NEW ALBUM INTERVIEW : SWARMAGEDDON

 

1.Thanks for taking the time to talk to The Grinder! You have a new album out, Tell us about it!

That’s right! Our new album “Inhuman” is out since October 3rd. 

This is an 8 tracks album of Progressive/Melodic Death Metal but this is more different from what you can expect from this label. There is no barrier in our writing process. You can find Death, Slam, Electro, Clean singing and black influence mixed in a way that is still coherent. That makes us sound different.

2.Where was it recorded? Is all the material new?

It was recorded at the Psyrus Studio, in the east of France by Damien Dausch. We have worked with him for our previous EP and we liked his work.

All the songs are new and have been written after the EP was recorded in 2018.

3.What is the biggest difference between your last release and the new one?

Our previous release was in a Spacial SF universe, with aliens et co. The new one takes place in a post-apocalyptic background and is about the consequences of what humans are doing right now.

Musically, the main difference is the presence of clean vocals and the solos of our new guitarist Morgan that are awesome. Globally, the writing is more wild and intuitive than previously. We wanted those songs to be more live friendly. 

4.Are you signed to a label? , If so which one and how did they help or support the process?

No, at this time we are not. We would like it if one came with a good deal. 

5.What has been going on with the band between albums? Did you tour?

We performed some concerts to promote the EP, writing the news song for the album. We have also been searching for a new bassist and a new guitarist. And this is something hard to find in France in this style of music. 

6.Do you have any new members?

Yes, that’s right.

Ludovic the bass player joined the band a few times after the release of the EP, and Morgan joined the band a few days before the studio record of the Album. They are both very talented musicians, and we love the way they are implicated in the band right now. 

7.Who produced the new album and how did they affect the album?

This album is an auto production so.. nobody is telling us what to do, and at this time, it’s a good thing. We want to be able to do what we want unless there is someone very talented in it to help us make our tracks better. 

8.Some like to record naked or in the dark with candles, Did you have any strange studio practices?

Absolutely no strange practice for us! Sorry! No weird story to tell!

9.Of course tell us where to pick up your album and how to learn more about you.

We made our own website to be able to sell our album and our merch.

10.What are your plans now that the new album is out?

As touring and performing concerts will be hard with the COVID-19, we are aiming to produce content for the web. The writing of the next album has already started too. We have to find different things to promote our music.
