Interview w/ From Ashes Rise


Beberapa waktu lalu saya sempat menulis review tentang rilisan terbaru dari From Ashes Rise yang berjudul Live Hell. Dan baru beberapa hari yang lalu saya memiliki waktu untuk meng-interview salah satu personalnya, Brad Boathright. Melalui e-mail saya hanya menanyakan beberapa hal yang saya ingin tahu dan hal baru di rilisan terbaru mereka. Salah satu band D-beat yang rilisannya sering saya konsumsi setelah His Hero Is Gone dan Tragedy.




Me: What new things that distinguish "Live Hell" with previous releases such as "Concrete and still" and "Nightmare"?
Brad: Well, of course it's live, which I think captures any band in their most primal, energetic form. It's also the only recording so far with Derek on bass, who is still in the band.
 
Me: I've read your lyrics, it represent about reality and problems of society. Is this the way how you spreading your ideas with playing music?
Brad: I'd say it's more a way of channeling our frustrations and observations.
 
Me: Why do you interested to spread your idea?
Brad: Anyone is going to want to communicate how they feel. We have no intention of spreading any dogma or ideas as much as we do singing about what lies at the core of what we feel grating on us everyday. Our  lyrics have always been observations that deconstruct, as opposed to laying out a philosophy.

Me:  How do you describe your sound? it's like Political Hardcore Punk.
Brad: Metal tinged hardcore punk
 
Me: Mention any bands that influences you in musicality.
Brad: Black sabbath, neurosis, metallics, corrosion of conformity, the list is endless. 

Me: Tell me about your scene in Portland, Oregon
Brad: Very diverse, lots of transplants and very tight. It's a very small town really, with a pretty large scene.
