Le Scrawl (01.11.18)

Le Scrawl is a very unusual and extraordinary band. I met these guys at last OEF, their show was so intense, bright and amazing. Obviously I asked them about this small talk. Due to some delays we finished this interview only today, that why a few questions are not so actual, but that is not too critical. So boys and girls, read, share and enjoy!

Greetings Simon! How are you doing? Tired after long road trip back home?

Fine, thanks! It was great to be on tour with Le Scrawl again - and really an inspiration.

Power It Up (21.06.18)

Hello Tom and Fabio! How are you guys? You're probably busy preparing packages for shipping, am I right?)

Hello Alex, Thank you for your interest in POWER IT UP. This is where the preparations for the festival season begin. We are also busy finishing our upcoming releases.

I'm very interested in the story of Power it Up, please tell us how it all started ...

VHS (28.05.15)

Hi Mike! How are you? Did you prepare yourself for this Horror movie mega fan?

Mike:  Hey! I am doing good! I'm definitely prepared for the interview!

The New Batch is finally out. Congrats brother, this album is truly rad, especially for horror fans, haha. So how do you feel about it? Do you have feedback from the fans?

Tolerance (26.04.18)

Hello Mr Urho! how are you doing man? Hope all fine on your end, and the beers are cold...

Hi Alexander!! Thanks for getting in touch! It's really nice to have this chance to chat. I suppose I'm doing okay for the most part. Lately I have been way too stressed out though, and in some ways my life (or at least the way I experience it) has been quite unstable. But l can't really complain either, as at the moment I have a job which I really like, I'm surrounded by really wonderful people and I have a ton of creative projects that are very important to me, so I’m trying to stay positive you know!

Noxa (20.04.18)

Hello guys! First of all I want to congratulate you on the new album. You finally made it to your 5th full length release.

Hello yeaa thanks bro How long did you work on Propaganda?


Around 4 month.

Slave To The Grind (21.03.18)

Hi Doug! Finally we managed to have this small talk. Thank you so much for that, well how are you man? Whats new? This is a big week for us! We are launching our trailer and poster today as well as announcing our World Premiere at the Calgary Underground Film Festival on April 21st. Expect daily festival appearance announcements throughout the rest of the week. - Let`s begin from the start, when did you have the idea of creating a Grind documentary visit your head? Why is this genre so special to you? When I was finishing up Never Enough, my last documentary, I knew I wanted to tackle a subject that had never been done before. Never Enough was on compulsive collectors, and since all I was doing was spending my spare money on rare grindcore records, it seemed fitting. I appreciate all styles of music, though music on the fringe of society has always interested me. It doesn’t get much more fringe than grindcore. The intensity of grindcore is unparalleled and I really felt like the world needed to learn about what excites me most.

Krupskaya (09.02.18)

Hi brothers! How are you guys? Hope that you packed a few fresh pair of pants for your small journey

Alex: Absolutely! The washing machine is on, the set is sounding tight – really looking forward to it.

Riley: Besides a short stint across the UK with my old band some twelve years ago, I’ve never actually been on tour, so it’s a bit of a strange mix between excitement and nerves at the moment.

Matt: To be honest, there's been a few details of the tour that have caused a bit more stress than usual. But now everything’s sorted and it’s just around the corner, I can't wait to start... fresh pants have been the least of our worries!

Ed: None of my pants are fresh.

Matt: I spoke too soon.

Ensepulcher (18.01.18)

Today, we bring you an absolutely sick death metal band from Fresno, California, by the name of Ensepulcher. This project features Adam Camara and Johnny Valles from the grindcore band Fiend and James Torres from Haggus and Antagonizer. I have been extremely excited about this band since Adam and Johnny first announced it. Their debut demo “No Sanctity in Death” immediately got me hooked on the filth they had to offer. Though many new bands use the HM2 pedal, Swedish death metal sound, I feel that those groups rely too much on the tone itself and haven’t really caught my attention in the way Ensepulcher has. These guys don’t just throw together a tone setup in hopes of maintaining a certain image, but instead bring a creative and crushing element to it all. These factors really make Ensepulcher such an enticing band for me. I hear the influence they get from Swedish bands such as Nirvana 2002, God Macabre and Carnage, and a total DIY punk attitude to add into the mix. I can’t wait to hear more from them and to see them live in person as much as possible. I recently asked Adam and Johnny to answer some interview questions in order to learn more about what they are doing and what they’re looking to accomplish. Given everything they have to say, I am very excited and look forward to more from them. Enjoy!

Afgrund (04.11.17)

Hi Enrico! How are you doing today man? Hope you're in the right mood, because right now we will talk about some really serious things.

E: Hello guys! I'm alright, some things are going great and some others suck... and i'm pretty sure you want to talk about those that suck... I'll try to be as accurate as possible.

Cystoblastosis (24.08.17)

Hi, boys and girls! How're you doing? Having some rest after tiresome daily activities?)

Hi! We are great, but I have too much work so it's almost impossible to relax, in any case, thanks for asking!

