Interview - Crutches

1.Chaotic greetings from Peru,Andreas! how are you brother? hows going the things in Crutches?
A: Hey! All good here! I’ve just been trying to collect my thoughts on the year that has passed, and all that it has entailed, which is now coming to an end. Fall/winter has reached Sweden and that tends to keep me mostly inside or in the practice space. As for Crutches, we’re trying to work out some new logistics for practicing as both our drummer and bass player are moving away from Malmö. But we have no fears of it not working out.

2.Andreas give us a blasphemy trip by the raw life from Crutches.
A: Blasphemy trip? Well, we once played a venue in Indonesia, which was a badminton court and was wall to wall with a mosque. A really interesting set-up, as when the hour of prayer kicked in, all the bands had to wait. Same thing happened when we were to play. But half way through, one of the organizers got tired of waiting and just told us: ”Fuck it, just play!”. A crazy feeling with the minarets thundering outside and knowing people were praying just behind the wall, when I cranked the guitar and stomped my distortion pedal. I don’t think I’ve ever played a show like that.

3.Official discography from Crutches?
A: We released our Demo on cassette in 2012, which was followed by D-Beat Tsunami EP the same year, Lurad and previous releases on a compilation tape in 2013 for the first SE Asia tour, Lurad (LP) in 2014, FörlOrAD (LP, CASS) in 2015 and the latest release Såld (LP, CASS, CD) this year 2017. 

4.Destructive influences?
A: Life in general and the fucked up world we live in I guess. As for musical influences, I can only speak for myself but: State of Fear, Avskum, Framtid and Kriegshög.

5.Some member from Crutches have another proyect paralell?
A: Yes, Oskar is probably the one with the most parallel projects such as Ursut and Voidfiller. Other than that I’ve just recently started a new band called Genöme which will be released in the near future.

6.Explaim some more about the hardcore,punk,crust,d-beat about your city and recommend some bands.
A: I’d say that Malmö where we reside is pretty much the D-beat capital of Sweden as there is a constant flow of new bands as well as old still going strong. Notable new ones are Anhedoni, Crudiax, Zyfilis and Arsle as well as some of the older ones such as Lautstürmer, Korsfäst, Remiso and Glorious? As for venues, it’s mostly commercial ones, pizza places/pubs where there are shows. But one punk venue exists, called Enskiftet which has been around for a year now which is amazing.

7.You know the hc,punk,crust,d-beat scene from Southamerica? maybe Peru?
A: I don't know it as much as I’d like to. Only small bits from bands and friends. But I listened to @patia No a lot when I grew up. Other bands I know is Antimaster and quite a lot from Brazil, like Social Chaos, Armagedom, Olho Seco, Ratos de Porão, Sick Terror and some others. As for the scene, I’ve still yet to travel to South America and experience it!

8.How and where the punxs can find the stuff from Crutches?
A: Most of our stuff can be bought from Not Enough Records which is a distro/label done by Oskar and Tom. As well as at our shows, but a bit closer to you is probably Mundo en Kaos in Mexico! Everything can also be downloaded for free/donation on crutches666.bandcamp.com

9.Morbid future plans?
A: Our future plans are to take part in a compilation LP that Not Enough are doing with all new d-beat/mangel-bands from Malmö called “Dis is Malmö” with a new song. As well as start recording a smaller release together with our friends. This Friday we play in Gothenburg and have some loose plans about a weekend tour together with Slutet in February. There is also a longer tour in the States (East Coast) in May, and one short Euro tour together with Ursut in July planned so far.

10.Andreas thanks for your time in this interview,last words!
A: Thank you for the time and interest. I wish you all the luck with the zine. Keep the fire burning!

Entrevista - Exhumed Movies

1.Sangrientos y mórbidos saludos desde Perú,Javi! como va todo en Exhumed Movies Zine?
Hola amigos….Un placer el contestar a esta entrevista. Por aquí, en España seguimos luchando y dando caña con nuestro fanzine. Muchas gracias por esta oportunidad para que nos conozcan los amigos de vuestro país.

