LAWRENCE`S CREATION

01. TELL US ABOUT THE BEGINNING OF LAWRENCE`S CREATION?

It started as just a electronic project that I did by myself while I had free time and a friend of mine heard it and suggested that I do the same with my guitar and turn it into a rock project similar to Vinnie moore, or Michael Angelo Batio did with their instrumental albums. I thought it was a good idea so I did it. Now I have 2 electronic albums and 1 rock album with another rock album on the way with vocals also. It was always just a project that I had on the side by myself that was just me and no one else involved which is also why I called it my creation.

02. HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR SOUND TO SOMEONE WHO HAS NEVER HEARD YOU BEFORE?

I would say that the electronic stuff that I started with would be a cross between techno/dance type of stuff that you might hear on a video game and orchestrated stuff that you might hear on a soundtrack for a movie. The Rock stuff that it has evolved into I would say is similar to stuff written by Vinnie Moore or Jason Becker or someone in the instrumental guitar genre and some stuff to come will be more vocal oriented.


03. HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE THE LYRICAL CONTEST OF THE MUSICS?

The newer stuff is the only stuff with vocals and most of it has a slightly depressing nature but some of the lyrics have a never quit never say die attitude also. So a range of emotion.


04. HOW MANY ALBUMS/CD´S HAVE YOU RELEASED? 

Technically I have 3 out if you count the demo, but there are 2 full lengths. One electronic and the other is rock guitar. I think for the rest of the albums I am going to keep it strictly organic rock albums.

05. WHAT MERCHANDISE DO YOU STILL HAVE AVAILABLE?

I only have CDs available so far. I maybe have posters soon and maybe stickers but for now I think CDs are good enough considering I don’t play out much yet other than open mic once in a while.


06. ARE YOUR SATISFIED WITH THE RESULTS OF LAWRENCE`S CREATION?

So far yes, and I am hearing more and more feedback from people telling me they like what I am doing.


07. TELL US MORE ABOUT THE MUSIC: DROP ZONE. MY FAVORITE.


For drop zone, I was inspired to create an album that was like a guitar hero album ie Yngwie, Joe Satriani, MAB, Steve Vai etc. So I composed 10 songs and released it hoping that I would be able to send it out and be ranked up there with some of my favorite guitar players. It was mainly inspired by music in video games like the song “bad omen” for example that actually has a part in it that is exactly the same music during the first solo as a part in the game… which is why I called it that. Haha… So mainly listening to video game music and bands like dream theater and some shred albums from guitar players like Steve Vai etc.

08. COMMENT ABOUT THE ALBUM: DROP ZONE?


This album is the beginning of the band’s new sound that will stay (I mean real instruments, real band, no electronic stuff) and I consider it to be the first and only album since I am trying to break away from what I was doing before. I did put a lot of time into recording it and had fun coming up with ideas. So far everyone I have shown this album to seemed to like it very much.

09. WHAT ARE SOME INTERESTS THAT YOU HAVE OUTSIDE OF MUSIC?

Music is my main hobby and I love it the most but other hobbies and interests are stuff like bowling, ping pong, going to the beach, casino (once in a while), hanging out with friends and stuff… I also like stargazing and going on boat rides a lot also. That is very fun.


10. ARE YOU WORKING ON ANY NEW MATERIAL? CAN WE EXPECT A NEW RELEASE FROM YOU IN THE NEAR FUTURE?

Yes a new album should be available soon. It still has the flashy shred guitar stuff in it but it isn’t as technical as drop zone. It is slower for the most part and it will have vocals on it.

 Most of the music written Isavar, texts written all the band members.

06. WHAT’S THE MESSAGE BEHIND YOUR LYRICS?

People - the foundation of the universe. Therefore, a source of inspiration - the people, their actions, both good and bad in a global sense.

08. WHAT DO YOU THINK OF RELIGIONS?

Religion - they are not needed, because the ruin of people and therefore the world!

This summer we are planning to record and release their debut full-length album.

14. WHAT´RE YOU FUTURE PLANS?

 It is difficult to think, but in the future I would like to get our music out to more people outside of Ukraine.

