1.-BAPHOMET THRONE HELLS was born after 2 previous bands as SATAN FLESH and ATMOSFERA FUNEBRE, what provide us this new monstrosity that you didn´t gave us with your other bands?
B. A cleanly and more worked sound, lyrics with more vision and more spiritual conception and well structured in order to develop and canalize our capacities to the dark cult and the ritual of death that we execute .... Also many years of experience on the underground ambit placing us as a band with people who have enough national support and also South American support to break heads on our presentations.!! Hatred, anger and proselytism anti-Christian are still valid with BTH as with the previous bands.
2.-Talking about the sound, I heard it like the SATAN FLESH sequence, Could be this because you have enlisted to ASMODEUS, who is also a member of this horde?
B. - Actually those are two completely different bands. SATAN FLESH was an awesome band imposed by the speed, a band with a lot of technique imposing South American black metal, it´s a shame its descent this times. But now I announce a return under another alignment and even with a recording studio ...
I should also clarify that B.T.H. is a band that was born under the leadership of ASMODEUS, it´s completely his idea looking for a self-expression to which we were called and added into this big demoniac horde today ..!
3.-Something happened in your previous bands was that many of your songs were created in your room, using help with a PC and that in my opinion makes your recordings sounded too digital, Will you keep still using technology for the recordings of the band or will you use the old system?
B. - mmmm .... None of the recordings or songs of ATMOSFERA FUNEBRE were created on that way, those were created during our trials and on the classically way, structured in the rehearsal room.
Now used elements such as editing programs and audio creation to digitize any idea is not uncommon this days among the bands that have more developed awareness to exploit these technologies at its best, I have used these tools to capture my thoughts on my personal projects that do not have relation with my bands.
4.-The band is rather peculiar because they have not distributed material yet (at least you didn´t distribute yet when I saw him a few months ago), and you are being presented at many shows with very good reception. How much do you think it helps the name of the line-up to BAPHOMET HELLS THRONE acceptance of? What it offers the band on alive show to who haven´t had the chance to see them in a live show yet?
B. – Well the experience and the years that we have paying tribute to the metal it has given us a special place in our scene, all members of BTH come from different large hordes that have released great and unique materials in the history of Bolivian underground ... Asmodeus (ex Necromancy, Bestial Holocaust, Satan `s Flesh) Jesus Death (Atmosphere Funebre, Bestial Holocaust, SOS, Worship the Pestilence) and myself ( Atmosphere Funebre, Bestial Holocaust, Satan `s Flesh and other bands which I momentarily pass and bands out of my country which I recorded vocals as a Spiritualism and Pogrom of Arg in certain special topics)
5.-Why did you decide to put aside your ATMOSFERA FUNEBRE band, having you already built a name in the scene and be known by the specialized scene (magazines, radios, etc.)?
B. – I do not leave it aside although we decided to give us some time to be more awareness and canalize our dark energies on the devout essence of ATMOSFERA FUNEBRE this days, we are writing new songs between Jesus death and I, actually we are the only two ATMOSFERA FUNEBRE real line-up since the beginning. We had been friends and a lot of warriors on the line-ups of the band but none of them stayed into it for our decision, for many reasons we have excluded these allies of the black metal!
6.- ATMOSFERA FUNEBRE made several international shows in ARGENTINA and PERU. Can you tell us about those experiences? How did you find those scenes if you compared with the BOLIVIANA scene?
B. - With the same customs ...! All South America on the real underground scene has the same customs; it has the same limitations and the same potential. We enjoyed the metal excesses and we know pleasant people and great personajes, we lived the history of each country within its borders. As a band we did what we knew to do leaving the name of our country up!
7.-What are the most serious problems faced by your other bands and your current band with recordings, shows, trials, etc.. What did it make to don´t materialize your work or What endanger a professional album?
B. - The work of each members of the band puts time limits to us, especially to me because I work out of the town. After that we haven´t another inconvenient. and it will come soon the professional disk of B.H.T and later the ATMOSFERA FUNEBRE recording!
8.-Listening the songs of BAPHOMET THRONE HELLS, those are built on the same vein of SATAN FLESH, short´s, heavy´s and fast´s songs. The band wants to be the NUNSLAUGHTER of South America (hahaha!!)
B. - I think Nunslaugther wants to be South American hahaha!!! Or it used to be like that ... of course such a comparison is reasonable for the devotion that we have to true death metal, black magic, devotion and cult! Actually both ATMOSFERA FUNEBRE as BAPHOMET THRONE HELLS enjoy the blessings of the South American metal finding their own sound.
9. - Asmodeus accompanies you on guitars and JESUS DEATH in drums, Is this your perfect line-up? Why don´t you include a bassist in your live presentations?
B. – The perfect line-up, as you said, for the moment it doesn´t exist someone who coverts our ideological believes ...! And share the spirituality, the full commitment and devotion to what we preach, you can find a lot musicians everywhere but it´s hard to find people who has the courage or the guts to make real and extreme metal with Satanic or Luciferits slogans and precepts!
