It began in the summer of 2006 although me and Raquel used to talk about it before. The idea was to create songs by dressing them up in different forms of power and extremity, this wasn't an open invitation to make as much noise as possible but to take the songs into a different audio dimension, so with the foundations of our musical histories and the focus of songs, LIQUID GRAVEYARD was born.
Both me and Adrian live in Spain and Raquel. I knew he was the man for the job. We found his contact and asked him up to Madrid for a jam. Adrian's got similar interests to me and Raquel. So he was in.
Liquid Graveyard plays Hybrid Metal. It consists of many musical elements condensed to a 4 piece band. Principally songs are the focus; it's just the interpretation that is different. Each member has a blank canvas to work with which allows an element of experimentation to the overall sound. As for bands that have influences us, we all have our favorites!
Criministers is a social comment that explores the hypocrisy and corruption in modern day's politics.
1760 is the average amount of hours worked by each individual in Europe per year. The song explores the suffering that's endured with modern living and the results of mental sickness within our societies.
Currently we're preparing songs to be recorded, shortly. As it's the first LIQUID GRAVEYARD CD for commercial release we're negotiating with labels, we hope to have something released for the start of next year. Although time schedules aren't always realistic in this business.
Yes, Raquel sings a wide variety of vocals, I do back her up on the chorus of 1760 but all the rest is her.
Raquel designed the artwork. We wanted something very simple and direct for this demo. A direct message of what we are and what we do. Nothing too extravagant or naive, we wanted something that would be easy to understand and read. I'm talking about the band logo and the title of the demo.
With a CD released we'll be playing concerts all over Europe. Personally I would like to play in Greece as I haven't played with CANCER, in the past.
Yes, I hope that the information I have given isn't misunderstood. LIQUID GRAVEYARD isn't a band that's one specific genre, each member of the band has a different musical history and we celebrate this, with variety. As long as it rocks, we're happy and we hope you are. As for anything to add, yes John McCain is a genetically modified human being that was created from the rotting DNA of Homer Simpson and Steve Martin.