01. TELL US ABOUT THE BEGINNING OF SANCTRUM?

In 2008 we released our critically acclaimed debut album "In Harm's Way" (Metalcast Records) in Europe, U.S.A. and Canada, produced by Grammy award winning recording engineer Carl Vikman. The opening track “Dead Inside” got airtime on radio as well as on TV. In the early spring the band went on a tour through Scandinavia with UK’s metalcore maniacs Centurion; and in the fall a similar tour with their Diamond worshipping friends in Icons of Horror. In 2009, due to irreconcilable differences, the band parted ways with its former record label, and made their debut album available for free online. In 2011 SANCTRUM was invited to participate in the "Metallsvenskan" tournament broadcasted on the network “TV4 sport” Later that year one of the original guitarist, Volkan, decided to leave the band due to various reasons. The search for a replacement was neither long nor arduous; the position was almost instantly filled by Alex Tollin. The EP "Autumn" was recorded in may 2012 with producer Teddy Möller at BlueFlame studios and was released digital on all big platforms. The title track also appeared on the compilation “Sicksound - A New Era” (Sickhouse Sound Production HB). 

Come 2013, the writing process for their second full-length album slowly began while still supporting the Autumn EP, including winning the 25th Villa de Bilbao music contest in Spain of 2013. 

In 2014 Sanctrum once again entered the studio to record their sophomore album, entitled “ROT”, in Studio Maskinrummet during September-October 2014 with producer Lawrence Mackrory (F.K.Ü. Darkane). Shortly after the recording session, Sanctrum signed a worldwide record deal with WormHoleDeath records for the distribution of “ROT”. 

 

02. WHAT IS THE FEELING FOR THE CHOICE OF NAME SANCTRUM?

 The name comes from the word “sanctum” but when it was presented to the rest of the band it was misspelled and it became Sanctrum.

 

03. HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR SOUND TO SOMEONE WHO HAS NEVER HEARD YOU BEFORE?

Fast, aggressive metal spiced with some hardcore and topped off with catchy choruses.  

 

 

04. HOW HAS THE FANS RESPONSE BEEN?

Our fans really seem to like our live shows as we are a band that is supposed to be experienced live.

 

05. HOW IS THE ACTUAL LINE UP?

Sanctrums line up is: Irfan Cancar on vocals, Oskar Odelbo on drums, Alex Tollin on guitar, Viktor Arfwedson on guitar and Emil Anter on bass.

 

06. DID YOU HAVE PLAYED MANY GIGS?

We have played a lot of shows, we don’t know how many exactly but a least 120 shows during the years. 

 

07. WHAT  MERCHANDISE DO YOU STILL HAVE AVAILABLE?

We have a couple of different t-shirts and we have our old album but we are working on some new merch and we will have it done until we start the Rot- touring cycle.

 

08. WHAT ARE YOUR INSPIRATIONS FOR THE YOUR MUSICS?

It’s very hard to point out something specific, it’s very different for all the members.  

 

09. TELL US NOW YOUR FAVE BANDS AND ALBUMS?

We listen to a very wide range of music between us. You would be surprised what would be played if you partied with us. Nothing is off limits.

 

10. TELL US MORE ABOUT CD: ROT?

Our new album Rot consist of 10 new songs with high paced and heavy death/thrash riffs, catchy choruses and hardcore in-your-face-attitude. It is our most ambitious record to date. We have everything from the straight in your face fast songs to the more complex and heavier songs on the record. We recorded the album with Lawrence Mackrory (Darkane, F.K.ü) in our hometown of Uppsala and it will be released soon via WormHoleDeath Records worldwide.

 

11. WHAT DOES THE FUTURE HOLD FOR THE OUTSIDE TRUTH?

 We have a lot of things going on right now, which is really exciting! We are planning to shoot a new music video, we are booking shows and we are working on new merch. And of course we are releasing our new album Rot which we can’t wait for you guys to hear!

 

12. ANY LAST COMMENTS?

Thank you for your support! Pick up our new album Rot and spread the word about Sanctrum!

01. TELL US ABOUT THE BEGINNING OF VONULFSREICH?

In 2012 I got this urge to form a new, working band. I was already pretty sure to pick Fogg and Lempo as fellow musicians since both of them are long-time friends of mine and also, we were already rehearsing three-piece in 2009 and it worked out pretty well. My main band at that time was going nowhere and I felt this raging desire to DO things. And after that, do some more things.

The first twin-releases we did with two different line-ups to record with separate types of recording methods and personalities. Northern Shamanism (recorded with Fogg) was darker but more atmospheric side of V.Ü.R. Sepulchral Silence (recorded with Lempo) instead was heavier and highly punk-influenced.

02. HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR SOUND TO SOMEONE WHO HAS NEVER HEARD YOU BEFORE?

Obscure and noisy metal/punk that is highly against any musical standards or taking a musical direction depending on what's ”in” at the moment. Most likely the music will sound unpleasant.

03. HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE THE LYRICAL CONTEST OF THE MUSICS?

It's a journey to the darker side of spirituality. It's struggling man's poetry. My lyrics usually involve nature mystics, solitude, darkness, anger and several otherwordly experiences.

