POLINA PSYCHEYA! IS HERE!
BEAUTIFUL AND WOMAN FATAL!
By Darkzen
Greetings
friends! This week I bring you an interesting talk with a very talented singer
in the Death Metal, fatal and captivating! Polina Psycheya, singer of the band
All I Could Bleed! of Russia!
So,
go with the interview!
Hello
there! My friend! It is a pleasure! Thank you very much! For this opportunity!
Tell us who
is Polina, behind that of powerful voice?
Heil
from Russia, friend! Polina Psycheya is Polina
Psycheya, my voice comes from the depths of my soul, I’m not hiding behind it
and not doing it just for shocking.
Which is
your formation is your voice? As you train your voice?
When I came in «All I Could Bleed» band I was offered
use an extreme vocal, I even didn’t try it previously. After tasting, I knew
exactly what it was mine. My "trainings" are only on the rehearsals,
I never studied growling\scream, I just know how to do it, I feel it. It’s
important to find a "common language" with your body, no one textbook
or articles never explain you how to use extreme vocal without own detriment,
except yourself.
What are
your hobbies? Polina who is outside of the stage? Do you live with your music
or You have another job?
I want to combine these two questions, because they
are close in meaning. I’m an artist and costume designer, sportswoman. But I
wouldn’t have to separate the interests of the band, all what I do is
interconnected. My skills anyway
embedded in «All I Could Bleed». Well and accordingly my identity cannot either
as separate from the band. In my music, me on stage it's just me, as I said
earlier. I don’t wear a mask, perhaps even take off my mask imposed by everyday
life.
What are
your influences? What are your favorite singers?
It was always a difficult question for me, I have a
lot of favorites from heavy to classical music. I think a short answer will be
quite banal. I was strongly influenced by musicians and singerf from «Rammstein»,
«Metallica», «Death», «Pantera», «Children Of Bodom», «Arkona» (I cannot
mention my brothers), «Motorhead», early Mylene Farmer, he he, and so on. Can we
not dilute an alphabet of bands?)
What does mean the name of the band?
Hard to say what it means for other musicians from «AICB»,
because this name was given 10 years ago, and I'm in the band 5 years. Well, for
me it has the most direct value-all I could express by blood. All I could say on
language of aggression, the most expressive of existing in whole world. And I
do it.
Have a
powerful voice! You have beautiful eyes! and you're very attractive, as you can
combine all of that within a genre like Death Metal?
Why not? I totally belong to the world of heavy music
and I'll never go out of it. Appearance is just a gift by nature, like a bonus.
Death Metal is a state of my mind, not commerce or something like that ... it's
just a huge part of me. And I'm happy that I have an opportunity to be not just
a listener, but also to be an executor of my favorite genre. I have an
opportunity to express my words and thoughts publicly with all inherent to me
aggression.
In 2011
you released the album "Burying the Past", when there will be some
video? Such acceptance the album?
We don’t plan to shot a video on « Burying the Past »,
because this album is already outdated, and we go forward. Video will
necessarily accompany the upcoming album.
Exist
some concept behind the album, some songs you wrote?
Concept of the lyrics in "Burying the Past"
is description of a certain periods of my life, deeply hidden under a veil of
speech turns. I wrote it to would bury my past and start a new round of my
life. The second album will be completely different from the first, including
lyrics, it was the only copy of the "about me." But I want to add
that I never wrote and I will never write about love and other nonsense-it is
really an important point.
I've
heard you've been compared to Angela Gossow, you think of this?
I really enrage, when someone begin to compare me with
Angela. We have nothing except female sex. She is not the first woman in metal,
as I of course. I would be more pleased to hear comparisons with Chuck
Schuldiner, for example) Superficial comparison only because we are both women
with extreme vocal is absurd... By the way, I hear about her existence only a
few years ago, when I started to get frank comparisons, so she is neither my
idol, and even more so as an example.
But don't think that I hate "Arch Enemy", I respect all of my colleagues,
even if I don't listen their music.
Tell us
about your experience with Children of Bodom concert? I saw on your tour here
in Latin America, good!
It was really awesome. We were played on the best
scene of Yekaterinburg, before a huge warmed crowd, who met us with dignity. In
the dressing room we were constantly with "Children Of Bodom", with
our childhood's idols. They are true professionals on stage and behind the
stage are very open and friendly people. Just gorgeous. We talked with everyone,
got autographs in several copies, guitar picks, and we even hold the legendary
Alexi Laiho's guitar. I look forward to play with them again and again,
including in Latin America someday) I know that there waiting for us, and we
are waiting for this visit.
How is
the Russian Metal scene, in special of Death Metal? I always see lots of
experimental bands coming from Russia
In Russia everything is bad actually, we don't have
metal scene as such, and nothing supports its existence. Bands cease to fight
for survival, break, lose talents. The only one, who really broke into the
world, is "Arkona", but they came to this more 10 years. I should add
that in Russia began to suppress the heavy music and start to prohibit concerts
of metal bands. Therefore I see the prospect for "All I Could Bleed"
only abroad.
What are
the plans to the band in the next years? Release something new, we can expect
surprises, Tours or Video
We shot the concert DVD, when we played with "Children
Of Bodom", now expect when it will be complete assemble. At the same time
recording of new album is on full swing and very soon it will be released. It
will very diverse and powerful album, in my opinion. Ideally, it would be nice
to go on tour to support the album, but I cannot promise anything, because we
haven't yet signed a contract with the manager.
Thank you
very much! For your words! The last words are yours to all our readers!
I hope it will not the last words in my life) Well,
stay true to yourself and do not turn from the path of the metal, whatever
happened, and we will help you with that!
