Septic Christ

SEPTIC CHRIST INTERVIEW WITH JX NOTHING - OCT 15, 2012 1. Is there a German thrash metal tradition that you feel that you are a part of? Never really thought about this but I think we are too openminded to feel us belonging to any tradition. All members are totally fans of music itself either its Metal or Jazz or even Pop. So I think that we wont fit to any kind of tradition at all. 2 Is it necessary to be anti-Christian to be a metal band? I think this is up to everbodys own choice. For my own opinion I prefer to think for myself. No gods no Masters. I also think that the anti Christian attitude which is very common in the metal scene comes more from a rebellious spirit that drives the Metalheads out there. So this is my only necessarity on metal I have… it has to be rebellious and outstanding of the standards of our society. 3. How much have you looked to the past to get inspired? Honestly not at all… we all have our musical backgrounds and paid our dues in making music for a long time. So we only write the songs we would enjoy to hear from other bands. Our love for the 80ies Thrash possibly comes from the fact the we all spent our youth in these times and enjoy this sound the most. It’s fucking fun to thrash ‘em all…!!!!! 4. What thrash bands, past or present, epitomize all that is thrash metal? Woah that’s hard and maybe impossible to answer… but I’ll give my best let’s do it this way … I will name you some bands and the things I respect from the most. Anthrax – for their coolness to do some totally different things Megadeth – the first four records are a musical revolution for me. Brilliant and cathy at all Demolition Hammer – one of the most brutal Bands ever… no prisoners no Mercy just musical violence Voivod – their Songs are not Metal this is art… never heard any of those chords before Nuclear Assault – dito to Anthrax but more speed and power. Very good lyrics with a mind on the world Sacred Reich - Great Songs which carry a great attitude. I love it when someone has something to say even if i don't share the opinion Watchtower - unbeliveable musical skills You see my musical education is a classic but when we talk about new bands i would possibly pick up Warbringer -who epitomize most of the trademarks above.... but ask me tomorrow and you'll get complete new list....sorry! 5. Is there a thrash metal sound that everybody look for? How do you do to achieve your sound? Any special tricks? Sorry i know i am boring but there are no tricks at all. We only try to get our livesound on tape/harddisk.... no triggers, a cool sounding room, good equipment and some microphones.

Renaissance Through Devastation Album was recorded, mixed and mastered at Hertz Studio, Poland, by Slawek and Wojtek Wieslawski (Vader, Behemoth, Decapitated). Artwork by Pablo The Elephant. "... Manifest Of Refusal is certainly a hell of a lot better than a large handful of death acts you've seen reviewed on here over the past little while. It's thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish, but will most likely lack the significant personality required to impress many people who aren't already death metal fanatics..." http://www.metalstorm.net The band was formed in 1999 in the following line-up: Jacques - vocals, Demian - bass, Leonid - guitars, keyboards, Kirill - guitars, Vladimir - drums. Debut album “Jerk” was released early 2001 by Russian label Fono. The album laid down the foundation for original Stalwart-style, combining massive thrashcore rhythmic groove with atmospheric fragments and acoustic inserts. In summer 2002 Stalwart started to record the second album. Drum tracks were recorded in Astia Studio, Finland, with Anssi Kippo (Children Of Bodom, To/Die/For, Norther). The work demonstrated the significant progress by virtue of unusual consortium of angry riffs and symphonic keyboards. “Dive To Nowhere” was released October 2003 by MetalAgen/Soyz Music. Some of zines characterized it as “one of the best Russian metal releases 2003”, and the 8,5-minute title track became a trademark of band for a long time. For the next album famous Hertz Studio, Poland was booked with producers Slawek and Wojtek Wieslawski (Vader, Decapitated, Hate). This album became a debut for new guitar player Antuan. “Abyss Ahead” was released May 2008 on CD-Maximum, showed the more powerful and solid work in comparison with the previous one. Soon after original vocalist and drummer left the band. Nevertheless the newcomers Oleg Sobolevsky (vocals) and Tim Ismag (drums) raised the band to the new scale, importing more drive and energy. New Stalwart sound, much more hot, fast and aggressive, externalized itself on the next CD “Annihilation Begins”, also recorded at Hertz Studio, and released December 2009 by Metalism Records. Currently the band finished its 5th album “Manifest Of Refusal”, recorded with new drummer Alex. The CD is will be released worldwide by Canadian label PRC Music May 22th 2012.
