INTERVIEWS TO DESTRUCTION - ITALIAN VERSION
Q:
First of all, Shmier, you've been to Wacken Open Air Festival few days ago.
How was this experience for you and your band?
A: Oh, it was very exciting, you know, is the best festival in the
world, fans are international… we had a great time and we made a great party!
Just few problems between organization and some bands this year… but the
atmosphere was fantastic!
Q: Are there some differences between European tour and the shows
you're going to play in America in few days?
A: I think every kind of show is different… In south America shows
are more wild than in the United States, they're bigger and there's always
a lot of people… South America is like Italy or Greece, fans are Wild.
Q:
But… who do you prefer? American audience or European audience?
A: Oh, it's almost the same, South American and European are the
best!
Q: When will your new album be published?
A: Next year, in September, 'cause we're touring now. After the tour,
we're going to record in studio. Now we're preparing a live DVD.
Q: Oh, well, talk me about this DVD. Does it have any particularity?
A: I guess it will include Wacken Open Air and other festival and
shows we made around the world, backstage material, studio recording material,
interviews to the dand, interviews to the fans… all this kind of stuff.
Q:
Are you going to record your new album in Peter's Abyss Studios?
A: NO, not in the Abyss anymore, we're gonna produce it in differenr
studios. We're looking for… well, we don't know yet, we just wanna have
a change, you'll see. Two times at the Abyss is ok, but now we want to produce
ourselves.
Q: Would you change something of an album like "Release From Agony",
even the sound?
A: Oh, yes, I would change the sound, of course… You know, that album
is not one of my favourite among all Destruction releases, it's "strange
produced"… but in America and the United States is a very popular album.
Maybe I'd try to let the songs more "straight forward"…
Q: Yes, it's a good album but it's also a little bit… "soft"!
A:
yeah, that's right.
Q: How your new album is going to be: classic Destruction sound or
with something special?
A: Well, this time we'd like to try something new, but… you always
gotta have your own style! We have three new songs yet and you'll see how
the rest goes…
