Interview withA/J (vocals, guitars) of Saint Motel
SAINT MOTEL is a difficult act to describe but yet very hard to resist and damn right fun overall when it comes to their theatrical set ups performance wise. But when you narrow it all down, SAINT MOTEL is made up of A/J (vocals, guitars), A Sharp (guitar), Greg Erwin (drums) and Dak (bass). Together, these musicians constantly experiment over and over again pushing the boundaries of their creativity taking it to a whole new level each and every time. Front man A/J spoke to me briefly about how the band came to be along with the process of how their debut EP came around down to everything else in between with this brief in your face conversation.

Interview withMauno Meesit from Sinine
When you think of Estonia, the dominating image is that of melancholic, misty landscapes, untouched and romantically dark, breathing peace and loneliness. This country is the home ground of SININE. As the release info says, “the band's music is honest, unaffected and straightforward, without any stereotypical clichés, and of a touching beauty. Stylistically, SININE's sound wavers between pop, dark wave and metal, combining electronic music with acoustic instruments - a mixture of incredible homogeneity, conclusion and sophistication that shows clearly all the work that has gone into this record. SININE have spared neither time nor love for detail in the creation of this musical pearl, and that can be felt in every tone and nuance floating out of the loudspeakers.”

Interview withJoel Grind (vocals / guitar) of Toxic Holocaust
What do you get when you combine a toxic with a holocaust? Give up? TOXIC HOLOCAUST! These punk-inflected thrash metallers out of Portland, Oregon have been kicking it old school since the 1980s. Their musical influences had ranged from a wide variety of acts, Discharge, Hellhammer, Bathory, Venom and Possessed just to name a few. Joel Grind founded TOXIC HOLOCAUST in 1999 being the original team mate who wrote and recorded everything within his very own bed room.
