Welcome To Arsenal Del Metalero Kaoma Mega, well to start this interview I have to say your music sounds very good, is interesting the mixture of Industrial Metal with Death Metal and a litle touch of Black Metal in the voice, but my question to start is how goes the process of recording of third album? and what is the name of this new production?
Hello everybody, firstly thank you Luis for the oppurtunity of an interview in your space. The new album has been recorded some months ago, it has been mixed and mastered at Hertz Studios in Poland (Vader Behemoth Decapitated...). It is called 'Beat of Apocalypse', which is the name of the opener song. Recently we made a deal with the newborn independent label 'Eternal Tombs Records' and it will be released probably around jan-feb 2014.
This is something we did not plan to do, it has been quite natural for us to use nicknames as it's something that fits well with the concept of a band like Throne of Molok. It's like we show ourselves from a different side, the one in which we express our most 'extreme' feelings.They simply are art names.
Since we started playing together, voice has been always the most 'black metal' element in our music, and the whole sound is the end result of what we want to express with the music. Lyrics accompain very well the feeling of the listener in our apocalyptic insane world.
The original project -year 2001- was an industrial ambient duo (me and a friend), but we never realized an audio demo. In late 2004 when me, N.kultus and Morg started playing together and recorded the first demo, at that time we didn't have a name yet and when i mentioned the name of that old unreleased project, it just sounded great to all of us and we decided to use it. Molok is an ancient God. His cult is connected with fire and sacrifice. It represents the deviant world of nowadays, which need human sacrifice to keep living on and on. Just to mention, i also used the only two songs of the original old project ('Micron' and 'Cosmic Rays Apocalypse') in the first two albums as instrumental tracks.
Personally I like Rammstein, their music is very simple and powerful. I think the best thing of combining industrial/electronic sounds with metal/rock is that you can really make your music sound different from any other out there, but this depends mostly from the electronic elements cause you can create infinite sounds with synthesizers, you can not really do this with guitars if you decide to make them sound 'metal'. So I believe it's really difficult that two industrial metal band sound very similar even if one is trying to imitate another, whicht is something i really disappoint. I think every industrial metal band should sound different, that's the most important and intresting thing in this 'genre'. So if there are bands inspired by Rammstein, i hope they not try to be a (bad) copy of the original!
Basically I use different instruments to create that kind of sound, mostly hardware synthesizers like Virus or some 90's unit. I don't feel like it's a difficult thing to combine synthesizers with speed / extreme metal ideas as for me it's the natural way to write music; i am mainly a piano/keyboard musician and just later i started to play guitar just as secondary instrument, cause i wanted to add powerful metallic guitars to my compositions. Usually we need to spend more time on the arranging and mixing process, to make all parts and all frequencies fit together in the best way. This could not be very simple sometimes.
After the release of the album we will play gigs in support of it. Actually we're planning everything with the label so we have no tour dates confirmed, our main goal is to promote the new album in the best way possible.
All fans can now connect and listen the titletrack of the new album and very soon we're going to post the music video of another new song. We're very active in this period so check out next Throne of Molok news!
