Satyricon


Teodosije

A i to sto kazete. Ja se samo nadam, posto mnogi muzichari pricaju kada su na turneji pa se vrate pa pisu album pa neka mala pauza, nemaju vremena da nesto puno slusaju noviju muziku nit da istrazuju. Tako da bi voleo da vec kada uzima tu malo vecu pauzu, da malo intezivnije slusa muziku. :D

Mene brine ovo ''a couple of years later'', ko zna kolko ce to da bude

Pa bolje da bude i duže, pa da izbace dobar album, nego da forsiraju, pa izbace loš. Govorim generalno, ne samo za Satyricon.

 

Inače, ja sam jedan od onih koji ne vole ništa posle Rebela (a bogami ni pre Divine), ali to nije zbog toga što sam uber underground bljacker, već zato što jednostavno ne volim takav zvuk. Mislim da se na staro neće vraćati, to ne bi bila promena kakvu najavljuju. Ići će oni u neistraženo, a to je po mom mišljenju indastrijal uticaj.

Norwegian black metallers SATYRICON have issued the following update:

 

"Let's try and bring some clarity to the rumours that have been circulating lately.

 

"Although [SATYRICON's latest album] 'The Age Of Nero'is now a year old, the project is still very much alive to us as we'vebeen working it more or less non-stop for almost three years.

 

"Thelast 12 months since release has been spent relentlessly touring and the fortunate success of the album has taken us to India, Australia,Japan, twice to America, across Europe and around Scandinavia and now we head out on the 'Finale In Black' tour, which will mark the end of the colossal 'The Age Of Nero' project. Once we have done that, we feel the time is right to take a break. A break where we can rest, get some perspective, work on other musical projects and non-musical projects and allow ourselves to figure out SATYRICON's next move. We have some ideas on what we want to do next and one of them is to open a new musical chapter.

 

"It has never been in this bands nature to rest on our laurels and we won't be doing that either. When the time is right, we will start working on exploring new musical territory and only the future can tell what that will turn into. Taking on challenges like that is something SATYRICON never has been afraid of. On the contrary, it is what has made the band grow.

 

"We tried to perfect everything SATYRICON has learnt and experienced musically for the last decade on 'The Age Of Nero' and we feel that we reached the goal we set out to achieve. It is time to pave way for something new. No, we won't return to something old.Forget it! All we know is that regardless of what we end up doing, it will still sound unmistakably like SATYRICON.

 

"We won't tour in the foreseeable future unless it is something so unique that it could be considered an historical event, but we will do one or two select festivals here and there whenever we feel like it. When we return, some of the people surrounding us today might be gone and some might still be with us. We don't know when, we don't know how, but we do know that SATYRICON is still very much alive and this break is something we know we need to do to keep it that way. Until then, see you at 'Finale In Black'!"

SATYRICON Frontman Says He Owns Copy Of BURZUM EP With EURONYMOUS' Blood On It

 

In the latest installment of Roadrunner Records's "Ask the Artist" series, the U.K. branch of the label sat down with vocalist Sigurd "Satyr" Wongraven and drummer Kjetil-Vidar "Frost" Haraldstad of Norwegian black metallers SATYRICON and put the best of fans' questions to the guys. A couple of excerpts from the question-and-answer session follow below.

 

Q: I really like "Roadkill Extravaganza". Will you be releasing another DVD?

 

Frost: Possibly, if we release another DVD, it's going to have a very different format to "Roadkill Extravaganza"— it's not going to be a follow-on to that one. We have thought ofmaking a live DVD. It is something that might happen and at a certainpoint it probably will happen. I cannot really tell how and when it'sgoing to be, but it's going to be different.

 

Q: Ten years ago you released "Rebel Extravaganza", which compared to your latest release differs in sound and style. What do you think SATYRICON will sound like in another ten years?

 

Frost: The good thing is that I cannot really tell! I think one of the greatest assets of SATYRICONis that it's unpredictable. Whenever we start working on an album, wedon't really know where we're going to end up. We might have some goalsthat we want to reach and we might put certain restrictions onourselves, but, basically, we don't really know where we're going toend up before we get far in to the writing process. Then it starts totake shape and it's almost as if the music leads us as much as we leadthe music. At a certain point we realize what kind of an album this isgoing to be and how we can make it the best it can possibly be giventhe resources we have at our disposal. Especially this time when wefeel that we're going to leave the territory where we've been for adecade almost and enter something new, dark, challenging we can end upanywhere. We simply feel that we have a very fine instrument forexpressing ourselves musically. It is almost as exciting for us to seewhere it can take us as for our fans.

 

Q: What does the future hold for SATYRICON?

