Interview to DIego of Demonized Legion

Interview by Luis Landeo 
Welcome Diego I will be direct for start this interview, Demonized Legion started in 2003 and you are working in the first full lenght debut, so why took for you release a full lenght after of 10 years of creation? 
Hail to all demons from South America!!! This full length must have been released in 2009, but we had some problems in the album recording, and the result didn’t satisfy us, so we decided to release “When Heaven Falls in Darkness” EP, before the full length. Now we are finishing the songs for the full length and probably in July we start to recording it.

The band in this 10 years had a lot changes of members, why this guys left the band? 
We had the same problems of most of the underground bands: common time to work. Most of the past members left the band because they didn’t have time to dedicate to Demonized Legion. Some of them live in other cities, and gets more difficult to rehearse or make gigs. The actual line up has three years; I think it’s the most consistent line up since the beginning of the band.

So how goes the recording days? the full lenght will include songs of the first demo:"The Return of Death's Empire" (2005) and the EP:"When Heaven Falls in Darkness" (2009) or are you working in new songs for it? 
We’re going to record only new songs for this album. Nine tracks of the most chaotic Death Metal! We are analyzing some studios here, and also in the other neighbor cities, but we haven’t decided yet who will produce it. This recording is very important for the band; we don’t want to make the same mistakes we did on the last recording, so, let’s not hurry things. First, we will finish all the songs, and then we decide the studio and the producer.

The band worked in live album: "Caos aos Vivos...em um Sanguinário Ataque da Besta" (2011) so how born the idea of work in live album? how was the reception in brazilian public? 
It was the first show with the actual line up in our town. Our friends were curious to see how would be the show. I can say the show was incredible. In this show we had the opportunity to play with Calvary Death, a legendary horde from Minas Gerais. Unfortunately, the warrior Ruddy Souza (V/G) died few months later, due to surgical complications. Curiously, the recording was not planned; we decided to produce it few hours before the beginning of the show. I believe we did a good job, no overdubs were used on it. That’s really how the band sounds alive. The reception has been the best possible: a tour around the country to present the live album, sixteen cities during three months, many drinks, insanity and Heavy Metal!

Lets talk about the lyrics of the band I checked some of your lyrics and some of this lyrics are about: Satanism, and I know some metal medias dont ask that but dont you think in global metal scene talk and sing about satanism is like a cliche now in metal? do you think this can bore fans? I ask this cuz many people dont search new bands cuz they find bands singing the same message in every song. 
We don’t approach Satanism to get more fans. This is the theory we have identification, it’s what we believe. Satanism tells us to be Gods of ourselves, this is a big responsibility, which requires a deep reflection in each act we have in our lives. We know that many bands talk about Satanism to “scare” others, or to give an evil image. For us, Satanism is Philosophy. This theory conducts our choices, our alliances and our feelings. Death teach us how to go until it, since life is a war, Satanism is our strategy in this war.

The band will release the full lenght like an independent release, how many copies are you going to release? how many dollars will cost this? and are you thinking in a tour? 
We don´t know if we are going to release the full length by ourselves yet. We have some proposals from some Brazilian Labels to release, but we still studying all them. Probably, we will just confirm when we start the recordings. About a tour, it’s a strong wish. We did the Brazilian tour in 2012, which passed by sixteen cities, it was a great experience we want to repeat as fast as possible.

Good luck with the full lenght, hope the release, do you have any last words to end this interview?
Thanks again for the interview warrior! Sorry for the long time to answer. I hope we can play in your country as soon as possible. Headbangers, keep the Metal flame burning your soul!!! Hail Lucifer, hail the rebellion!
