Deutsche VersionInterview mit To Separate The Flesh From The Bones (10.08.2004)
HH: Hi, the fotos on your website, do they show you how you look like at the moment. Or do they show you how you want to look like in the future?
Rot: We will all look like that one day.
HH: For Those About To Rot is a grinding and devastating piece of music. Aren't you afraid that people will look like you after listening to the CD?
Rot: I haven’t noticed any mutations in my friends so far.
HH: What's the reason for For Those About To Rot? Why didn't you record an album full of greatest lovesongs for the hearts of people?
Rot: We wanted to do something fast, fun and furious. If you look for love songs you have to look somewhere else.
HH: Which role did his infernal majesty play during the songwriting and recording process?
Rot: None.
HH: You recorded ten songs with a playtime of approximately ten minutes. If you keep this on a full length album you could tell the tales of a thousand lakes within 20 minutes. Or can we expect longer song on future releases?
Rot: I think on the album there are a few songs that are over two minutes.
HH: When can we expect the full length release?
Rot: Later this year, we just finnished the recordings. We recorded 25 new songs and two covers.
HH: What do you do on a black winter day apart from creating music to separate the flesh from the bones?
Rot: TSTFFTB music is usually created very instantly, this time we had five songs ready before the studio and we did there rest there. On a black winter day we try to sleep as long as we can.
HH: Do you meet people during the day or do you stay far from the sun?
Rot: It depends on where the people are.
HH: Is it possible to play concerts without muscles, just with bones?
Rot: Bones are very percussive, it becomes more of a tribal show.
HH: Can we expect a tour?
Rot: Maybe later, we have to wait for the album first.
HH: Which songs should be played on your funeral? Or better which song was played on your funeral?
Rot: M.A.Numminen - Dägä, dägä or anything by Bakteria.
