Interview With Gruesome












MMP-At what age did you start playing music?
Gruesome-My brother and I both got ONE guitar to share when we were about 9 or 10 ten years old. After we got kind of good on guitar we decided that one of us should play drums so we could start a band. I befriended a kid in school named Chris whom I heard had a drumset and I went over to his house and immediately fell in love with the instrument! I think I was about 12yrs old then...


MMP-How did you start out as a musician ?
Gruesom-At first I taught myself songs on guitar, learning them by ear. I took a few guitar lessons, but once I learned to tune and some chords I was on my way. Then on drums I was self taught for about 5yrs until I met Dave Culross...once I saw him play I asked him for lessons. After he went back to New York, I very fortunately met Sean Reinert and continued studies with him until he moved to Los Angeles. But from those lessons I was able to watch the old VHS drum instructional videos and understand everything enough to further my skills on my own.

MMP-What bands are you influenced by?
Gruesome- In metal I'd say mostly Slayer, Death, Kreator, and Dark Angel. But I am also influenced heavily outside of metal too! I listen to many different styles of music and take bits and pieces from each one.

MMP-What year did the band start out?
Well my new band is called Gruesome and we put it together just this year
MMP-How many albums do you have out & where can fans buy them?
Gruesome-We just finished our debut album called "Savage Land" and it will be released early next year through Relapse Records

MMP -Who all is in the band & plays what?
Gruesome-Where is the band located? The band features Matt Harvey (Exhumed) on guitar/vocals, Daniel Gonzalez (Possessed) on guitar and Robin Mazen (Derketta) on bass. I guess we're bi-coastal with 3 of us in Florida and Matt in California
MMP-What bands would you like to tour with?
Gruesome-Old school death metal bands like Deicide, Obituary, Massacre, Bolt Thrower, etc
MMP-Is there anything you'd like to say to the fans out there?
Gruesome-Well, thanks for the support and don't believe everything you read!! Be sure to check out my new band Gruesome...if you are a fan of the first 3 DEATH albums, you are going to LOVE this band!!

MMP- tell us how can fans get your music?
Gruesome-I would imagine anywhere that Relapse has distribution worldwide. For now they can go to facebook.com/gruesomedeathmetal and follow the links to our bandcamp page.
Thank You.
