What´s the name of your band? Profane Creation

How was the band formed? Was in  1991 with when  joined 4 friends intented to make a metal band

Can you tell about your band? The band was born in 1991 and Dead in 1996..... now in 2014 Profane Creation  is returning from the deads, after about 20 years, with more anger than ever. Was released in Nov/2013 the album "Prelude to the Dark Side" with the old songs (1993 - 1995) , and in May/2014 was released "Supremacy/Nema" together in a new CD/Digipack. Profane Creation is now composing new songs, and planing future gigs. The desecration will continue... 

What was the ambitions of the band when you started? I don't remember if at that time we had any ambitions, just play Death Black Metal

Where are all band members from?/Who does what in the band?

We are all from São Paulo State in Brazil.

Rochesther -guitar/vocals

Anyldo - Bass

Rogers - drums

Could you explain your music to someone that haven't heard you? We play an thematic black metal, but sounding influenced with many metal styles, Thash and Black the most, but we have Heavy, Doom, Death Metal. anyway, 100% Metal

Where was your first gig? Our first live presentation was in 1992, here in our city at a Rock/Metal festival called Cordeirokolis in front to 2 thousand people, awesome

Where was the latest gig? Our Last was in 1996, since we come back from the deads just few months ago and we,re working in new stuff before next gigs...

Who writes your songs?/Who writes the music who writes lyrics? Me (Rochesther) and Ciro (vocal) in the past, today Me and my Brother Rogers (drums)

Who has the best since of humor in the band? Rogers (drums) I think

What's good/bad with the band?/What genre do you feel you are? Bad with the band is only the lack of time to rehearsals to push fast the recording of the new stuff,  otherwise is ok, we are a Black Metal band

Why did you pick that particular style?/What are your songs about? Black Metal is the style we like more, our songs are about profanation in general,  religions as for morals and all stupid things on human behavior

Do you write your own material or mainly covers? Just our own songs and an cover sometimes in live presentations

Have you made any albums?/If yes what are they? well, we had 5 years existence in the past, and all our releases are from 91 - 96, a split CD/LP Inquisition/ Profane Creation, CD "prelude to the dark side" inlcuding the early demos and CD/Digipack "supremacy / Nema" including the 94 and 95 recording on a single CD, we came back just this year 2014  and we´re preparing new stuff for 2015, Metal Rules 

Do you have any clips on YouTube? nothing official, but there are some songs people put there

How old are you?/What got you started in music? As for Profane Creation, we start in 1991, stoped in 1996 and back now in 2014, as for us, I'm 41 years old, the youngest in the band has 36, we started about 17 - 18 year old I think

Witch band is the best you´ve seen? so many bands, but recently Immortal

Have you had any bigger tours from start to now? no, just some gigs, but we're planing on bigger tour for a coming future

How big crowds do you usually play for? About 300 Metalmaniacs

What are the plans for the rest of the year? working in new songs and recordings

Is it easier to get your inspiration from older bands or from bands more modern? Only from the older, the new & modern bands don't inspire us to create

What are your sources of inspiration? Metal at first, the earliest Thrash Metal, the Black metal from early 90's some Death Metal bands and the will to profane the hypocrisy of the modern world, cause the most things is just a lie

What's the first step when making a new song? usually we start with some guitar riff, not with thinking about, the song need come naturally, or will not be a good song

How do you feel about the downloading of music instead of buying albums? is bad, mainly for the record label, but is bad too to the entire scene because if you withdraw the money from the investors, I mean generally, if there's no money there's no promoting new bands or albuns so the Metal scene goes more weak, more weak, I'm not against download of free music, because it has a good side too, to promote a new band for example, I think ideally do both, buy some albuns and download some stuff .

What would be your dreams for the band? Play in Wacken Open Air would be nice, just like a dream hahahahahah

Besides your own music, what genres and bands do you listen to? we hear all metal style and some punkrock and rock, as for me, I hear just metal, because I really don't like other things, but I like very much  bands as Twisted Sister, W.A.S.P,  Death SS as Slayer, Destruction, Kreator, Bathory and the Extremes Immortal, Krisium, Sarcófago, Destroyer 666 , DarkThrone.... really a lot of bands.....

What would be your greatest fears for the future?  would not say fear, but I think the world is entering a new global war, and it's no good for no one, specially when the reasons for it are fake, indeed it's nice to see the war for tv, not over our heads 

When you are on stage, what do you fear most then? No fear on the stage, I just think in the music hahaha

Have you been part of any other projects? I don't, but my Brother (Rogers - Drums) was in Teenage Lobotomy, official ramones cover in Brazil, and Anyldo (bass) was in Final Holocaust an 80's style Thash Metal bands

What do you work with outside of the band and the music? I am owner of a female clothing shop and rock t-shirts, Rogers is manager in a building stuff store and Anyldo is public official

What would you do if there was no music? I do not know but the world would be boring

How important are your fans? I could say they are even more important even than the band because without them we would not exist

How often do you rehearse? unfortunately less than we need at moment, is being very difficult to reconcile our free time 

Where do you rehearse? in a paid studio

Name 2 of your own songs you like at the moment? Alone in the Abyss and Nema

What drives a band that isn't all that famous and renowned to try to make a living on their music and to keep playing? I think because it is a nice life style, would be great to every musician if they could earn money with their music, unfortunately is very difficult, but I think the one has to believe in their potential and move on, if not believe will never happen

Do you have any webpages? just In Facebook:  facebook.com/bandaprofanecreation (like us) and profanecreation.blogspot.com 

Any pearls of wisdom for all other bands out there? Just Play Metal and wear in black hahaha

Describe your show, visually and musically Black metal energy with the traditional "clothing and makeup"  from style, torches in fire when possible, and two long inverted crosses on stage

What advice would you like to give other bands? Go ahead with your choice, don't think in the money cause it is very rare in the metal underground scene, play for fun, for metal maniacs, or if you just wanna play for money try another music style

What are the biggest obstacles for a band? money hahahaha, in past times to promote a band were difficult, but today with internet it turned easy, the main problem today is money to good instruments, recordings and get good places to play

Tell us about upcomming gigs and why we should be at them? Coming for 2015, after the recording of the new stuff, you all need be there because would be awesome, for us and if you like real metal bands you will have a nice experience, Metal for everyone

How would you describe your sound in one sentence sound to the apocalypse

What was one of the most quarrelsome times for you in the band? our relationship is very good, none quarrelsome time till now 

Whats your Pre-show ritual? drinking some whiskey or beer, tuning the instruments, screaming a little , nothing special 

Do you have anything to add? We would like to Thanks a lot Robex for this place in your blog to expose our ideas, stay in metal, hope see you all soon, Metal Rules.
