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!

01. HOW ALL STARTED?

Everything began in 2010 when two participants of group wanted to create the new project, one was fond earlier the punk of fate, another played in HUNNGARD group (pagan death metal) earlier. I never knew these dudes, and they began without me. Everything was very long. The first concert was at a festival Rock Parel in Mariupol in 2011. The collective worked nine months over the program. Mariupol quite strange city in the relation threw scenes. Festivals here take place very seldom on holidays, as for metal of festivals, it is very big rarity. And to act there is nobody. Very big number of beginning groups, here they simply teem, and how many groups gather and break up every year without having started even rehearsing normally and seriously to work over the program. Well I think that it is in each city. Collectives gather in this city very seldom. Especially I threw orientations. At us no, I didn't throw portals, not forums on which musicians communicate and look for new participants of groups. And therefore if to gather somehow the project, or there will be any concert, this quite big sobity.

02. WHAT´SYOUR INFLUENCES?

 I am engaged in it already enough much. This year there will be 8 years as for the first time took a guitar. I always wanted to play something eksrimalny and melodious that will be always interesting to the listener. Certainly there is a lot of influences. Naturally the known heavy-metal is the basis, still those pioneers such as the uncle Ingvi, by Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and similar old and all... who plays and it is still possible. But this project any was a little not usual in that plan that everyone began to determine by the that it was. That is there are many opinions about it.Rather pagan subjects which were offered by the bass player were the basis Khoroyar group. As for music, about everyone year it changed, changed and finished, that is it was formed quite long time, and different people.

03. HOW DO YOU DEFINE KHOROYAR MUSIC?

 Music of Khoroyar group is any not a clear substitute, there are various styles, everything was composed on pieces, and to tell heavy to tell on more precisely what it is similar. So the majority and thinks today. But certainly in what framework it is similar to melodious deadly metal, but with some new knocks, more the modernist style that - whether sounds than those in the 90th years when played. Personally I thought over it very much how to improve a sound, in respect of notes and in respect of sounding. Over it we took a steam bath much. Reached before that identical sensors on guitars simply bought from us there were seymor duncan blackouts AHB-1 set, but one guitar sounded more in a low timbre, and the second rather in more average, at the correct panorama and sounding distance, even playing not on a lamp we could build up quite interesting mix. We never worked with a tube sound, it wasn't simple such opportunity. And we could achieve quite good sounding with those which we had.

04. HOW IS THE ACTUAL LINE UP?

 If to speak about the facts, actually it is quite big problem. Groups also represent a big problem. Both financial, and organizational, temporary. On it too many forces are necessary, many don't maintain and throw simply.That big return, aspiration, desire to create is necessary to be engaged in it.

05. DID YOU HAVE PLAYED MANY GIGS?

 I will tell you that this group it is possible to tell even still made nothing. You can see our concerts here. The group acted with the Ukrainian local teams, and also European same but it is possible above on level teams. Separately I could tell the impressions about experience of game on one scene with group Unearthly (black-death, Brazil).Here some concerts which to all of us were remembered.

06.WHAT MERCHANDISE DO YOU STILL HAVE AVAILABLE?

 I think who many beginning collectives will agree with me that merchandise and similar production can be sold at concerts, and it usually only and rescues young collectives as now all are known that to count on something very hard, in any case to speak about stars at which now at all very big problems with concerts, with finance and an opupayemost of this musical business. At present there is available no merchandise.

07. TELL US MORE ABOUT KHOROYAR - NEW HERO EP?

 This my work first by a demo. We didn't begin to sell it on a label and didn't plan rather as it there was far not a master record. We didn't expect to do it on sale. The matter is that the public very much demanded, it wanted to hear us in a MP3 and as though and all the others were not against. We wrote down this work in one house studio at one companion at the beginning of November. It was very heavy as time in Ukraine not warm, heating in that room didn't suffice, it was cold. But there was to have a rest no time. There was a problem with sound extraction, at many, and also a problem with a vocal which many time corresponded and as on me it doesn't sound ideally, so actually the vocalist thinks. Sounds so-so.So actually think all from us. But there were serious problems with finance, time, the bass player was ill then. 

To it was hard vchery to come and accumulate party. So all moved very long and hard. The sound was created on one American sound card, honestly I don't remember on what, but sounded it enough not badly. About texts I would like to add that texts about actually about Russia, old times, and volume who were these people - Slavs. It were very fine people. Texts were not author's and one our friend who lived for couple one hundred kilometers from us to the north. Our bass player remembered this author on the to last groups.The sound was removed long enough. As for personally me that I made everything that from me was required. But then then I understood what mistakes we made, but already was late. Everything went a lump.In this work you can hear the electronic drums, the emulated guitars, some reverberation, but as a whole certainly at that time it was pleasant to me, but there was one nuance, a sound to me it seems it turned out plastic, not real a little, and very chilly everything sounds in that plan that something doesn't suffice, probably keyboard or something else... I can't precisely tell.But as I understood further... This work appeared not so heavy considering that its fund at that time was in 2012 of only $200. It certainly is ridiculous, but we as though and weren't able to afford the bigger.As a whole, I think, this work was pleasant to much, and local and in other countries on the world.

08. HOW`S UKRAINE UNDERGROUND SCENE?

 The scene of heavy metal of Ukraine simply teems with similar collectives. Ukrainian metal the scene totals huge number of groups of different substyles, but its level very low. As a whole, to Ukraine there come different foreign guests. They here in a priority. On them enough not badly go almost always. I will tell some names which personally are pleasant to me. In similar style play in Ukraine the following groups: Sol Inside, Dimicandum, INFINITE TALES, BALFOR, FLESHGORE (brutal metal), MORTON (heavy/power metal), JINJER and similar, is a lot of them that all won't go in in the head. Yes and no sense to list as a sound of the Ukrainian groups very budgetary, and it is far not the professional. On fingers it is possible to list those who has a professional sound.In Ukraine there is a lot of musicians. Rather as well as in the Scandinavian countries, only sound all differently.

But as though there wasn't, Ukraine remains quite attractive scene for all stars even the world scale sometimes come to the capital of Kiev. As will be will show time further. But it seems to me we in this plan are still very far from ideality. We have no normal professional threw studios. It is the fact. That is to create a normal product it is necessary to go abroad to Europe or Scandinavia for receiving the corresponding sound. All gangs are written at studios which have total fund simply ridiculous and scanty. In total on a minimum. In Russia just the same situation. And even worse in some far places.

09. WHAT´RE YOU FUTURE PLANS?

 Future plans... ? ? ) Well rather this desire to understand that in Ukraine will be that that it won't be a shame show to the world can. Actually, plans are. But there was no wish to disclose them. And everything can exchange at any time. At this stage our country endures serious difficulties. All of you know from world news that at us here occurs, but all are optimistic. All dream that it once will pass and never more than the such will repeat. Now very few people play here.

10.THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE SUPPORT. PLEASE, ANY LAST COMMENTS?

 All many thanks! I am always glad to communicate on this subject. Who yet wasn't everything at us I advise to visit our country a bit later. There is much that interesting. Come on international a rock festival it is worth it there to visit.
