Interview by Chairman Wow (Marshall)
When did you guys get started?
We started in 2010. Since then recorded three albums, one of them re-released in China (We Are Not The Same), played over 350 shows, including big festivals like Metalfest in Czech Republic, Powerfest in Poland or Midi/Strawberry in China. We had the pleasure to share stage with Motorhead, Judas Priest, Megadeth, Tarja Turunen, Saxon and many more.
What is the music scene like in your hometown?
We are based in Warsaw which is the capital of Poland so the music scene is very, very diversified and rich in various bands and solo artists. The Metal scene is very strong, especially if we’re talking about heavy, power, stoner or death metal.
What is the best and worst show you’ve ever played?
There were two best shows with no doubt – the one with Motorhead and the one with Judas Priest. Amazing experiences not only to play with but also to get to know those legends. Sadly, Lemmy passed away. He was a hero. The worst show? I think it was when we played some years ago before Primal Fear and had no time for soundcheck. We sounded like shit and were very upset for this very reason.
What have you heard about rock music in China?
We’ve been to China 4 times already and heard a lot of bands. There is this classic band Tang Dynasty. Great one! But we noticed you have a lot of new metal stuff around and you like experiments in music. I think there is a lot to look forward about music scene in China. Young people love energy, rock brings energy and you have millions of young people 🙂
What should people in China know about the music scene in Poland?
That Poland is not only Chopin! We have lots of interesting bands. You may have heard of Behemot or Vader, but we do have a lot more. I think there is also a place for Chinese bands in Poland. This fact is proven by the regular visits of Chinese bands in Poland, that one of your bands has been playing our country for 2 or 3 years – Nine Treasures.
How much can you drink?
Depends. We Poles used to drink a lot and there is this opinion that normal rules of drinking do not apply to us and Russians. I personally can drink less and less – I am not 20 anymore, but 32 already 🙂 But on tour… you better be careful, especially if you are a singer. Drinking and partying all night can kill your voice 🙂