2.Cuéntanos como se dio vida al engendro llamado Exhumed Movies Zine? como fueron los inicios y cual es la propuesta que da Exhumed Movies Zine a sus lectores?
“Exhumed movies” nació allá en el 2012. Teníamos un foro con el mismo nombre, donde posteábamos sobre cine oscuro y a Sito, Jose y a mí se nos ocurrió hacer una encuesta al personal sobre la idea de sacar a la luz un fanzine. La respuesta fue unánime, un Sí rotundo; así pues nos pusimos manos a la obra y nació el fanzine, con una tirada de 150 ejemplares (edición limitada) y con 96 páginas a color. En una semana se agotó. Estaba claro que la gente estaba ansiosa por volver a tener en sus manos algo que leer, tocar y sentir.                                                              Desde un primer momento teníamos claro que había que innovar, tanto en los contenidos (cine muy oscuro), como en la maquetación (obra y gracias de Sito, todo un genio). Esos dos puntos son marca de la casa del fanzine.

3.Cuales crees que son las claras influencias en Exhumed Movies Zine? esta pregunta encierra a todo en sí desde
peliculas,libros,revistas,zines y musica.
Las influencias de Exhumed movies son muy dispares. Desde el mondo más genuino hasta el giallo mas bizarro, pasando por Chorizo western o pelis de Comandos filipinas. De todo y para todos. De la misma forma que las escrituras de Lovecraft, Poe o King son fundamentales para nosotros también lo puede ser el Black Metal de Venom o Possessed o el HardCore de Tdk, Misfist o Dead Kennedys. A nivel revistas o Fanzines tenemos claras influencias, la mitica Fangoria, 2000 maniacos o Zineshock por poner solo alguna influencia

4.Cuantos números hasta la fecha ha editado Exhumed Movies Zine?
Hasta la fecha llevamos editados 11 números, entre ellos la rededicion de los números 0 y 1 en un solo tomo y los dos especiales con los dibujantes de Killer toons.

5.Exhumed Movies Zine solo edita revistas o también algunas películas de culto?
Hace cosa de un año y medio editamos un Dvd con una selección de cortometrajes denominado “Cultometrajes” (del cual todavía hay copias) con cuatro ganadores y varios de extras (entre los cuales se encuentra –Veinte-, el documental que dirigimos nosotros). En este nuevo número, regalamos el mediometraje “La polizia secuestra…la victima agradece”, un homenaje al Poliziesco italiano dirigido por uno de nuestros amigos y colaborador Oscar Villalta Macian. En un futuro no muy lejano queremos producir un giallo y algún que otro trabajo.

6.Javi,cuentanos...en España hay algun movimiento dedicado totalmente al cine de terror,horror,gore? cuéntanos un poco mas sobre aquello.
Hay varios fanzines y plataformas que se dedican al género: 2000 maníacos, Back to the culture, Altar mutante, Monsterworld, Cine Bis…ahora mismo en el país hay buen movimiento de publicaciones con diferentes temáticas dentro del subgénero.

7.Exhumed Movies Zine he visto que realiza un festival donde presentan peliculas de culto,explicanos sobre esto.
Se celebra en Salamanca entre los meses de Febrero/Abril. Es una muestra de unos 3 días donde se proyectan cortos y largos. Contamos con puntos de exposiciones, mesas redondas. Merchandising y un bien bar para tomar cervezas. Llevamos 4 años y viene gente de toda España. Está en un gran momento de forma. 

8.Cual es tu opinión sobre el cine de horror,terror,gore de los 80s,90s con el cine actual del mismo genero.
Gran pregunta….No podemos comparar ambos tipos. En los 60/70/80 el cine de terror vivió su momento de oro con grandes obras maestras que nunca volverán a rodarse, pero ahora mismo el cine de género creo que vive una segunda Juventud y a mi modo de ver no quiero comparar, solo disfrutar del cine. Cada cosa en su momento.

9.Como y donde pueden adquirir material de Exhumed Movies Zine los fanaticos del cine de terror,horror,gore?
El fanzine y todo el material que editamos lo podéis consultar por las redes sociales (Facebook, Instagram o Twitter) y en el email exhumedzine@gmail.com    Allí os daremos información de todo con mucho gusto.

10.Pútridos planes futuros?
La banda que tenemos los miembros de Exhumed movies llamada W.O.B. sacará el año que viene un álbum conceptual sobre la figura de Paul Naschy/Jacinto Molina titulado “The Naschy experience”. Por lo demás ponernos a trabajar en unos proyectos cinematográficos y Sito sacara su nuevo fanzine “Los archivos secretos de Miskatonik”. Pero seguro que habrá más cosas…

11.Javi gracias por tu tiempo en esta entrevista,algo que desees agregar?
Solo darte las gracias por hacernos esta entrevista amigo, que tengas mucha suerte con todos tus proyectos.

