interview with Bastard Son
How is it that you started playing music? I really don't know how anyone wouldn't want to play music, it's the universal bond!
What are your names? / Who plays what? / How old are you?
Have you had other previous members? Yes. I replaced a good friend of ours Mr. Jason Kurz on vocals.
What do you think about people downloading music instead of buying records nowadays? I'm all for all of it.. However the music is being heard right on!
How do you think the music industry have changed because of this? I think it's easier for fans to access the tunes which is great.. That being said a lot are getting it for free..It's always been about the music not the cash for us, thus playing Extreme Metal.. You need the generate cash for a band to tour and pay for all your album and promo shight. Anyone who wants to be a rock star should be fucking killed. It nothing but helps us I think.. Kids in shity countries that couldn't get the tunes before can now..Creating more fans and spreading our tunes.Even if they are getting it for free..
What do you think of my work? We all appreciate your work a lot.. I know I speak for a lot of bands who appreciate cats like yourself taking your time for the love of Metal.
How do you think and know that this interview will help you in the music business? Every interview is more interest towards the band opening doors to new listeners and potential fans..like this one straight outta Fuckin Sweden!!
Is it easier to find inspiration from older bands, or bands that are more active today? Honestly when looking for musical inspiration it could come form anywhere. I think we've been involved in Metal since it's early inception so we've kinda evolved with it rather aspired from it.
What advice would you give other bands or artists? Always remember why you started playing and all your greatest moments. Stay true to your friends and band mates and live in the present.. Practice might not make perfect, but you'll be on your way. Keep your ego in check, the talent in this world in unbelievable and you have an opportunity to learn from it all..You're not fucking special
How do you get psyched for a gig? Hahaha I am naturally ready to go all the time.. It's more like containing it in a regular day.. We always check out all the bands on whatever bill we play. Depending on our spot it's always a good way to get heavied up.
Do you have any new material? Yes we do and we'll be heading back to BoneGrinder Records in the new year to begin tracking our new album.. This will be our third album working with Robbie Boyd at BoneGrinder in Peterborough..
