What can I say about Industrial Holocaust? This band has the ability to take me back 15 years. It reminds me of being in my grandparent's house, staring at my shitty stereo speakers in disbelief as I was discovering bands like Sore Throat, Anal Cunt, Extreme Smoke for the first time. The intensity and brutality of their music is so overwhelming that it is nearly comical. Industrial Holocaust lays waste to everything and I truly admire this band.
I am working on a book that will cover some of my favorite Brazilian grindcore and noisecore bands, and I look forward to interviewing these guys even more for the book. If you call yourself a grindcore fan in 2014, and have not checked this band out you are seriously fucking up. Hats off to Industrial Holocaust for turning this negative old man into a giddy, smiling teenager for just a few minutes. Cheers guys and keep the noisecore alive!
1) Industrial Holocaust launched an amazing EP in 2012, with the title "The Holocaust continues". In my opinion, is an instant classic of grind, which brings me back memories of Sore throat, Extreme Smoike 57 and Napalm Death, at the same moment. Can you give me a history of Industrial Holocaust? Which bands influenced you to start a band grindcore ? How would you describe your sound?
1-Thank you very much for your words, we are happy for our sound remember these classic bands. We started playing with the MORBIDEATH in 1989, I (guitar), Rivelino (battery) and Jamil (low and vocal), a kind of deathgrindnoise at the beginning of band. At the end of 1991, we form the INDUSTRIAL HOLOCAUST and the only change was the entry of Edu in low leaving the Jamil only on vocals. With this training we recorded in 1992 the 7 ep split with the NOISE.
In 1994 Jamil and Edu came out, and Tertius took the low. Write several materials with this training.In 2012, after recording the 7 ep THE HOLOCAUST WHIPPED , Tertius was definitely living in Canada.
In 2013 entering the bassist Edoom Nuclear Winter (ex-Nuclear Frost) and the guitarist Sergio (Confusion). But the Edoom is solving some personal problems the current training is Cassiano(i) low vocal, Rivelino (battery and vocal) and Sergio (guitar and vocal).
We were very influenced by the first two discs of NAPALM DEATH, FEAR OF GOD, E. N. T. , SORE THROAT , DOOM, NECROBUTCHER, DISCHARGE, SOUND POLLUTION, AGATHOCLES , PATARENI, HELLISH NOISE , EXTERMINIO BRUTAL , NUCTEMERON (Brazil) etc. between so many bands that we liked and that motivated us to touch grindnoisecore. It is very difficult to define, because we like and we have several influences in our sound and we try to always sounds so original and own. I think that we are a band of noisecore with much influence of H. C. and Crustpunk.
2) Can you tell me about the polical climate in the city where do you come from? How does it affect you personally and how it affects the song writing process for the band?
2-In Sao Paulo, the largest city in Brazil, it reflects very well the social inequality in the country. We live in a democracy of the rich, i.e. rich ruling for the rich, we have very serious problems, such as the violence that is generated by social chasm between rich and poor, education, health and transport are neglected in favor of the private sector. There are no policies to reduce the cars on the streets and encourage the use of bike paths and bike, much on the contrary who runs this country are the multinational companies and car manufacturers. There is very little rail transport and has a dictatorship of oil that pushes you to buy car. Here it is all highway rotten and evil flagged. It is a true dictatorship of capital.As we are a libertarian band, protest and anticapitalista, our city and our country unfortunately is an infinite source of inspiration.
3) What does Brazilian grindcore mean to you?
3- It is an expression of hatred and indignation to everything that is wrong in the world. The man does not have a limit to destroy, the profit is in first place. The capitalism this ending with the planet, we need an urgent need for a new mode of production. The noise is the cry of protest against all this.
4) How is the scene in your city?
4-There are many concerts here of all the styles of the underground. It is a scene very good, but we have a connection with our great friends on the inside. There is a resistance to keep alive the Noisecore and the Underground. We are always finding and when possible doing shows together with old friends: NOISE, CONFUSION, ACADEMIC WORMS , NOISE AGAINST THE SYSTEM , PRIMITIVE NOISE, BIXERA, REVOLTING NOISE, ROT, NUCLEAR FROST etc.
5) What are some of your favorite memories of being in this band so far, and what can we expect from you in the near future?
5- Many things have already happened. I am since 1989 ringing, many concerts with bands of great friends, but the recording of the first split 7 ep UN with our brethren of the NOISE, the show that we did at the festival of Limeira in 1992 with NOISE, EXTERMINIO BRUTAL, G. O. P. , PUTRID VOMITS, DE DISCORDIA H. C. , the two gigs that were recorded and who left tapes Noise core compilation I and II were just too much.
For the future, we want to continue recording sounds new and touching live in all the places that is possible and keep the noisecore alive.
6) What albums of Brazilian bands influenced you to want to make music? Who are some bands of Brazilian grind that you think may have been overlooked over the years ?
6-We like many Brazilian bands and there are albums that without a doubt have influenced us to want to fit a band, as SARCOFAGO(IMRI), HOLOCAUST (FIELD OF EXTERMINIO), DRY EYE, TAKEN POSSESSOR (TOXIN DIFFUSION), BRIGADE OF ODIO, GENOCIDE(EP),'s SWOON ATTACK LUNATIC etc. Without doubt are bands that deserveattention by that contributed by Grindnoise in Brazil. The release of the album of NECROBUTCHER, for example, was a well deserved recognition. NUCTEMERON its DT Industrial Pollution that came on cd is a demo.. I think that the MAYHEM DECAY CUDGEL is a band that deserved more attention throughout his dedication to Noisecore.
7) What do you think about the World Cup coming to Brazil?
7-Look I have nothing against the football as sports practice, moreover, is very good and healthy, but this modern football is a capitalist slag, is something depressing and disgusting. We detest all this. The world Cup is a dump. We want all selections if fodam!!! Hate flags, nationalism. and borders. We are internationalists, without a homeland and without boss!!!!!!Thank you for the support friend, and hugs!