 

Frost:Wow! That's a big one! In my head now, I can see this vast landscapethat just unfolds. There is something enormous and powerful to it. Ipersonally feel about SATYRICON's future that there issomething pretty grandiose on a certain level and that could beanything. It could grandiose on an artistic level that is perhapssomething is that we ourselves feel or it could imply that the band isreally going far. What I know is that the future holds a lot of work, alot of development and we're going to invest a lot in the next album.That is as far as I can think in terms of future. We always aim to topourselves with each new album. We hold on to that aim. The future holdsgreat things, great music, it holds improvement and development andmuch learning. It holds blood, sweat and tears for sure!

 

Q: I read in an interview that your next record will be radically different from the last one and there will be changes in the SATYRICON camp. What are your ideas on the next album and what will that change be within the band?

 

Satyr:The idea to take a break now to get to do some other things musically,in terms of private life and also to have time to do absolutelynothing! In the past I have done a couple of things. I did a recordwith medieval music in '95 and also did a STORM record around the same time and then I did a small project called BLACK DIAMOND BRIGADE with the guitar player from TURBONEGRO and the bass player from FAITH NO MORE. Then I worked a little bit on the EIBON with Phil Anselmo. When ever I have done these things, coming back to SATYRICONmakes me feel even more inspired and motivated by the fact I have beenaway from it doing something else. It's not really about the grassbeing greener on the other side but it's just sometimes good to stepout of your little bubble and experience other things. It makes youappreciate what's inside of your bubble even more when you do that.Sometimes just to figure out things, whether it is something small likeday to day life or something larger than life like making a piece ofart then it's good to have some peace and quiet, time to think andsettle down. We've been going steady since "Now, Diabolical" and there's been so much activity for the last 18 months with "The Age Of Nero"that it's ridiculous. I think most people don't realize how much we'vetoured. We've played over 170 shows in 365 days. That's not touring alot, that's touring like a dog! I think a part of trying to providesome leadership is to make decisions like this before something goeswrong. Before we lose motivation or inspiration; before we startfighting each other. You've got to say this is enough. If we go furtherthan this we are pushing it so let's just stop right here before we gosomewhere we shouldn't going. SATYRICON is divided into two musical chapters — the '90s with the first three records and then "Rebel Extravaganza" is almost a record that symbolizes our transition, in a way. Then there is the 2000s with "Volcano", "Now, Diabolical" and "The Age Of Nero"— which is a conclusion of our work in the 2000s. It wouldn't make mehappy to continue like this. I'm going to have to find something newand exciting. I'm not afraid of that, it makes me very excited. It'slike the difference between getting a brand new car just like the oneyou had before as opposed to you're going to get a brand new car, youdon't know which one yet but it's going to be a great car. It's reallyexciting in that way because I know we can do this and we're not afraidof it. We're probably going to be doing some things where we're goingto be questioning "Why are we doing this? This is not working" whereinstead of getting disillusioned we have to start from scratch and dothis again. We have done that many times before and you just have tohave faith and belief in your vision for the project. I don't knowexactly what it's going to be but just the fact that we've made thisdecision makes me excited and now I'm getting ideas on where to go.I've started thinking about things in a more detailed way and this willprobably open up for me in six to eight months when it will becomeclear to me.

 

Q: I have a question for Satyr inregards to collecting music and or other memorabilia. I've heard youmention in interviews in that you have a fairly large record collectionand was curious to know if you have any prized and maybe rare piecesthat you are proud to own?

 

Satyr: I have the yellow goat first BATHORYrecord (It was first printed in 1000 vinyl copies, with a yellow goatinstead of a white one) — finally getting that one was significant! VENOM's "Black Metal" with the poster — that's the original. I also have the original BLACK SABBATH "Master Of Reality". I have many like that, the original POSSESSED "Beyond The Gates",which is this gatefold vinyl and turns in to this gigantic upside downcross with this incredible painting and many things like that. Thereare also some things that I'm not necessarily proud of, but it's abizarre record I have. You know the tragic death Euronymous from MAYHEM? He had the record label Deathlike Silence where he released the records of BURZUM. The man that was found guilty of this murder was the BURZUM guy [Varg Vikernes] — whose record Euronymoushad released. After his death, some of his band members were gettingrid of the records the parents didn't want. One of the records theargument related to was a mini-LP called "Aske" which means"ashes." I was looking through the records thinking of buying some andI noticed blood stains on it. I asked, "What's this?" because it was a BURZUM record and seemingly it was in the hallway where this murder started basically. It was a stabbing so it was Euronymous'blood that splattered onto some of the vinyl in the hallway. I thoughtit was so bizarre having the victim's blood on the murderer's record.It's not something I'm proud of owning but it definitely a bizarrepiece. It's a curiosity and I guess no one really thought about thatand for me it wasn't something I that I was going to frame but itdefinitely has a history that is bizarre and so I got that one. It'salways good to have originals, the very first one and those withspecial artwork and all that. If there's a story to it as well, that'sgreat. I don't know if they have conventions in the States like we havein Europe but they're always nice. Anyway, now I collect wines!
