Hello again scumfucks, It's a great honor to interview Count Von Emoslayer himself, Great respect for this band for having such a raw and punk-ish sound. Here's the Speedböozer interview.
How is the scene in your hometown?
The scene here really fuckin' sucks, man. It's either the new emo/deathcore/scream/breakdown garbage or just a buncha Pantera wannabes. We're from the desolate South though. We have bands we get along with here that play really similar styles of music, but no Metal Punk bands.
How did you meet each other, and how has the line-up changed since then?
I met Göatrider when he was filling for a drummer during a recording session in an old band I was in. When things inevitably fell apart with that project, I decided to form Speedböozer and he's the first person I called. He's a fantastic drummer. Bass players have been a revolving door of
friends just trying to fill in for us.
What is your definition of Metal Punk?
Metal Punk is raw, aggravated, pissed off fuckin' noise. It should combine the raw attitude and aesthetic of Punk with the speed and attack of Metal. I grew up listening to both Punk and Metal bands and I really hate how divided it is among certain Metalheads or Punks. It's two separate roads that lead to the same destination, so it seemed natural to pursue that musically.
How is the new album going, how did you record it and what can we expect?
The new album is going great. We're all finished as of now. I'm just waiting for EBM to get back to me about receiving the master CD I sent them. We recorded the drums with an old mixer at Göatrider's house. I went to go see a friend that has a small studio to lay down the guitars and vocals and I recorded the bass guitar at my house. I'm really happy with it overall. It's definitely going to be raw, sick, and fast. I'm very confident that our few (but extremely dedicated) fans will love it.
Are there any interesting stories you would like to share?
(slaying emo kids for example)
This one time at a show, this kid was doing that hardcore dancing shit, and I went up to him and started pushing him. He came at me really weird; like he fell on his knees and tried to buckle mine together or something, so I picked his ass up and body slammed him. haha we always try to raise hell as much as we can at shows we go to or play. Our fans feel the same. We love moshing, breaking shit, spraying beer everywhere, etc.
What other bands do you recommend listening to?
Definitely check out Vingador, Bonehunter, Iron Fist, Whipstriker, Bleeding Twats, Nemesis (Charlotte Thrash), Atomic Roar, Children of Technology... all really fucking great bands, man. A million hails to them! And always listen to the classics: Motörhead, Venom, Warfare, Tank, Razor... this is mandatory!!!
