1.Loud greetings of Perú,Eva! How going the things at Hetze?
Hey Daniel! We are great! Last year was incredible! We had awesome gigs in Belgium, The Netherlands, Barcelona and Germany! We met a lot of cool people and our split with Dismalfucker is on its way!!

2.Tell us how is form this destructive band of raw and fast hardcore called Hetze? Hows been the begings?
Dorien (bass) and Caroline (guitar) wanted to start a band together. They asked me to join on vocals, and Viktor (drummer) wanted to do something else than metal.  We started rehearsing june 2017 and had our first gig march 2018.

3.Chaotic discography of Hetze?
The Bedbugs 12” came out in september 2018. The second press just came out on pink vinyl!  Our next release is a split with Dismalfucker from Germany, it will be released this fall on Loner Cult Records and Spastic Fantastic Records.

4.Twisted influences at Hetze?
Most songs are written on banana cake! We are influenced by a lot of things but banana chocolate cake beats them all! Our biggest fan is a teckel dog, so we made her our logo. We love cats too! I think you can say we love animals a lot, that’s why we write so many songs about them! 

5.Some members of Hetze have another proyect paralell?
Our drummer Viktor plays drums in Bones, a Belgian death metal band. Check it out, they are really good.
Dorien plays bass in d-beat band called Arrogänt, they just started but gonna kick ass for sure.

6.Eva explain some more about actual fast hardcore scene from your city and recommend some bands.
The reigning band in fast hardcore in Belgium is Reproach after 20 years. There is no band in Belgium who are still killing it after so many years. But we have some newer bands too which you really need to check out. There is Haemers, Permanent Debt, Travölta, Raw Peace, Gagged, Slavemaker, B. Polar and the Spacefuckers, Toxic Shock, Diss Guy, … And I am naming just a few. For such a small country we have quite some active bands. And new ones are on their way! So keep an eye on Belgium!
O damn, i forgot to mention Agathocles haha.

7.Hetze knows fast hardcore scene of Southamerica?
We played together with Muro in Ghent. I saw them a couple of times on their European tour last year. Their concerts gave me goosebumps! I think Colombia has a lot of cool bands, Abuso and Amanazas really killed it at K town hardcore fest. Don’t really know bands from Peru, so let me know which bands I need to check out!

8.Stuff avaliable of Hetze at the moment? where punxs can find the stuff?
We have shirts, LPs, totebags! Send us a message! Or come to our shows!
LPs are available at Loner Cult Records, Emergence Records, Up the Punx records, Fucking Kill records, Zas Autoproduzioni Records.

9.Morbid future plans?
We are really excited to have some shows in september with Despise You and Trappist in Amsterdam and Antwerp. We also have some cool shows coming up in Germany with Ringworm and we are playing the Grind Here, Right Now fest. We are writing new songs and we have some plans for touring in 2020!
