1.
Bestial fucking hails Moises!!! For those who do not know much about
your band, please give us a brief summary of the past and what your
musical influences were from the start.
Infernal
greetings my friend
Hell
Torment is a band from Peru south America it formed in December 2006
of Total fucking death, thrash Metal , have a demo tape called "I
Invoke Thee" a full length by Crush Until Madness Records, 2 Ep
vinyl by Iron Bonehead Records and a split in format tape by Devil
Blood Records From France a split format CD with Abigail from Japon
and Adokshiny and a MCD Called "Cursed Nazarene" 2013
Hell Torment this formed by a only single person which recorded all
the instruments and voices, and
major influences are Venom,
Celtic Frost, Destruction, Sodom, Kreator, Sarcofago, Sepultura Old,
Vulcano and many bands of the decade of the 80s and early 90s.
2. Being from Peru,
can you tell us more about the underground scene over there? I know
some killer hordes like RECRUCIFY, HADEZ, ANAL VOMIT, BESTIAL
POSSESSION, etc. Which other bands would you recommend?
There are very good bands from my country brother some with many years of
formed, and many concerts in the scene underground of my country as
Anal Vomit which has played in many countries in South America,
the underground scene in my country is very small but very strong!
There are also some important labels and too zines only I
hope that the underground scene in my country can grow
only time will tell.
I
can tell you about a new band that I formed currently in June 2013
called "Impaled Christ" from total fucking war Metal total
destruction the first week of July 2013 will release a promotional
demo of two tracks and we are working to release in late July a demo
tape with 5 tracks.
3. The music from
HELL TORMENT is primitive and bestial. What opted you to play in this
vein as opposed to having a polished sound like many modern bands?
What is it about the primitive hell noise that gets you fired up?
The
influences that I have always liked is the sound primitive and
bestial I do not like the polished sound it sucks although it should
be noted that in the different releases of Hell Torment I
was able to combine different musical rhythms but I never leave of
have a sound raw, this is why I hate some bands, by have a sound as
polished but each band chooses its future. but
the second album Hell Torment will be a complete madness will return
to sound dirty and sick as my new project Impaled Christ band.
4. As far as I
know, you play all the instruments; is this a difficult process? Why
not collaborate with other musicians … or is the vision of HELL
TORMENT too personal to share its ideas?
Exactly
my friend I play all the instruments and voices, and as you say it is
a really difficult process takes
a long time and sometimes becomes
stressful but when you have the final result is very rewarding, in my
country is very difficult to find a good drummer or guitar
I
always played guitar but
as I could not find a drummer I
had to learn to play this instrument my last band was “Eternam”
death metal great band but disintegrated in late 2005 Hell Torment
is a very personal band but it should be noted that anyhow this year
we will be playing live and I'll meet musicians only for
presentations.
5. Let’s go back
to your debut album that was unleashed upon this rotting world in
2008 … What are your feelings now regarding this devil seed and
what was the response like at the time? How did you end up sealing a
pact with CRUSH UNTIL MADNESS? Any idea whether the label is still
spreading its propaganda or not?
The
first album brought me a great satisfaction my friend At That time
was very difficult for me because I was learning to play drums and
that's why the tracks are simple but with a lot of energy proposing
Total chaos, now I feel satisfied with the first production was a
very good time in Hell Torment and the response of people was very
good, I met Marie Horval, from Crush Until Madness recrods by a
friend who communicated with her and chatted sent him the demo tape
she likes and she became interested in producing the first album at
present the label does not exist so I have understood, but
hopefully soon may arise from
the ashes.
6. A lot of your
lyrics are written in English, but a lot of other South American
bands seem to feel more at ease expressing themselves in their native
tongue … Why did you opt to write mostly in English?
The
songs are written in English because I can sing better, in Spanish I
did not feel very good when I sing and also because many people in
the abroad could know what one this expressing.
7. The cover for
“Opening the Gates of Hell” was rather simplistic (just like the
music), with no artwork – just the logo and title in red … I
think it was the perfect decision since it pretty much sums up what
the band is all about; straight-forward, no frills Black/Death that
is the musical equivalent of Christ being raped in his own blood…Your
thoughts?
Exact
brother, the cover was just the logo, I wanted to express that music
was something simple but direct to the bones all
the lyrics about the worship to Satan, lust, and
perversion clear and direct.
8. Moises, which
releases or bands have you been particularly fond of listening to
lately? There are many killer bands present in the underground today,
maybe there are a few bands who have captured your attention in the
last few years?
There
are many killer bands, stunning in the underground as Necroblood
from France, Ouroboros from Canada, and also bands like Sadomator,
Black Witchery, Morbosidad, Obeisance, Deiphago and
many more.
9. The following is
the not a question I use regularly, yet I notice that you hold your
six string axe in almost every picture I’ve seen of you, so perhaps
you could describe some of the equipment you jam with …
Always
play the guitar from the decade of the 80... I have a guitar
GrassRoots, and a washburn series Chicago I too have a small rehearsal
room where I have Marshall head, Carlsbro head, cabinets Marshall
1960 for the Guitar and Gallien Krueger head of bass and a Pearl drum kit and some equipment more from recording.
10. The moniker
HELL TORMENT is fairly ‘to-the-point’ and therefore it should be
obvious what can be expected lyrically. What motivated you to settle
with this name? How does it link to the message that you convey with
your music?
Initially
I sought an appropriate name for my band, but I search a name that
expresses what I think ideologically, was
hard to find a name but at last I found and Hell Torment expresses,
what I think: Total hatred for Christians by spread something that
does not exist in my concept that is the belief in a god called
Christ, about Christ who died and rose again this is a big lie, and
in my lyrics speak about the lies of a god that does not exist! Fuck
off all Christians poor wretches.
And
basing on this way of thinking is that I think to put the name of
Hell Torment but also tried some different concepts of my life.
11. What is your
stance on bands who wear spikes, bullets-belts and leather, but seem
to apply a “fun” image to their music? Does this go hand in hand?
Or do you think humour can not be brought in context with extreme
metal?
Each
band does the best he sees fit, if they feel they must use spikes,
bullets-belts I think it's okay, I have 41 years and I grew up
looking the zines the classic positions of the bands primarily as
Venom a great band of total worship of which I am a total fan, but
the spikes, bullets-belts is the position of music that is Total War
the final holocaust, with a sound raw, rotten of torment for all
Christians!
12. What’s next
for HELL TORMENT?
In the first week of July 2013 will be released a production called Hell
Terror which contains 9 tracks 2 tracks exclusively for this
production and the others tracks of this productions are of the 2
ep released by Iron Bonehead and 1 Track of a split tape release by
the Devil blood productions from France.
Right
now I'm working on the news songs from Hell Torment for
the second album which will be a raw sound and complete chaos
something like my other band that I have been called Impaled Christ.
13. Thanks a lot
for your time, Moises. I hope this interview will in some way help
spread your message of hate across this world … Is there anything
else you would like to add?
Thanks
to you my friend for the support and tell all the maniacs of Hell
Torment Total
gratitude for the support and tell that Christ is a total lie and fuck off all the Christians, and the only thing real in this world is
death.