10.-Your BESTIAL HOLOCAUST begun with the recording of the spectacular demo ODIO Y MUERTE’ and the first Ep. both were fantastic. What you can tell us about that experience?
B. - The best and real times of Bestial Holocaust, it was gratifying to see grow up the name in a moment of true spiritual expression and belief of words philosophy and unchristian structures, it was for me an unfortunate event for a betrayal, during the facts of some nefarious Impostor made by a previous member of the band as well as the new members of the band assumed the head with banal ideas and plagiarism lewd, divinely masturbating in the past of a great horde ..!
11.-Why do you left BESTIAL HOLOCAUST? Talking about the way that you see after you left BESTIAL HOLOCAUST, do you think to that band lot change in the musical way?
B. - I felt betrayed by the people around me, the band have been predisposed to change their stance, sound and philosophy. We should looking for what is best for us and something whit you feel good ..! and bestial it wasn´t food for my soul anymore for the unrespect that Satanel imposed to the name ...!
12.-Talking about BESTIAL HOLOCAUST, this is the last question that I do of your first band, Will you keep using the IMPOSTOR song in your recordings or alive? (Knowing that the song is yours .. of your first band)
B. - I do not use anything in favor of ATMOSFERA FUNEBRE. We play the song because it belongs to us... the question should be that if bestial holocaust will continue using and defaming songs that does not belongs to them knowing from where comes the authorship and the roots...! Looking into this issue I throw words of threat and physical torture at the heads of the bestial holocaust prohibiting such a demonstrations and giving them to assume the replicas of our fury. After they plagiarize the final extermination they never touched the songs alive again, that should tell you something, isn´t it?
13.-Let's talk about the music, personally I call it pure DEATH / BLACK SouthAmerican metal, almost without EUROPEAN OR NORTH AMERICAN influence, your growled voice makes your songs sound more like a death metal music. How could you describe the sound of the band for whom has not had a chance to listen it yet?
B. - You have described it very well .. ! Death black metal or black death metal with the purest sound rooted in the Old South America!
14.-In the lyric is obvious the Satanismt, from the name of the band to each track, is it simply hatred to Christianity or do you have a preliminary study of obscure texts to write the tracks?
B. – We have assumed a greater awareness on the topics of the lyrics for each track, trying to provide it real proportions that our spirituality wants to express on that way we have been dedicated to the study of different pagan cultures rooted in the past parallel to demonic demonstrations, satanic, luciferists and ancient arcanes
15.-For many Bolivians and Peruvians who we share a common history, the ancestral issues are present in your bands. In your previous band ATMOSFERA FUNEBRE you included a track in Quechua. Are you thinking to also incorporate a pagan track in Quechua in this band, or maybe Andean mythological tracks? How were you with that experience and reception when you played that tracks alive by the bangers?
B. - Well I have studied different cultures and I found links between them for anyone who appreciates the magic that we can find in the Andean cosmovision this can easily the worldview this fact, so far I have not used a dialect in the songs for the moment as the same way that we did with Atmosfera Funebre during the times were we used the Andean magic in their songs against Christian Jewish dogma. In his time was well accepted, by more than enjoyed and savored for those who has heard and spirituality rooted.
16.-Many people doesn´t know of the important support you give to the underground and many bands, even losing money, often or almost always. What would you say to those people who see with envy this? What are the satisfactions did you receive to give too much support? Will you continue supporting the underground scene?
B. – I don´t fucking care the envy of people, it doesn´t help, it has not value and it´s just a shit for me, take into it can only hinder my appreciation of my life and actually I do nothing for those who fill the mouth of a fake illusion and live in a Yankees Nordic scene and fashion mannequins, their voice and their tongues only serve to devise poisonous on the scene of course always trying to get attention that they don´t have in their pathetic life, really doing nothing and being nothing for this, which for someones is our life, paying tribute and being devil worshipers of metal!
I work in favor of the extreme metal, for real devout underground people, I am the voice of Satan, Lucifer in my environment, I have been blessed by the lighting and the excesses of black metal!
I will continue supporting my country to my scene and South America as I have always done without a particular interest!
B. - All of them for my, each of my lyrics written and regurgitated, vomited and sung with real feeling and passion tore my soul in the tables! And all of them left a legacy in different formats that the cult precedes .. I am an avid lover of the works of ... ATMOSFERA FUNEBRE! But I must say that today BAPHOMET THRONE HELL`S invokes inspiration to me in a real and better spiritual life creating for me ties with my immediate environment and providing me the magic that lives into this relentless horde, trying to don´t go away from the reality in which I live, in which I put all this wisdom acquired, widespread and inspiring. As an architect I belong to a society that don´t pigeonhole or discriminates against me for the different ideals of life, philosophy or the way to I live my life. Or better yet, I do not let to they pigeon-holed me in their false morals and worldliness
18.- What is the band working on? What are your next projects?
