Deathillusion Interview


1. Can you tell us a little bit about the band for those that have never heard of you before?
We are some kind of black metal band of southern Spain, not in the way of a traditional black metal band regarding our music but in the meaning of the idea behind it.
It could maybe be described as a strong ritualistic content materialized in just the kind of music needed to interpret our beliefs, no more and no less.

2. How would you describe your musical sound?
Something lost between dark black metal melodies and catchy rock riffs.

3. Your lyrics cover a lot of Luciferian, Occult and Left Hand path themes, can you tell us a little bit more about your interest in these topics?
The whole concept behind the band is to use all what we do, from the music to the image to connect to higher states of consciousness, it is more like a profound personal experience for us than something made for others to understand, but of course the lyrics are the more direct way to share this experience with others interested in the same themes. So it’s more a matter of convictions than just lyrical themes.

4. What is the meaning and inspiration behind the bands name?
Well the name just represents the two main topics of our ideals, on the one hand DEATH as the end of all nature and beginning of next forms of being and on the other ILLUSION as the way all cosmic existence that surrounds us blinds us from the true chaotic aspects of the universe.

5. According to the Metal Archives page the band split up for awhile, what was the cause of the break up and the decision to reform?
The causes of the break were just personal differences between members and geographic impossibility to continue in that way, there was never a real break up just a search for new members.

6. What are some of the best shows that the band has played so far and how would you describe your stage performance?
We have played with other Spanish top acts like AVULSED and NOKTEM for example.
Our stage performance is, as I described above, one more way to be what we are, Inciense, altars and much symbology in combination of our music and dark ambiences makes our performance the powerfull it is. We lately had released a live video that shows it pretty good.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oolOyvMHA04

7. Do you have any touring or show plans for the future?
Yes, we are planning a tour on national level and looking forward to expand it to Europe as soon as possible.

8. Currently you are unsigned, are you looking for a label or received any interest?
Well, at the moment we are working towards an upcoming album, once finished it will be released properly.

9. On a worldwide level how has the feedback been to your music by fans of extreme metal?
On national level it seems to work pretty well, people enjoy our performances and show interest to our Ep and our merchandise, and of course social networks help a lot to be heard at other countries, but once again we work more for people interested in our way of thinking than our actual music.

10. What direction do you see your music heading into on future releases?
The compositions are getting darker and darker and more focused on the ambiences and ritualistic passages.

11. What are some bands or musical styles that have influenced your music and also what are you listening to nowadays?
Of course the link between us and bands like dissection is a fact. In the beginning our mainly influence was the Reinkaos LP of this band, and also the more extreme sounds of Watain and the rock essence of The Devils Blood have finally lead us more and more to a personal unique sound.

12.Outside of music what are some of your interests?
Of course in every band every member has different interests in this case irrelevant for our music, we do what we do out of conviction.

13. Any final words or thoughts before we wrap up this interview?
Thank you very much for the interview, may it be a way for us to get to those who can appreciate our work the way it is meant.
Hail Azerate!!

Charlie from Extra Life, Andrew from Castevet, plus machines.

2.How would you describe your musical sound?
Heavy.

3.What are some of the lyrical topics and subjects the band explores with the music?
Cutting, draining, burning.


4.Do you have any touring or show plans for the future?
Yeah but in a selective way. We go where our money is green.

5.Currently you are signed to Last Things Records, how did you get in contact with this label and how would you describe the support they have given you so far?
The 7-inch is coming out in November on Last Things, which is my own label. It's not a big business enterprise. It's basically a self-release. Next year we have a full album coming out on a very legitimate label, but we can't announce those details yet.

6.On a worldwide level how has the feedback been to your recordings by fans of underground music?
The 7-inch isn't even out yet so no one has heard it.

7.What is going on with the other musical projects these days?
Seaven Teares, Period, and orchestra music.
Castevet. Improvised music. Solo guitar records.

8.What direction do you see your music heading into on future releases?
Who knows. We're still working on recording the album. The 7-inch isn't even out yet.

9.What are some bands or musical styles that have influenced your music and also what are you listening to nowadays?
Influences are too many to count here. On my turntable right now is Wovenhand.
Currently, I'm listening to a lot of Milton Babbitt, Uncreation's Dawn, and Genesis.

10.Outside of music what are some of your interests?
Little else. I used to read a ton. Nowadays, not so much. I'll probably have another heavy reading phase.
Distance.

  "Blood  On  My  Kin"  begins  with  some  dark  and  evil  sounding  synths  before  the  guitar  riffs  and  drums  kick  in  which  leads  up  to  some  death  metal  growls  along  with   some  powerful  bass  guitars  and  blast  beats  and  faster  riffing  and  then  the  song  starts  switching  back  and  forth  between  slow  and  fast  parts  as  well  as  adding  in  some  melodic  parts.