04. TELL US MORE ABOUT CD: SPELL OF THUNDER?

Not a CD yet. We are working on the release as we speak. It came out pretty cool I think. I'm not usually this pleased of a new release but this one is quite ok. I would of course change something at this point but fuck it. There's no use to make a perfect record. What on earth would we do next? The core line-up on Spell Of Thunder is me and Fogg only. Lempo needed to take a break from everything and so he went travelling. But he said it was okay to go for it while he's away. However we have some guest vocals and guest solos on the record, and even Lempo appeared to the bünker studio while we were finishing the recordings so he managed to do some additional vocals as well. All in all, we had six people to perform on Spell Of Thunder. That's quite a bunch of people for a cranky loner band.

05. WHERE DID THE NAME OF THE ALBUM COME FROM AND HOW DOES IT RELATLE TO THE ILLUSTRATION ON THE ALBUM COVER?

Just like everytime, the title just came out of nowhere rushing to my head. The name's obviously a small nod towards the first Tarot album. The name fits the album's soundscape very well, I think. About the illustration, I just happened to come across with it in the new year's night when I was listening to the rehearsal demo versions of these songs. It was just something that immediately gave face to our new songs. There was no turning back. It was a perfect choice. It definitely reflects the album's overall atmosphere.

06. WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO USE THIS WORD: VONULFSREICH AS A BAND NAME?

It's from a vision of ”Vonülf” I had in 2012 before starting a new band. I think a unique name would do more justice to our music instead of using english or finnish names. It's too late anyway so all the best names are already taken.

07. WHAT MERCHANDISE DO YOU STILL HAVE AVAILABLE?

Only records. Even they are slowly running out.

08. TELL US NOW YOUR FAVE BANDS AND ALBUMS?

Too many. I have always enjoyed music as music instead of style. I grew up with U2, Beatles and Bad Vugum stuff (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) then later got into pop, rock, electro etc. and ”eventually” found metal around the age of 12 which gave my life quite a new meaning. When it comes to metal, I have stopped following most of the bands years ago. I still have pretty much the same old faves which I probably never grow tired with. If you're interested in listing of some sort, here's my tip of the endless iceberg:

- Burzum: Filosofem

Filosofem or bus money? Filosofem and 25km walk home? The kid made a right decision. Out of this world. Still absolutely mesmerizing. Literally a timeless classic. For me this was a revelation of minimalistic and hypnotic music. I guess that's why I enjoy kraut, ”nowave” and ambient these days.

- Mayhem Deathcrush & De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas 

On DMDS modern black metal was born and killed. Deathcrush was my first Mayhem record. I wonder if my Weird Manheim cover version is still somewhere.

- CMX: Kolmikärki

The first album from this long-time finnish group. Before taking more progressive and experimental pop direction, Kolmikärki is still pretty much dealing with hardcore punk (by no means it's typical hardcore though) with esoteric lyrics. Lots of influences from shamanism, theosophy, literature and occult. I was lucky enough to find this album again a couple of years ago. Used to bang my head to this a lot as a teenager. Very powerful and vital album.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQ2xyy0A0tY

- Darkthrone: A Blaze In The Northern Sky

Unique and timeless. Those death metal leads make it even weirder. An unexpected d-beat on Kathaarian Life Code killed me.

- Bathory: The Return......

Usually when I praise this album to people, surprisingly many would say they always skipped or are unfamiliar with that particular album for some reason. Very underrated and 10000000% black metal.

Besides metal, I enjoy bands like Joy Division, Terveet Kädet (Suomi 82 hardcore anyone?), CAN, KTMK/Radiopuhelimet, Vangelis, Magma, Frank Zappa, Dead Can Dance, M.A Numminen, Psychoplasma, Suicide, The Stooges, Kauko Röyhkä, Birthday Party, Leo Bugariloves, The Doors etc.etc.etc.etc...

09. WHAT ARE SOME INTEREESTS THAT YOU HAVE OUTSIDE OF MUSIC?

Art and living/dying. No ”hobbies” really.

10. WHAT´S YOUR OPINION ABOUT: SATANISM, OCULTISM AND SHAMANISM?

They might be a perfect gateway to the unseen dimension of existence and perhaps taking you closer to the truth. Any individual ideology connecting to the roots of man and higher knowledge can be seen as good thing as long as you stick to keep it individual. I write most of my lyrics concerning these subjects.

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

Seeing how the underground scene in Finland is going is one of the last things I'm interested of. There must be some bands worth checking out but I simply got better things to do.