B. –We had been writing and recording. We released a single with 5 tracks and we will launch the demo that you know to the world and we are entering the studio to record the new songs. Also playing alive and plaguing us of new followers who share this feeling, thirst and hunger for knowledge and infernal lighting, we decided to provide to the world with all our work at the same time.
19.-when will you place a show in Lima? Have you had invitations?
B. - I received invitations to go to your country but we are expecting for confirmations as soon as possible, we hope to be there and share with old friends from the Peruvian scene ..!
20.-What is the final message that you want to leave to the South Americans and worldwide death bangers?
B. – Fuck up everyone!
Let’s expand the black prayer for South America and for the world. Let’s fill up with hatred and black fire our hearts. Lets burn it down the fake doctrines from the weak, their symbols, their churches. Lets destroy all that fake acts of Christian faith, The Cradle of greed and selfishness ... are into it ...!
Time will show up their judgments to those people who acts in honor of his own truth, who is pretty sure to do the right thing should not fear ...! (BHT intro lyrics of el reino de las sombras, single 2011)
CALIGULA:’GRAVEYARD LIVE RITUAL’-5 TRACKS-TAPE 2012-PARAGUAY:
This work is the most raw prove of true sound of the band, because it is a live recording, clear and direct without makeup. Now the 5 tracks I sounded in his true dimension, of simple riffs, sometimes a la BULLDOZER/VENOM, others are mixed with something of HRADCORE/PUNK FINNISH,and combined with the first times of impaled Nazarene, these bands make it without a doubt the sound of this work. Many people will think that this review is somewhat different from the work ' ritual of lust diabolical', Basically is very similar to this work, but to be a work alive, these always gives us the bands without much musical arrangements or half words. The only thing that I dislike of this tape is the few tracks that has 3 tracks sung in perfect sound 80 's, 1 intro and 1 instrumental , then 3 tracks. The sound mixing are not good, but neither is it poor (I hear Worst) it leaves to listen well. Something interesting thing is the fact that the tracks are strongly influenced by a raw sound, pure & crude is mixed with the rough sound of the tracks sung in Spanish it is doing of this mix something very powerful working on tape is very well done as all the work of UNDER RECORDS FROM BOLIVIA, who has been really fantastic for giving us a new piece of SOUTH AMERICAN BLACK METAL ART…………………..7.5/10
ABRAHEL: ‘IMPLACABILIS PROCELLA CUPIDITATIS’-CD 2012-SPAIN.-
Previous to this work I did a review of their EP ‘ BACK FROM THE UNDERWORLD’, Which had a great pleasant impression to me, leaving so clearly the high level of the black metal bands from SPAIN. This work does not do any more to confirm the growth of this band, although of this work includes previous tracks of their EP ‘BACK FROM THE UNDERWORLD’ and only two new tracks were included. And both tracks are showing how the band has grown of the beginning until our days, a growth both in the musical line , professionalism and lyrics… This work has been released by AZERMEDOTH records from MEXICO and it included a MEXICAN tour as supporting to this recording and others countries from South American introducing this work to all black metal bangers, and it had obtained good critics of the specialized media and this zine was not stopping to saying the same of this work.. GREAT!!! ABRAHEL is a band that it leaving their underground path and advances to big steps to be between the great names of the black metal movenments soon. The tracks are well constructed under solid bases, when we speaks about solid bases I mean that the rhythms are complex but very strong that they receive with any easily the rhythm changes without losing force. Sometimes it is difficult to think of comparing bands but ABRAHEL its going to the way left by EMPEROR with its respective own sound. Undoubtedly this album meets to us to a stable band on a way that goes directly to leave a trace inside in the black metal movement. GREAT WORK!!!....................................8.5/10
MUERTE POR MIL CORTES: ‘PROMOTIONAL CD –TAKEN FROM THE LATEST LP’- SPAIN.-
Lately nothing surprised me about the band sounds. Specially if the bands are coming from SPAIN. The bands has taken extremely care in quality of production and music, there’s in all tendencies such as black metal/heavy/doom/thrash/grind and of course extreme death metal, powerful and heavily. Surely the first idea that you’ve in mind when speaks of Spanish band is AVULSED, but in this chance I have another point of view, this band is keeping these brutal riffing but adding more influences of great bands in the riffs construction, that it includes more deeply in technic likely NILE and adding the brutality parts as BRUTAL TRUTH. This is the best side of the work, that surely it is the most interesting fact on this LP. .Another important fact is in the parts of the arrangements in guitar that he has many cool arrangements that makes it appear to NILE and for me it is a very important part in this work that elevates him to a good level. Each track keeps high doses of extremism with the fast drums characteristic in this type of death metal, with guttural vocal without falling into the GORE music, making highly eating all tracks. Very good performance and a great discovery for me to learn how new bands with great future… good work… … … ..7.4 /10
