Goatvomit Interview for My Heart Bleeds for You 'zine... questions were sent around summer 2001 or something around, answers has been written by Hideous Abomination on April 2004 (-!!-): almost 3 fucking years later!

Interview conducted by Lord hsinaV of the deepest abyzzz.

 

-Salve Hideous Abomination Of The Perverted Temple Of Necromancy...

-Fiendish salutes to thee.

-Are you so kind to... tell me some informative details about the story of Goatvomit? I mean: when you formed the band, releases you've done, other members, news and similar...

-The band was anoimed by the Church of the Goat Baphomet in the impious year XXXIV A.S. and the demo tape was unleashed at once; now it has just been re-released as a split mc w/Kratornas (see interview -V.) by Witchhammer from Thailand. Also Nuclear War Now! from the States released our 7"ep (sold out) one and a half years ago. We use session members for the ritual drums. It's I and Bestial Necroperversor who are the eternal commanders of the criminal priesthood. Soon we'll enter the studio to record our full lenght Lp for NWN! again.

-For which reason did you form Goatvomit? For a real necessity or just because you wanted to have a band on your own (Do you believe if I say that neither I am able to understand the sense of this question?! It was almost three damn years ago that I wrote this questionary and I have to say it's quite weird to read this shit now... -V.)?

-For committing sacrilege, indulging in malevolence, but above all resurrecting the early malignant black metal spirit of obscurity that it was almost dead when we formed the band. FUCK THE CURRENT 'WAR' BLACK METAL TREND! Grinding morbidity prevails!

-For which motive you'll be stop to be part of it?

-If I went off the black metal underground.

-"Hideous Abomination...", "Bestial Necroperversor Of Traditional Goat Worship And Mockery"... why have you decided to adopt such long war-names? They reminds me a lot anccient kults like Beherit, old Demoncy and Blasphemy... and your music too is undenially influenced by these bestial entities, plus a strong Sarcòfago reminescence, so it seems you're attracted by the most perverted, blasphemic and out-for-the-masses side of true Black Metal Cult...

-Everything that lies in wait is a constant inspiration to us. And we're really obsessed by the morbid tunes of desecrating obscure acts such as the Eternal Ross Bay Desecraters (Nuklear Godz Ov War -V.), Black Prophecies, Cremation (can), Lord Diabolus/Goatvulva/Beherit, Black Crucifixion, An Erotic Funeral, Dead Christ, Satanic Darkness, Impurity, Goatpenis, Unburied (fin), Archgoat, Havohej, Libation/Itnos, Demoncy, Mystifier, Naked Whipper etc etc hail Radiation Sickness and the whoremongers of Black Pentagram!

-Did you know about the Blasphemy re-union (I read that you're into Blasphemy a lot...)? What do you think about this fact?

-Luckily it's RIP once again.

-I read an interview on which you said that the thing that attracts you the most in a song were the vocals... from which vocalists do you take the main inspiration in your way of sceaming/growling? I think Holocausto of Beherit is one... which are for you the best vocalists in the whole death/black metal history, by the way?

-Nothing is more important thhan the person/individualities behind a band and the authentic/old feeling. Quorthon, Holocausto of Nuclear Vengeance, Black Winds, David Vincent, Dead, Franta Storm, Vorphalack, Wagner Antichrist, Attila Csihar, Big Boss, Jeff Becerra, 'Evil" Chuck, Kam Lee, L. G. Petrov (and the old screaming true (un)godly Swedish Death Metal cult), early Carcass, Maury from the eternal gods Black Prophecies, Desolate/Wicked Warlock, Lord Angelslayer, Slayed Necros/Satanic Slaughter (S. S.: what a shit -V.).

-What should you do if the next trend will be the one to play B/M in the vein of Beherit/Blasphemy? What would you do? How do you'll behave? Will you annoy a such thing? Will you stop with the Goatvomit style?

-Since you questioned this 2 years ago (I would say 3 years ago -V.), now it turned out to be some prophetetic utterances. I'm totally disgusted at this wannabe 'evil goat warriors' PC kids and moneygrubbers - especially those so-called underground labels - who profiteer in the new trend. They're ALL the essence of FALSENESS!! Die in public humiliation!!! Do we stop w/ GOATVOMIT? We'll continue violating when those pathetic wimps are normal fools. Black metal underground was meant to be a family thing and belongs to us!

-What point do you want to reach with your music and/or with Goatvomit? Where do you want to arrive?

-We have arrived.

-What should you do if a day a big label like Osmose or Nuclear Blast would like to sign-up a deal with you? Don't you'd like to gain a lot of money in a such case?

-I don't think so. That sort of labels exploit true unerground bands and a big promotional campaign means that a lot of wimps will buy your music and that's not our case. Hail black obscurity eternal! (In my opinion Osmose is a great label and Impiety, Arkhon Infaustus or Conqueror/Revenge are not that popular in the sense of appearing on highly diffused metal press, and anyway I like what I like, not what's underground or what's on a famous label -V.)

-I know of another band called Goatvomit (from the U.S., I guess. I think they play standard death/black)... do you know too about them? Ever heard of them, anyway? What would you do if a day they would sue you because of this case of homonymy?

Never heard of them, but I remember a dutch 'zine w/ the same name (it was the guy of Kerberos I think). Anyway who cares? There are several bands having the same name like Armageddon, Frost, Pest etc.  In the late 80's the dutch band Thanathos had brought a suit against a greek shitty band for the same reason. I also remember Asphyx had resented the greek band Asfyx (RIP) (Also Kult Ov Azazel -formerly Azazel- changed name because they got a sue from the finnish Azazel (RIP) -V.).

-What's your position amongst the new tendency in the B/M underground of the bands to call themselves having N/S ideologies? Don't you thhink it's a bullshit? Don't you think it's just another trend? Do you agree with the N/S statements? Can you explain e why yes or not?

-I respect older NS BLACK metal bands formed by old school black/death veterans only! The main trait of these NS newcomers is total idiocy. Personally I don't care for someone's skin colour as long as he's OK w/ me.

-Which is the most recurrent definition you give to your own person (Yez, this one question was the fukkin' top of the POPS -V.)?

-I occasionally revalue several things/situations. 

-Do you fear physical death? Do you believe in the existence of the underworld?

-The 'underworld' signifies regeneration and I fear not the cycles of Life-Death-Rebirth (...Buddhist? -V.). 'Departure from the mortals' isn't a quite enjoyable thhought though. EVIL!!!

-Ok Hideous... thanx for answering these questions... (Pure shit by my side! -V.) please illuminate me about your (intetions about) future plans et similia... and last but not least say some blasphemies to end this interview...

-Soon there will be a vinyl version of our demo material featuring 2 bonus songs as well as a probable 3 way split 7"ep. And as I told you we're rehearsing some VIOLENT chaotic material which is intended for our Lp. Thanx for the intie. Wallow in the mud and worship pure unholiness!!!
