I think the entire professional career in all its fifteen years has been one single learning process as far as songwriting, production and self presentation goes. I think there has been a constant development from one stage to the next whereas Death Or Glory was the only exception...

New York No Wave. DNA live on this day at the Savoy Tivoli, San Francisco.
Dutch grind, MY MINDS MINE recorded material for their side of the split with UNHOLY GRAVE on this day in 2000. The songs were mixed and mastered a few weeks later. The split EP was released by the bands own Rot Away Record. This song ["Why Don't You...
Nattestid...' (simply meaning 'Night time') is but a small representation of my inner feelings, thoughts and emotions; fractions of my aggression, frustration, yearnings and melancholy. All expressed metaphorically through self-created old Norwegian lyrics scenery, accompanied by my own interpretation of extreme metal. The material on this album was...
...Decomposed is a kind of death metal band. The only one in London I think? We may not be? Who knows! We play a weird kind of doom/death with very strange influences from Voivod to Dream Theatre to Confessor and everything!...No band directly influences out music but every...
SONIC YOUTH played live on this day in 1985 during their first west coast tour. The concert - the Gila Monster Jamboree - was the last organised by Stuart Swezey's Desolation Center at their "all new remote [Mojave] desert location". Swezey released Desolation Center, a documentary about these...
I can not hide that "Sleep of the Angels" has a lot of enemies. The album sold a lot still, but we had lost our reputation as a band. It was an era that I was passing back then and I think that every artist has this right...
Yes, you either like it or definitely not like it. Amok is a release that forces you to a definite opinion, and usually they are from both extremes! To me the negative reaction is just as flattering as the positive. Taneli Jarva / Sentenced interview, Word of Mouth...
Only a few weeks after the release of Sounds of Decay in late 1997 a quite different KATATONIA emerged on this day in 1998 with the release of Saw You Drown. The limited EP served as an introduction to the style KATATONIA shifted to on their third album,...
...it's like an account of the early days of the band, of the formation of the band. We had a very isolated upbringing; all we knew was the music we had been into in 1990/1991 when Jason and I played in our last band, Salem Orchid. So we...
Masami Akita recorded the very first MERZBOW sounds on this day in 1979. OM Electrique is the earliest MERZBOW recording but remained unreleased until 2000 when it was included as part of the Merzbox collection. I started playing around 1972, in a studio, with schoolmates from my junior...
Mexican cyber death metal! HARDWARE's only major release, the Souls Vortex EP, was recorded on this day in 1991 at PM Studios.Raw, obscure sound; some songs with prominent keyboard giving it a feeling close to what NOCTURNUS were doing around the same time. Not yer usual case of...
We weren't revolutionary. We were just perverts with a captive audience!

THE STALIN released their debut album on this day in 1981.
It shows how things were operating at the time. We weren't really into marketing or anything, we were just doing it. Even though [the album release] was the night before Christmas, it didn't matter! It was still about having fun and doing whatever we wanted to do. The...
We were extremely worried when Piggy was ill with cancer, it gave us a big shock to find that something like that could just come to the surface like that. We've become mote health conscious, we've grown closer together, personally and musically, and now after this record, which...
At that time, Fall of Because was the entire opposite of all the speed stuff happening. We'd do gigs with Napalm Death and Extreme Noise Terror. When we would play, Paul and I would face Justin with our backs to the crowd and play for ourselves. And everybody...
JOY DIVISION ("up until the recording date of this E.P. we were known as WARSAW") recorded their first EP for £400 at Pennine Sound Studios, Oldham on this day in 1977. I’ve got a little book full of lyrics and I just fit something in. I have a...
With MINOTAURI, the idea is more riff-based the hard way, ya know? Also, my vocals are nothing nice or beautiful. I like hard sounds and I think there`s no point to sound radio-friendly or nice when playing Doom Metal. A mix of HELLHAMMER, CELTIC FROST, DEATH ROW (PENTAGRAM),...
