01. CAN YOU TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE BAND FOR THOSE THAT HAVE NEVER HEARD OF YOU BEFORE?

Neldöreth was formed in 2004 by myself (Oz Bloodcurse) and Brad Feist. We had been together in a local symphonic black metal band called Dark Symphony, but that wasn't doing anything worth a shit, so we decided to form something more to our suiting and left to form a Satanic Black Metal band together. I am the only original member left and have since released three full length albums and one EP. 

02. CAN YOU GIVE US AN UPDATE ON WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THE BAND SINCE THE RECORDING AND RELEASE OF THE NEW ALBUM?

The album came out in 2013. Since then we've done a few US tours to promote the album and some festival dates throughout the States. We just inked a deal with Pagan Pride Records to release our material in the States. We are now finishing up the writing of Saints of Blasphemy II: Communion of the Abhorrent and hope to begin recording the album in the Fall. Then in May we're doing a short week long tour in the States with two other up and coming black metal bands and plan to do a full month tour in Fall 2015 to promote the new record.

03. HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR MUSICAL SOUND?

That's a really hard question for me to answer. We have a great mix of a lot of sounds. Black metal, death metal, doom, some thrash. We have a decent mix.

04. WHAT IS THE MEANING BEHIND THE BAND NAME?

Neldoreth was a forest that was part of the kingdom of Doriath in J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Silmarillion", although the band's lyrics are not based on Tolkien works. I think we've given the name our own meaning, because when people hear the name they don't think of Lord of the Rings, but they think of us.

05. HOW IS THE ACTUAL LINE UP?

Myself (Oz Bloodcurse) on vocals. Loki Syx on guitars, Ixitichitl (from the band Manticore) on bass, and Vehemence on drums. Although when we tour we use hired guys as some of our guys cannot tour often due to commitments to their own bands and projects.

06. WHO WRITES THE MUSIC AND LYRICS?

For the new album Loki is writing all the music and I've always written all the lyrics.

07. WHAT MERCHANDISE DO YOU STILL HAVE AVAILABLE?

Saints of Blasphemy I CDs and we have a few Devil Tarot Card t-shirts for sale also. Fans can message us on Facebook (www.facebook.com/neldoreth666) to order.

08. COMMENT ABOUT ¨THE SAINTS OF BLASPHEMY - I: BAPTIZED IN BLASPHEMY ( FULL-LENGTH) ?

Baptized in Blasphemy is the first part of a trilogy. Based on the Saints of Blasphemy, who were all fallen angels who followed Lucifer. This first part tells of their descent onto earth to bring about the end of Christianity. It's the final album to feature longtime songwritter Darrell Creel, who left the band in mid 2012. It also features legandary Demonic Christ frontwoman, Dana Duffey on the song "Abomination Proclaimed Through Heresy".

09. WHAT´S THE SATANISM FOR YOU?

I really do not like to discuss my Satanism in interviews, as I feel I cannot fully explain my beliefs in a short answer, but to give you a basic idea...I am a Theistic Satanist...I am a Devil Worshiper....I do black magick rituals and everything the band does on album or live is a ritual and a opus to our Master Satan.

10. AS YOU SEE THE UNDERGROUND SCENE ON YOUR COUNTRY?

The black metal underground in the US, has it's good points and bad points. There is a lot of good bands and very close and loyal friendships, but there is also a lot of shit talking and bullshit with some...but that happens in every scene.

11. TELL US NOW YOUR FAVE BANDS AND ALBUNS?

Some of my favorite bands would be Angelcorpse, Dissection, Deiphago, Watain, Demonic Christ, Ptahil, Behexen, Beherit, Candlemass, Running Wild, Impiety, Incantation, Vital Remains.

12. WHAT´RE YOU FUTURE PLANS?

To finish up the new album and tour for it. We hope to visit Europe and South America also very soon!
