Interview - Sucking Leech

1.Grind greetings from Peru Hanson! all loud there? 
Oh yeath of corpse! All loud over here! 

2.Please give us a killer bio about this fast and intense band called Sucking Leech! 
Yes bro,…. We started in 1998 with a no name band only to rehearse with some friends ………. We had just 4 songs and played it over and over……….. but it was fun to the bone and there were a lot of friends at every rehearsal on our rehearsal room couch - ……….. old school style! But we had no vocalist…….. Just instrumental!  So we did it a few month and wanted to split because without a freakin voice it makes no fun at all for long time……… So we went on a heavy and grind karaoke party at STRICH 8 Club….. And there was a singer - …………. Without words! He was perfect for our style – we told him to get to our rehearsal room the next week but we didn´t expect him to come! One week later, just doin the second song in our rehearsal – the door opened and he came in, catched the mic and grunted with us without any lyrics! But it fitted and sounded like he had to be in the band from the start! Sucking Leech was born!

3.How many stuff edited Sucking Leech? 
Until now, we wrote 62 songs on 5 albums…………. And a single called “Lemmy five, lemmy one!” as a tribute for Motörhead when Lemmy died! Actually we have our album “SICKs” in progress – completely written and practicing that shit for studio time in November 2017! So our sixth album ”SICKs” will be out early 2018 for our 20 years anniversary with a big fat show with all the old buddies like U.G.F, Sarepta, Tampones, and a few more – the headline will be announced soon! – Headline for our “Life sucks like a leech” was nothing more than Napalm Death! So ……………. - be prepared for our new album “SICKs” – 16 insane tracks mixed of Grindcore, Death Metal and old school Punk! Already working on that stuff!

4.Rotten influences? 
Rotten,……… haha – Rotten like Rotten Sound???  - As fast as we can play, we will never reach the standard of Rotten Sound! They are grindgods! :-D We are more into Grindcore as a mix with Hardcore and Punk/Metal-influence………… So it is fast shit with a lot of groovy parts! Just listen to stuff like “Between two worlds” or “ Breaking Bad” from our “Leech on your brainstem” album…….. or the ultimate groove song “Don´t forget your roots!” from our last album “Common Sense!” - ………. Then you will know, that we have ROTTEN parts in it, but Sucking Leech style will ever be Sucking Leech style! The only real rotten influence Sucking Leech ever will have is from our sound-buddies  in Haemorrhage! For us the one and only Gore-Grind-Band on that planet which is hammering the grooves down everywhere and everytime! They know how to grind that stuff!

5.Basically the lyrics talk about? 
Our lyrics are about that shit every day happens…………. Most of the unfairly shit in every direction……….. Religion, Work, normal life or other stuff! – Every day a lot of injustice is happening – every FUCKING day! We have a good life over here, but at the other end of the planet people starving every day! We have money to buy our food or nearly everything we want to – at the other end people need to hope, that they will have one bowl of rice for their whole family a day! ……………. Nothing to laugh about……. But on every album we normally turn the page for one or two funny songs like “Roadkilled – Hedgehogs last turn” on the “Common Sense” album…….. Life is fucking hard – harder than every porn stars cock – but there´s a need for some funny things in life too………… and we work it out for both sides! 

6.Some member from Sucking Leech have another proyect paralalell? 
Oh yes…………. Steff (vox), Reichi (drums) and Reini (bass) are only into Sucking Leech. But myself and Christina are into more projects…………. From my side there´s “Genocide Generator” with the drummer from my old bands “Ultrawurscht” and “Gods of Emptiness”. It´s a grindustrial art of sound – nothing do describe……… you have to listen to that insanity to get it! – Gods of Emptiness closed in 2009 due to a heart desease of our vocalist………… And the LOST-project with a good friend of mine,……….. a mix between Charon and Sentenced on our style and a new band called “TURDBOMB” with a style like Monster Magnet paired with Hellacopters! And Christina is working on her own projects…….. like FORO – a neoclassical Metalproject or FINSTERORT - ……… a real damn it Black-Metal-project to the bone! So…………… we are fucking it up in every direction!

7.How is the grindcore scene from your city/country? 
Now you are stichin in a big wound…………………… - The scene was fucking good the last years……….. but at the moment it is not! – Up from 2009 to 2014 we did shows for Napalm Death, Haemorrhage, Cattle Decapitation  and others… and the club was fully crowded! Two years later,……. you can book what ever you want, it is like 50-80 people (formerly 250-350 in that small club!) But if a Gore-Grind band is playing,………. It is completely sold out! We cannot understand that change……………… From our thinking most of the new gore-grind-bands are sounding the same! Weeeeeeeeeeeh Weeeeeeeeeeeh and  Brrrrrrrr Brrrrrrrrr – no text at all and always the same beat! But it is like that………….. Lets have a look, how it will be in 5 years, …….. maybe the real Grindcore will get back in the old style – we hope so! 

Recommend some bands. 
From our side they have to be recommended:
Haemorrhage (cause they´re the inventors and one of the best gore grind bands ever!!!!)
Mastic Scum (one of the first Austrian grind bands – still grinding it down to the bone!)
Godhatecode (Austrian old school death band which grooves and fucks your brain out - !!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Belphegor (cause they are the most spitefully band on earth!)
Distaste (Austrians grindcore heroes!!! – Just listen – nothing more to add!)
Six Score (Austrian newcomers – just listen!)
Dead (old school sleaze grind since 1990!) 

8.You know the extreme scene from Southamerica? maybe Peru? 
The only one we know is KROW from Brazil – really extreme death metal! And the second is Anal vomit! And we had a small tour in 2003 with Purulent from Bogota………. Sad, that one of the band members died on an accident on that tour! Never forget that………….

9.Annihilator plans for the future in Sucking Leech? 
Yeath! Our new album “SICKs”, which we will bring out early 2018 for our 20 years anniversary! Be prepared – will kill your ears! – and tomorrow we will head on for a video shoot of our killer Grindsong “Social Brain Circus!” – all we did or do is only DIY – no fucking commerce!

10.Last words Hanson and thanks for your time!
Thx a lot for spreading our sound in Peru! – Thx a lot for supporting our band Sucking Leech in your area! No words for support like that! Just keeps your horns up and the grindcore alive! Hope to grind your hometown in the near future! Cheers S*L*
