"All our albums have a slightly different theme and this one is no different"
Interwiew to Luis Landeo
Is good to have an interview with one of the most important Blackened Death Metal band from New Zealand in this website Rigel. How are you?
Good brother! just extremely busy with work, writing our new album and all the other things that eat up my time!How goes the sells of the last release: Relentless?
Good last I heard, we haven't had an update from Unique Leader in a while.In peru obviously some people will want to know about this release what is the concept behind the lyrics? who did the art for this album?
All our albums have a slightly different theme and this one is no different. For Relentless I wanted to make things a little more direct and explicit on this album, but still intelligent and thought out. I actually took alot of inspiration from more old school metal and rock lyrics from bands like: Motorhead, Danzig, George Thorogood and ACDC but wanted to re interpret them in a different manner.
The art was done by Adam Craft. He's a tattooist here who did most of my work. We wanted to try something a little different to go with this album, Jamie St Merat did awesome work on the first two covers but we felt that on this one we needed a different feeling with regards to the art.Are you thinking to produce a new album for this 2012?
We're working on it right now, but theres no release date just yet. For us theres no real hurry, we're more concerned with taking our time to make a quality album. It's looking like this one is going to be more complex and epic with regards to the song structures so it's important to make sure you have the dynamics right and that it flows well. It's hard to make the longer songs flow well.Dawn of Azazel did an European tour an asiatic tour. how was this tour for Europe and Asia?
Asia was amazing. To travel to these non western countries and find so many fans was a really welcome surprise. They are so enthusiastic for metal , they were really some of the best shows we have had the pleasure of playing.
Europe was great too for totally different reasons. I love the culture of Europe, and our last trip in particular was awesome. Krisiun and Immolation are favorites of ours and a big influence, so to tour with them and party with such genuinely cool guys was a special experience. Massive music are also a very professional touring company that helped make the tour a very stress free experience.Do you think there is any chance of seeing you playing in a tour in South America?
We would love to. Its really just a question of money. We will get there eventually. When you live so far away from everything it can make the travel pretty expensive, so its important to wait for the timing to be right to make the most of it.Do you have any message for your fans?
Hails to all our Peruvian fans, thanks for your support and hope to see you soon!