Interview - Necrobutcher

1.Chaotic and destructive greetings from Perú, Cristiano! How are you old noisy warrior? How are going the things there?
Cristiano Passos – Hi, my friend! I’m doing fine, for sure! Thanks a lot for your interest about the old Necrobutcher, man! It’s always nice to talk about these old stories.

2.Tell us about more Necrobutcher, warrior brother...explain more about the putrid existence from Necrobutcher, how it was formed and how the beginnings were?
Cristiano Passos – So, Necrobutcher started in 1988, on the moth of September, with me, my brother Luciano on guitar and our friend Helder on drums. We were completely isolated here in our small city, because, although Florianópolis is the capital of Santa Catarina state, it was a small city back then. So, it was pretty difficult to get underground stuff and to be in touch with the scene, but soon we discovered the mail and all those contacts coming from zines, other bands, penpals...suddenly, a whole new world opened before our eyes and ears and we really felt like we were part of something. As for us, we were completely precarious in terms of equipment and recording techniques, but this was never a problem, because we simply wanted to be the noisiest band possible and these adversities somehow were good for our intentions, hahaha! At that time, there some heavy metal bands here, but they never accepted Necrobutcher as part of the scene, and we also didn’t want to hang out with them. It was very funny to see one of those guys looking for our LP released by Nuclear War Now some years ago, hahaha! Despite all these difficulties, we were very focused and devoted to making noise in the vein of Sarcófago, RDP, Brigada do Ódio, Crucifix, Protector, Genocídio, Terveet Kadet, Rattus...after starting the band, we got into the tape-trading scene and so our influences grew up fast as a shark. In a few months, we were totally integrated with the underground Brazilian scene and also listening to lots of great stuff that were circulating around the whole world, like Hellhouse, Occult, Genital Deformities, Total Mosh Project, Agathocles, ND and other Brazilian bands, like Dissector, for example, which was a huge influence on our music and attitude.

3.Necrobutcher in the 80s was a distorted from evil grind noise from Brasil, how much stuff did you edit? some stuff unpublished?
Cristiano Passos – Yes, we could be considered this kind of evil noise, really, but we didn’t care about labels. In fact, we cared, but we used to mix all them together, creating labels like “ultrafuckindeathblackgrindnoise”, hahaha! Lots of bands did that, by the way! Our first influences came from the metal world, what explains our “evil” image, but we never were satanists or any of those bullshits. Our main goal was to make the most bastard noise band of the world, only this. As for our stuff, everything I found is on the release made by NWN. We made some rehearsals recordings, but I didn’t find them. Probably some people may have any lost Necrobutcher stuff, but maybe I’ll never know that, unfortunately. 

4.Bastard influences in Necrobutcher?
Cristiano Passos – As I told before, our initial influences were HC and metal bands which sounded noisier, like Sarcófago, Exterminator, Genocídio, Protector, Vulcano, Terveet Kadet, Crucifix, Discharge, Olho Seco, RDP, Brigada do Ódio, Attack Epiléptico, Hellhammer, Venom...but very fastly, we started to trade tapes and so a whole universe of noise was open: Dissector, Nuclear Death, Napalm Death, Anarchus, Filthkick, Agathocles, Exit-13, Repulsion, G-ANX, Crawl Noise, Atrofia Cerebral, Terrorizer, Majesty, Sadus, 7MON, Sore Throat, Fear of God, Deathnoise, Anal Cunt, Hellhouse...well, the list is neverending, pal! It was a whole new world and we got fascinated with all the possibilities we had. Soon, we created several different side-projects to put out all those ideas we had in mind and so, besides Necrobutcher and SRMP, we had other 5 projects almost at the same time, hahaha!

