Hi guys, we are writing material for an upcoming release and having a great time with it.
No, it wasn't hard at all because the group is very tight and the musicianship is great so it was all easier because of it. It has been a great pride working with them in both albums.
We had played on Inner Sanctum with Marth previously so when he started Territory he called me up to be a part of it, and we started working very hard from then on to get to where we are now. Despite all the line-up changes we've always had very smooth transitions as every new member comes with a lot of experience and now we are very fortunate to have a solid line-up.
It's not that frequent that we play live shows as we try to keep the band fresh in the sense that we always try to do new things with the set list. To be able to have a surprise or two for the fans. To me our most memorable show was when we opened for Hail! (Ripper Owens, Andreas Kisser, James Lo Menzo, Paul Bostaph).
Our influences are very varied as all the members have different influences. Vocally my main influences are classic heavy metal, power metal and thrash bands like Anthrax.
I would recommend checking out Sentencia, Siria, Radical, Ecivresotua, Contraveneno and Through The Eyes of Perversion.
I have contributed Sacred Field for the band thus far which is based on a true story that has had repercussions through time because of the gravity of the event. We don't all have the same inspiration lyrically speaking in the band but I think we have achieved a nice balance.
Ozzy is a great vocalist but I think that my influence comes from different vocalists such as Rob Halford, Joey Belladonna and Bruce Dickinson. Nevertheless I try to find my own personal style.
1984 is based on George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four. The Curse can be seen as reflected in different situations along the record but it is not a conceptual album.
The deal with Sleaszy Rider came through Marth who worked very hard in getting international contacts for the band and has done great managerial work in that sense.
We have tried to innovate and purify the sound in each record so as to become better with each release. We have looked for a more modern sound each time and the musical progression has been very natural in that sense.
We are working on a new album and booking local and international shows in order to promote The Curse.
These are the words: "Always keep your face up and seek for new horizons". Thank you very much to all the fans for their support and thank you for the talk.
More results...
