Well ours isn't out just yet we're
still putting the final touches on it, Guitars / drums / and vocals
are finished, so just some bass guitar bits that should be done in
week or so and then off to get mastered! While thats going on i'll
pull out the paint brushes and start up on some cover art
2.Where was it recorded? Is all the
material new?
It was recorded by JJ from the
Eschatonic Records they've picked up a few bands here in Canberra
Australia, all us evil with some wicked tunes in our own way. We play
an old school mixture of thrash and death we like to call ”Beer
Metal” . Its a blend of hard rock / venom / slayer / decide /
priest and heaps of classic metal bands all fermented nicely into the
package you see infront of you!
3.What is the biggest difference
between your last release and the new one?
Basically its been a few years and im
the only one left from that lineup so considering that not a lot has
changed. Hopefully we're getting better at what we do, but I don't
think this release with either upset anyone that liked us before or
endear us with anyone that hated us before. From a production point
of view its a little more advanced and we've taken a little more time
than the last recording. Also with Mike on the bass guitar I've
actually got another song writer on board, which hasn't happened
since the ninties.
4.Are you signed to a label? , If so
which one and how did they help or support the process?
We're sorting that out now. Its looking
good that we may have a few people helping us out. Basically
Eschatonic records has been awesome to us so we'll defs be working
with them and hopefully in conjunction with a few other cool cats
both here and overseas
5.What has been going on with the
band between albums? Did you tour?
Yeah we don't tour as such, we do play
gigs when we get them both locally and up the east coast of
Australia. Its bloody expensive to tour here but if we just duck out
for the weekened we can still keep our day jobs ya know what I mean?
6.Do you have any new members?
Yeah both the drummer (Danny) and Bass
player (Mike) are new and they've definitley added their own stamp
and style to the band! Love those c**ts!
7.Who produced the new album and how
did they effect the album?
As mentioned Above JJ from the
Eshcatonic Record label did it and I think he did a marvellous job,
he knows his gear and more importantly knows how to pull a good sound
out of us. He has great concentration skillz which made sure we
played our best on all the takes.
8.Some like to record naked or in
the dark with candles , Did you have any strange studio
practices?
There was an inhuman amount of beer and
burbon consumed during the recording of this one.... some days we
can't even remember what happened hahah but other than just the usual
hahahh
9.Of course tell us where to pick up
your album and how to learn more about you.
Easiest way will be to visit our
website (http://www.beermetal.com)
or facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/reignofterrorbeermetal)
and we can sort you out from there. We're hoping for a feb release or
sometime around then!
10.What is your plans now that the
new album is out?
Basically promote the shit out of it
and hopefully go ona more extensive tour of Australia than we have
been able to in the past!
