Beherit
from Finland are one of the most interesting Black Metal acts coming from this
land at the moment "Drowing down the moon" is a real masterpiece for
me: Much more interesting and better that this bootleg made by Turbo music
(facists, stay away!), So I'd liked to write to the guy who formed Beherit,
Holocausto. He send me the aswers after a short time, but he was very sorry
because at the moment he's homeless, so he hasn't the time to send me longer
asnwers. It's a real pity, but what can I do? So read and enjoy!
"Drawning
down the moon" is your newest release on Spinefarm Records. A better deal?
How is the respnse of your new one?
"Yeah, I think it's a cool deal now because I know personally the dudes in
Spinefarm. The response has been pretty good."
Why did Turbo Music put
your "Oath of the black blood" demo on vinyl? I think it wasn't that
good!
"The oath of black blood" was a bootleg, we didn't want it.
Most songs of your new
album are slow and much better. Your voice's also much more agressive I think.
Realm Blackmetal now, and no blacknoise anymore?
I don't know, is it real Blackmetal but there's a real feeling. I still like
Noiz but hope it's okay.
You use a keyboard too
for intro's and the background music. Do you need such effects?
No, not really. But it was a good atmosphere processor.
I read in an Impaled
Nazarene interview that Mika cll beherit their "brother band". Do you
agree?
100%ly!!! (oh hell yes, this was a good answer!-ed.)
Aren't there too much
'zines. Bad 'zines who destroy the whole scene? Do you think the scene need
zines?
Too much zine's, but the scene need zines
I'd like to know (and I think some readers too) what do you think about
witchcraft, satanism and other occult stuff!
Very interesting...ODINISM/ASATRU
We can see all day long what we're doing wiith this planet and
ourselves. How much time do we need to destroy our earth totally?
One hour and fifteen minutes.
Back to your new album again. Who is Beherit now? Any new members? Who
left the band after your "first" LP?
No new members, I'm just alone right now, but I move to Helsinki in a couple of
months time and there I know some cool freaks to band.
What is life and death for you?
Life is a party, death is a party (hahah, this is really funny! -ed.).
And a boring question, any plans to release something new next time?
Yeah, a 12" underground release in 1994
What do you think happened after the dead? Do you believe in this
"Heaven and Hell" story or is it possible for you to live on earth
like a ghost?
Hard!!! Valhalla.
Could you tell me something about Iak Sakkakh?
No, what should I?
What means "The gate of Nanna" or "Nuclear girl"? Is
there any message behind such songs?
The gate of Nanna, moon, sin... Necronomicon text. Nuclear Girl - metal ambient,
the house of A. Crowley in my mind.
Now let's come to an end! Any last things from you?
Thank you and I want
to sent greetings to all my friends in Germany (Yep, thanks also to you for
this interview, wich is really short, but I can understand your situation). I
have had some problems to do the mail and I am homeless still for two months,
all contacts to the new Spinefarm adress.