  "Shadows  Are  Astray"  begins  with  some  heavy  and  dark  sounding guitar  riffs  before  the  drums  and  keyboards  start  kicking  in  and   then  the  music  starts  getting  a  little  bit  faster  along  with  some  screams  and  growls  before  switching  back  and forth  between  slow  and  fast  parts  as  well  as  adding  some  melody  into  the  music  and  towards  the  end  there  is  a  brief  use  of  melodic  guitar  leads.

  "Dreams  Of  Death"  begins  with  some  soft  acoustic  guitar  which  utilizes  some  finger  picking  before the  heavy  guitar  riffs,  drums  and  growls  make  their  way  into  the  song  along  with  some  dark  sounding  melodies  and  then  the  music  starts  getting  a lot  faster  with  some  blast  beats  before  slowing  down  again.

  "Orgy  In  Flesh"  begins  with  some  heavy  guitar  riffs  and  drums  and  a  few  seconds  later  the  growls  start kicking  in  before  gong  into  a  faster direction  along  with  some  blast  beats  and  then  switching  back  and  forth  between  slow  and  fast  parts  as  well  as  adding  in  a  brief  use  of  clean  singing  female  vocals  as  well  as  some  keyboards.

  "End  Of  Life"  begins  with  some  heavy  guitar  riffs  before  the  growls  and  blast  beats  kick  in  as  well  as  switching  back  and  forth  between  mid  paced  and  fast  parts  and  towards  the  end  the  bass  guitars  start  sounding  more  powerful  for  a  few  seconds.

  "Bells  Of  Miser"  begins  with  some  heavy  guitar  riffs  and  drums  before  the  melodic  guitar  leads  start  coming  in  and  out  of  the  song  as  well  as  some  growls  before  getting  fast  and  adding  in  some  blast  beats  and  then  the  music  slows  down  and  adds  in  some  melodic  guitar  riffing  before  switching  back  and  forth  between  slow  and  fast  parts.

  "Inhuman  Dissection  Of  Souls"  begins  with  some  heavy  guitar  riffs  and  drums  before  slowing  down  and  adding  in  some  melody  and  growls  and  then  switching  back  and  forth  between  slow  and  fast  parts  along  with  some  blast  beats  and  screams.

  "The  Aspiration"  begins  with  some  heavy  guitar  riffs,  drums  and  growls  before  getting  fast,  primitive  and  adding  in  some  blast  beats  and  then  the  song  starts  switching  back  and  forth  between  slow  and  fast  parts  as  well  as  adding  some  melody  in  certain  sections.  

  "Until  Death  Tears  Up  Apart" begins  with  some  acoustic  guitars,  bass  and  drums  before  the  heavy  and  melodic  guitar  riffs  kick  in  along  with  some  black  metal  screams  and  keyboards  and  after  awhile t here  is  a  brief  use  of  spoken  word  parts.

  "Apocalyptic  Armageddon"  begins  with  growls  and  heavy  guitar  riffs  along  with  some  drums  and  you  can  hear  some  melody  in  the  guitar  riffing  and  after  awhile  black  metal  screams  start  coming  into the  song  and  close  to  the  end  there  is  a  brief  use  of  melodic  guitar  leads  and  solos  being  utilized  along  with  some  blast  beats.

  "Seeds  Of  Evil"  begins  with  some  melodic  guitar  riffs  and  drums  before  the melodic  guitar  leads  and  blast  beats  make  their  way  into  the  song  which  leads  to  some  death  metal  growls  and  black  metal  screams  and  then  the  song  starts  switching  back  and  forth  between  slow  and  fast  parts  along  with  some  guitar  solos.

  "Everlasting  Bloodshed"  begins  with  some  heavy  and  melodic  guitar  riffs  and  blast  beats  which  leads  up  to some  screams  and  growls  and  towards  the  end  guitar  solos  and  leads  are  added  into  the  song.  

  Song  lyrics  cover  dark  darkness  and  evil  themes,  while  the  production  has  a  very  strong,  powerful,  heavy  and  primitive  sound  to  it.

  In  my  opinion  Centinex  where  a  great  band  at  both  traditional  Swedish  death  metal  and  melodic  black/death  metal  band  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  these  musical  genre,  you  should  check out  this  album>  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Blood  On  My  Kin"  "Bells  Of  Miser"  "Apocalyptic  Armageddon"  and  "Everlasting  Bloodshed".  RECOMMENDED  BUY.
