and since Frank knew the great Riky Mena, former drummer of Avulsed and Wormed, we met a few times and played the new stuff. They both liked the project and decided to stay in the band.

2.You have a new album coming out in March, musically how does it differ from the stuff you have released in the past?

Well, in maturity a lot, although 4 songs that are part of the new album are songs that I already made in 1997 but were never released. That means that we were maybe musically mature enough but the band wasn't ready for the new album.There is much more melody on this album.

3.When I listened to the new album it seemed to be a lot different from the material you have released in the 90's, do you feel it is necessary to move with the times and get more diverse and talented with each recording?

Yes, obviously, but improving musically (at least in my opinion) does not mean losing that beautiful essence of the 90's, and we will always strive to stay in the atmosphere of that time.

4.The band was broken up for 20 years, what was the cause of the split and decision to reform?

Honestly, I don't remember why it was, although there were certain differences in the band, but that's left behind. The cause of the band's return was due to the 20th anniversary reissue proposed by Abstract Emotions, since we were the first Black Metal band to be released on CD in Spain.

5.A lot of the lyrics on the new album cover Luciferian and Occult topics, can you tell us a little bit more about your interest in the dark arts?

For me it is the search for the truth, where the perception does not reach, come the dark arts with dragons in the sky, witches and eternal chaos. Space and time are for me like a prison that do npt let you be creative.

6.A lot of your lyrics in the 90's were more battle and war orientated, can you tell us a little bit more about what these topics once meant to you and also do you still have interest in those themes.

Yes, of course, before almost all the lyrics were written by Lord Erlick, but now it is me who writes them. I like more the search for truth through the Chaos, Lucifer - the light bringer and the dark arts that make us strong.

7.The band was originally called 'Daemonum', what was the cause of the name change and also the meaning and inspiration behind the name 'Blazemth'?

I had a lot of problems right from the start with Decomposed, my first band, because the name was already taken. Then the same happened when we changed to Rotten Flesh even when we changed to Undivine and then when I formed Daemonium - the same, the name already existed. So I made up a name Blazemth: BLAZE as a bonfire and the MTH symbols are the ones that the Sumerians were putting on the graves. Sure, no one had that name and today if you put Blazemth in google search you find only us hehehehe

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

In the times that we live by the norms of a powerful church that hides the truth from us, Lucifer feels the need to come out. On the album cover is shown the breaking of Lucifer's chains where he comes back from the underworld to show us all the truth which was hidden for millennia. The art is inspired by the work of Gustave Doré and was made by  the Serbian illustrator Dejan Mandić.

9.What are some of the best shows that the band has played over the years and also how would you describe your stage performance?

The best was in Benidorm with Grimuack (greetings to Vincent Beherit) because there was a great empathy with the public, it was really impressive, the band really connected with the people, they didn't want us to finish the concert, they wanted us to play on and on and on .... Good memories :)

10.The band has a history going back to the 90's and was one of the first Spanish black metal bands, do you feel you have been a huge influence on the later black metal bands that later came out of your home country?

Well, I don't know really because I disconnected from the music in 1997 and I was practically out of everything until 2017. I have heard that some bands were inspired by Blazemth, yes, but I don't really feel like we were some kind of influencers.

11.On a worldwide level, how has the reaction been to your music by fans of black metal?

Well it is true that many people write to me from all over the planet saying they like Blazemth but in Brazil and Colombia I heard that we are an iconic band from the 90's.

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

Musically we will try to keep the same recognizable sound of Blaizemth and melodic Black Metal. I hope that one day they will talk about us in a good way musically and as a band that makes good concerts.

13.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?

My musical influences are: Immortal, Dissection, Burzum, Emperor, Celtic Frost etc. Nowadays I listen Kriegsmaschine.

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

Very nice interview :) Thank you so much for dedicating your time
