First of all, you may introduce your band to the
world.
Hi! For all the readers and members of industrialized
metal site: we are Blood, a Spanish metal band with
Spanish lyrics.
In the beginning you made heavy metal under the name
"Captain Blood". Why did you decide to walk the
industrial path?
The music we did in the past was not as important for us.
We liked it, but we thought that this kind of music was
not made for us. So, we looked for something different
that we could feel inside of us. With the “new” sound of
Blood we are very comfortable and we are very proud on
it as well.
What bands did influence you in the elder times, and
what are your main influences nowadays?
In the past we used to listen to bands like Metallica,
Megadeath, Slayer, Aerosmith… and common. Nowadays, we
listen and get our inspiration of industrial or gothic
bands, like Oomph!, Covenant, Lacrimosa, Rammstein, etc.
You started off as a five piece, but currently you
are acting as a trio. Did the two others left because
they didn’t agree to go industrial? And will they be
replaced, or will you continue as a trio?
The other Blood members left the band due to personal
issues or jobs. It was hard to take Blood forward with
just three people but now we think we are better than
ever before and we have no intention of put another
person in blood
Your new album called Psike received some good rating
from our zine. What do you think of the album yourself?
We are very happy about the album! We think is a good
work, made with a lot of illusion and suffer. We are
very glad about you like our band! We think Psike is a
good album, and catching step by step our own style.
There is nothing we think it is en error for us in this
album
How do the people in Spain reply on the debut? And
what about the press?
For the moment it is having a good acceptation, although
here in Spain industrial music is not a good known style.
It seems that people is answering very good to the album
and the shows. Some of the press (as your webzine do) is
helping us a lot. Thanks to all of you.
According to your webpage your album suffered a long
delay before its release. What happened?
There were several problems with second cd (the remixes
cd), we had to turn it back to the factory and make it
again. These was the big delay of some months of our
album.
There are not much industrial bands from Spain known
to me. How is the industrial scene over there?
There are not many industrial bands in Spain, and these
are not having a good support. In Spain people are still
just listening to classic heavy metal or rock and have
some fear bout new sounds. So that we think we and all
these industrial bands will have a better acceptation
out of Spain. We hope Spain change a soon as possible.
What can we expect of Blood in the future?
We just want people could see that Psike has a lot of
effort and could appreciate it.
Thanks for your time. If you have anything to add,
you can do it here.
Thanks a lot to industrialized metal for your time.
Thanks again to all the readers, and we would like to
say that Psike is also available across Europe. Here you
have some places where you can buy it.