12. WHAT´RE YOUR FUTURE PLANS?

Future is uncertain. I have never seen tomorrow. At least we got some more releases coming around if things work out the way they're supposed to. At this point it's not time for writing or recording but releasing instead. We've been recording a lot of different kind of music within the past year. Let's see how people handle that.

13. THANKS FOR THE SUPPORT. ANY LAST COMMENTS?

Thanks for your support and cheers to our brazilian listeners! Early brazilian death/thrash murders!

01. HOW ALL STARTED?

Post mortal actually came about unexpectedly. it started with tim, brian, jake and i as a a band with jake and brian doing the vocals. tim left for awhile for his own reasons, but left on terms with the rest of the band, which brings us back to him being in the band again. we were trying out vocalists to take some of the load off of the guitars, since post mortal is a rather technical job for them already. ed played with jake and i many years before and he came up to a practice to check us out. ended up liking it so much that he decided to try out for us and we gladly welcomed him back with open arms.

02.  WHAT IS THE FEELING FOR THE CHOICE OF NAME POST MORTAL POSSESSION?

 

We decided on the name post mortal possession through ed`s suggestion. we were actually having a hard time deciding as a whole on any one name. post mortal possession just stuck out. ed`s original idea was post mortem possession, but we felt that mortal instead of mortem was a little more catering to what we were trying to embody. we feel that the name is catchy yet lets the listener know exactly what they are getting them self into before they even listen to it.

03. HOW`S THE ACTUAL LINE UP?

 

The actual line up is great! it is exactly the same line up as listed in the cd and on our web page. we all get along and respect each other. everybody`s opinion is acknowledged and accounted for. if someone doesn`t like a part, we change it.

04. COMMENT ABOUT YOUR INFLUENCES?

 

Our influences are spread out among the musical spectrum. we all grew up with slayer, cannibal corpse, pantera, sepultura, fear factory, and we also have influences that differ from each other like folk, bluegrass, classical, electronic, progressive, acoustic and jazz.

05. WHAT’S THE MESSAGE BEHIND YOUR LYRICS?

I always try to compare death metal to a horror movie. we are no different. we touch base on real life events, such as historical wars, events, serial killers etc. we have some fictional horror movie style writing and our over all message is to be aggressive, technical and show that death metal CAN be easy on the ears ha ha.

06. WHAT DO YOU THINK OF RELIGIONS?

We don`t think much of religion in any facet. we do mention lucifer and satan, but again, we are trying to create a scary environment and a horror style atmosphere. no members of the band hold any strong opinion over religion. it is what it is.

07. HOW MANY CD`S HAVE YOU RELEASED? 

 

Only a couple hundred cds have been pressed so far. the ep has only been out since november of 2014. we are not signed yet, and we are so new that we have no need to press more than a hundred at a time.

08. TELL US MORE ABOUT RELEASE EP: POSSESSING ENTITY?

 

The ep was pretty much us wanting to release something for the fans to have but we didnt want to go all out for our first release. we have 9 finished songs, and are working on three or four more at the moment. we take our time, and we feel confident that the ep is good enough to keep the fan satisfied for the time being until we release more material. 

09. DID YOU HAVE PLAYED MANY GIGS?

 

We have not played that many gigs. last year we played twenty and this year so far we have around twelve. we are starting to branch out of state but we are older, some of us have kids and are married or about to be. we all have daytime jobs and have responsibility at the moment so its not as easy for us to just drop everything at this time and start touring everywhere. but in due time.....

10. WHAT MERCHANDISE DO YOU STILL HAVE AVAILABLE?

 

We have a plain black shirt with just the logo on it, and then we also have a black shirt with the logo and the ep cover on it. we are currently working on a long sleeve t shirt and in the future will have hoodies, hats, patches etc.

11. HOW`S U.S UNDERGROUND SCENE?

 

The u.s. underground metal scene is pretty diverse. ive been told that the eurpoe scene is much better than the u.s. scene.

12. WHAT´S THE DEATH METAL FOR YOU? 

Whats death metal to me? well, being the drummer in this band, its challenging. its fun. its bringing the best musicianship out of me. its pushing the envelope and pushing the limits of musical artistry. its badass and my favorite music hands down!!!!

 

13. WHAT DOES THE FUTURE HOLD FOR THE POST MORTAL POSSESSION BAND?

Hopefully many things!!! we are treating this band as a business and not just a hobby. this is what we want to do for a living and we know how much work its going to take. we are ready and cant wait to see the world doing it!!!

14.  THANKS FOR THE SUPPORT. ANY LAST COMMENTS?

We just want to say thank you for the oppurtunity to speak on behalf of post mortal possession.