Olga, how did this happen that you become acquainted with goregrind? All those intestines, low raw sound and pitched ferocious vocals... Woman in goregrind band is a pretty rare thing, you know))

Oh yes, I know. Medical theme attracted me from the childhood and I dreamed of being a doctor, but later I changed the decision and began to study in another sphere. Most likely this influenced the formation my tastes in the future and my interest has not diminished. And so, altogether I have always been attracted to extreme styles of music.

Sublime Cadaveric Decomposition (07.08.17)

Hi, Seb! How're you doing? Probably looking forward to finally release your new album?)

Hi Alex. Yes, we are working on the latest details of the T-shirts, and so far, everything is ready for the official release in September. It's good to have the time to finalize everything to be just perfect. We recorded the album almost a year ago, but the mixing and mastering were completed only at the end of December 2016. The graphics were also finished in December 2016, so the last 6 months were devoted solely to finalize the deal with the label, and achieve the layouts and the final adjustments according to the release schedule of Animate Records. I think this is the album whose release schedule is the best anticipated, and everything goes exactly as expected. It will be really great to be able to have all the merchandising available from September : I can’t wait!

Cystgurgle (15.08.17)

Hey Polwach, thanks for taking the time out of your schedule to do this interview with Good Guys Go Grind.

What’s up Shawn/GGGG. My pleasures man. Go for it.

Some of us are curious, what was it exactly that peaked your interest about drumming?

Well, I started listening to rock and extreme music when I was like 13-14 and the drums attracted me the most. From that point I started to learn drumming. I remembered when I first listened to Diabolis Interium by Dark Funeral and was amazed on how fast that shit was.

RØDEL Records (31.07.17)

Hi, sir Keule! How are you doing? Probably drinking dark beer with tons of candies, I suppose?)

Thank you - I`m fine. Ha , no dark beer... usually I don`t drink beer that often. Only in holidays or at special events. I prefer to drink water, coffee, fruitjuice...

Chepang (28.07.17)

Greetings boys! Hope that all is well on your side. Can you introduce your band for our readers?

Cheers to you for having us. My name is Kshitiz Moktan AKA Captain Bhudey and I play guitars in a band called Chepang. We play a form of music called IMMIGRINDCORE, its basically grindcore but with the pain , love and intensity of the great Kublai Khan’s immigrant warriors worldwide. Its basically nothing but a loose form of freestyle music over double blast beats for double the love...

Did you start this band in your motherland or did you start it on the shores of the USA? Also can you give us a short story of Chepang?

The Arson Project (09.06.17)

Hello, friend. Did you already manage to recover after that hell tour? Having some cold beer as a medicine perhaps?)

Hey man! I am recovered, but I am restless, and you don't recover from that. So I try to do something creative every day, edit photos, videos, play guitar or something else that calm my nerves. After almost seven weeks of touring getting used to have people around you, see bands, meet people, playing shows and party you'll get restless when you come home. And yeah, cold beer with some friends is good medicine. 

To Live A Lie Records (03.06.17)

Hi, Will! How're you doing? Let's start with the question that was bugging me for a long time: how do you manage to keep your thick beard in perfect shape? Does it help with managing label?) Oddly it isn't much to keep in shape, it is more keeping it out of things.. car doors, guitar straps, bike gears. To the second question, it makes most of the business decisions. Quite obvious question, but still, how TLAL started? Was your decision about starting it instant and impulsive, or you thought about every detail before starting it? I feel like everyone questions anything that can lose them money. Putting out records 10/11 years ago was way cheaper so it was less money but still frightening. TLAL started from making some friends in Florida who convinced me to split release a record for me and Avi from Magrudergrind talked up the split as a good way to expand the distro I ran. The record did well. I did a Rhino Charge EP, it did well. Did a Magrudergrind CD, it did well... then it honestly was a lot more work from there. Early days were serendipitous and easy. Later years were a lot of nose to the grindstone.

Archagathus (05.01.17)

Hi, Dan! How're you doing? How's Archagathus today?

Oh I'm alright, just spent a lazy day around my apartment with my cat. Not very exciting. Hopefully one of the 3 other Archagathus members got up to something more interesting!

I noticed that you sound more gory on your recent releases, for example, you use more pitch shifted vocals. What can you say about these changes?

Paucities (02.01.17)

Hi Mike. I want to interview you as Paucities's guitarist. I discovered your band only in 2013 from Agathocles's interview. Tell about create band, why did you decide use this name for band? Tell about changed of line-up and what happened to vocalist? 

Adam Jennings and I formed the band sometime in the summer of 2009. I found the word "Paucities" in the dictionary. It means scarcity or rarity. Since there were not a whole bunch of bands around at the time going for the "mince" sound, I thought it was appropriate. I also like the sound of the word (and it ends with an "ee's" type sound like Agathocles!) Regarding lineup changes, Adam Jennings is a busy guy, involved with many other musical projects and personal endeavors, so he left the band to focus on them. Our original drummer Omar left for pretty much the same reason.

Overviolence (22.11.16)

Hola amigos! How are you doing brothers? Could you introduce yourself to our readers please?

Hey! We are three easy going long time friends with an appetite for fast music. Esse-git/vox, Henke-vox/bass, Erik-drums. We have been playing together as Overviolence since early 2013, we like hanging out together and we like fast tunes. The band is the ultimate social club!
