CADAVERIA
IN LATINOAMERICA
The
Interview
By Darkzen
Greetings my
dear readers , this time made me interesting that was bringing us surprises
Cadaveria our friend here for his tour in Latin America.
see a bit of its
history.
Cadaveria the
group is formed by the output Cadaveria Opera IX ( ex vocalist ) and Flegias (
ex drummer ) , this in 2001 . After
this, both form the band, along with Frank Booth , Killer Bob and Baron
Harkonnen , this great Italian band has a unique blend of symphonic gothic
metal with doom and black ! which is not the conventional sound! and among many
disks you can hear , which makes this band so special
After having
spent recent years in promoting and live shows in countries in Europe and Latin
America tour now CADAVERIA is ready to deal with future commitments and his
second guitarist Dick Laurent, has joined the combination. The quintet finished
with their fourth full-length album, entitled " Horror Metal",
released on January 31, 2012 (Bakerteam Records). A new era of blood, pain and
darkness has begun! and here I leave to Cadaveria that she tell us.
¡Thank you very much by this opportunity Cadaveria!
¿Cadaveria
who is behind the scenes?
Since the release of our latest album “Horror Metal” in January 2012 I never
stopped working with the band: interviews, promotion, merchandising, music
videos, tours and a recent DVD. I can really say there are very few behind the
scenes moments in my life as I’m constantly concentrated on music.
¿Tell us
five male and female vocalists who are your inspiration? Which was formed your
style.
My favourite singers are MJ Keenan from Tool and Skin from Skunk Anansie,
but I cannot say they are a source of inspiration. I have a particular voice
that switches from growl to clean passing through the screaming. I do training
on my own, this helps me to better know my potentialities and to design my
path. I always find the way inside me.
¿Cadaveria
who has been in this year, which surprise will bring us, in your tour?
2013 has been a year full of news and success. We have reprinted the debut
album “The Shadows’ Madame” with a new mastering and artwork and also Horror
Metal saw a new edition (the Undead Edition) in May, featuring two bonus
tracks. On October 22nd our first ever DVD entitled “Karma” has seen
the light after a long work of selection and editing. Finally we are back from
some great live experiences like the Belgian Metal Female Voices Fest and the
Latin American tour in Ecuador and Mexico. We are very excited for all these goals
we reached and we are ready to start the pre-production of the new record with
a great energy.
¿How you've
done this year with so much that happened in Europe, economically speaking,
this has affected the band?
Italians are used to make shift and go on. The economic crisis is a global
matter that is affecting the music business too. All bands are trying to keep
afloat. Fortunately we have a great passion for what we do, and this helps us
to go ahead and never turn back. If you stop you are lost.
¿Tell us a
little about your album ' Horror Metal' that style to show us your work?
“Horror Metal” is the most obscure album CADAVERIA has released so far. It
marked our return on the scenes after five years of absence and I can say fans
and critics were united in saying it is our best album ever. Surely it is the
one that better represents the current style of the band, a mix of Death, Black
and Doom inspired by horror movies, nightmares, cemetery stuff and darkness.
All this is merged with a dose of sickness and insanity. The eleven songs
featured in Horror Metal are plunged in the fog, mud and dust.
¿Who wrote
the songs?
I’m the responsible of all the lyrics while the music has been written in
cooperation with the guitarist Dick Laurent. Killer Bob cared about the
recording, mixing and mastering, while Marcelo Santos and Frank Booth are the
masters of the arrangements.
¿This has
been the best of your albums, your personal opinion and why?
I like all the record we released so far as each one represents a specific
period of my live and of my career. Being the most recent, Horror Metal is the
one I love most. Songs like Flowers in Fire, The Days of the after and Behind
and Death Vision have a great impact on stage and I’m always glad to sing them
live. Horror Metal is the result of a band that worked hard and seriously and
that has now reached a proper and personal style. It is the album of our
maturity, but this doesn’t mean we will sleep on this, rather it is a point to
start from and to go ahead with new ideas, improvements and experimentations.
¿You think
you have the Latin American public with this style of music?
When we make music we don’t think about attracting a specific segment of
fans, we compose music guided by our emotions. However it is undeniable that
every album we release is warmly welcomed in Latin America and the recent tour
in Mexico and Ecuador has confirmed this trend. I was curious about this so I
asked directly Mexican people: they answered me they love this mix of styles we
play and the fact our music is powerful and direct but you can always perceive
a melody in it.
¿That
musical influence has more Cadaveria, Black- Doom or Goth? Is difficult to
combine these styles?
I really don’t know, as I said we create music inspired by our feelings, by
our visions. We are not interested in labelling our genre and there is no
formula like 50% of Black and 50% of Doom. This would be absurd. We are
CADAVERIA and we play CADAVERIA music. If you like you can call it Horror
Metal.
¿You would
like to experiment with some heavier musical style as Black Death? ¡Look great
and have a voice!
We put no boundaries to our creativity. Black and Death elements are
already part of our style.
¿What is the
reason for which you feel identified by the dark, the mystical, the supernatural
and the occult?
It is something very personal that comes from the inside. I feel attracted
by all what is hidden and unknown and by all contradictions and opposites. I’m
darkness, I’m light.
¿Certainly
there are rumors that they will revive the first or second album next year. Is
that true?
Yes we will reprint “Far Away from Conformity”. It is sold out since 2006
and it is a very good album that deserves a second life. Stay connected on
cadaveria.com and facebook.com/Cadaveria for any updates.
¿You are
preparing a new version. dvd "Karma " , which will be released in
October and will be the first DVD of the band's career? ¿What a surprise we have the dvd?
There are many and many surprises in this retrospective double DVD. Fans
will not be disappointed. The disc one features our complete videography and
the making of the music videos. People will see the band at work as video
makers and creating the make-up and the pictures of the album covers. There is
a lot of unseen material in it: the band in the recording studio, photo
sessions, behind the scenes... The disc two focuses on our live activity from
2009 to 2013. There are extracts from many concerts we did in Italy, Mexico,
Romania, France... and you will be able to come in the tour bust and live some
authentic on-the-road live moments!
¿When we
have new material? ¡Heavier! ¡Darker!
We will start the pre-production of the new album in December, so we can
say 2014 will be the year! Yes, the new material will be heavy and dark for
sure!
Thank you!
Cadaveria to hear from you! The last words are all yours! For our readers and
your fans
MEMENTO AUDERE SEMPER!