5.Cristiano give us a short but concrete trip about the old grind noise scene from Brasil? specifically from your city and recommend some old grind noise bands, fanzines, labels.
Cristiano Passos – well, at the time of Necrobutcher, there was almost no grindnoise scene. We were probably one of the first to use this label (grindcore/noisecore), but there was Dissector, from other state, which didn’t use the term, but made a fucking noisy music. After this, there were also other bands which were great like Nuctemeron, Trucidator, Mayhem Decay Cudgel and maybe some others, although there was a strong extreme metal scene which mixed with this first wave of grindnoise. In our city, in 1989, there was VDS, a fuckin’ great band with only one demo, and also Paresthesic Neurodeformities, our side-project which was total noisecore, whose first demo was released in 1989 too. After this, a bigger grindcore scene started with bands like No Sense and Rot, both from São Paulo, soon followed by several noisecore acts which made the strongest grindnoisecore scene of the world, in my opinion, with bands like Anti-Tímpanos, Extrema Aflição Cruel, Ameaça, G.O.P., Extermínio Brutal, Masher, Industrial Holocaust, Industrial Noise, Noise  and lots of others. It’s interesting to say that most of these bands and band members are still on the scene and many are fronting several noisecore, grind and harsh noise acts, like Sifilis, Síndrome do Ódio, Defecal Geseophobia, Bastard God (more hc style), Academic Worms, Confusion, Pure Noise, NYAB, Existência Patogênica and lots of others, The Brazilian grindnoise scene is one of the strongest in the whole world (if not the strongest!) and all of them are pretty active so far, organizing several gigs and even a festival, called São Caos Fest, probably the biggest noisecore festival! You should come to Brazil, man! Here’s the land of noise, hahaha!

6.You know the extreme grind noise scene from Perú?
Cristiano Passos – yesssss, for sure!!! One of my best friends since the old times is Miguel Tipacti, the guy from Atrofia Cerebral, a crazy friend who is into noise since then and so has presented many projects from Perú, like Audición Irritable, Estallido, Insensibilidad Energica, Esperpento, Descarga Nociva…I also like the old metal scene from Peru, with bands like Mortem, Spasm, Penitencia, Pulverized Necro Brain, Contumacy…You always had a good scene over there, especially these noisecore acts…You should all be thankful to Miguel Tipacti for putting Perú in the world noise map, hehehe!

7.I have seen some reissues of Necrobutcher stuff in CD. Is there any proposal for it to come out in vinyl format?
Cristiano Passos – Well, there is not only the proposal, but it was already done by Nuclear War Now, in 2013! There was a Peruvian bootleg first, but I don’t know who did it. I’m not angry about that, for sure, but just would like to get some copies, hahaha! As for this NWN release, it was the bet we could do, since there were some recordings that were not available and some were also with a bad quality, although this is not the most important aspect of the release, considering we always listened to several badly recorded tapes since the old times. Besides this, we also gathered a lot of stuff from old zines and graphic stuff and it got really good in the end. As for the vinyl, I don’t have any copies so far and according to Yosuke (NWN), it sold very well, for my total surprise, hahahaha! In fact, I’d never imagine we could survive up to these days, pal! We were only a bunch of angry kids from a small city trying to cry out our disillusions with the world and the musical scene. So, it’s interesting to know that Necrobutcher is still a name to remember these days.

8.Now the members from Necrobutcher have another projects? bands?
Cristiano Passos – I’m the only one still involved with the metal/punk/noise scene. I play drums in a band called Antichrist Hooligans with some old brothers here in my city, a kind of metalpunk band, with a blackened mood, mainly due to our vocalist, who came from the black metal scene. We are on our second CD (the first came out in 2013 and the second has just been released by Hammer of Damnation) and we had also a demo released in tape in 2012 and a 7”ep (called “Nucklearwitch”) just released by the same label. As for my brother, Argemiro, known as Skull Detonator in the time of Necrobutcher, he never played again, and Helder (Sathan Leprofettus), our drummer at the time, he is still involved with experimental music and video art, but has nothing to do with the punk/noise/metal scene. We are still good friends so far.

9.Morbid future plans?
Cristiano Passos – Man, I don’t know about the future, but surely I expect to be alive to see what’s next, hahaha! Well, I hope I can still play drums for a long time with Antichrist Hooligans or any other punk or metal project. In fact, for my mental health, it’s great to be playing at the age of 44 and still be kicking some asses on the underground. Nowadays, me and my friend Guilherme have a small distro/label and so we help some bands to release their stuff in partnership with other small labels. We are also gathering together here in a group called Coletivo Desterro Noise, with members of other local bands like Sengaya, Pogo Zero Zero, Insalubre and the guy from the zine Silêncio Brutal, by means of which we are trying to carry out some underground gigs in our region and I think that’s all. In fact, I consider myself a lucky guy…so, I don’t want and don’t expect too much from life. Almost everything that I need to feel good I already got and that’s what matters, isn’t it?

10.Last sentences of death,Cristiano and thanks for your time in this interview! NECROBUTCHER KILLS!
Cristiano Passos – Man, thanks a lot for this opportunity of talking a little bit more about Necrobutcher and everything related with my experience in the underground. Thanks also for keeping all this stuff alive with your great webzine! Long live to the underground freaks like you!
