[littlesinners]

Metal-Rules interviewers had a chance to talk with Ol Drake of British trash metal band Evile. Ol Drake talked about the new album, remembering ex-bassist Mike Alexander and also being a fan of Lady Gaga.

''When we decided we wanted to pay our respects to Mike via a song, we thought what better way to do it than using them. What we wanted to convey couldn't be conveyed in an 800 mile per hour Thrash song.''

i thought that Mike would be insulted if the ballad was dedicated to him?

Cool interview. I am excited about Five Serpents Teeth and I hope they come to Las Vegas on their next U.S. tour.

 

[Vedicardi]

don't read too much into it

 

[D.Ingram]

It's THRASH metal, not trash! Goddammit people!

Cool interview though. Always good to see love for these guys.

Different meanings to different people.

To me the entire album seems to have the connection to Mike, for obvious reasons. Even listening to heavier stuff, I got a really sinking feeling in my chest - mostly from the re-realisation that this is the way things will be from now on. That said, In Memoriam is as close to a perfect 'ballad' that these lads will ever get (so don't try and do another one!) and the heavy shit is like BRRRRRRRRRRSHHHHHHHHHHKKKKKKKKK SUPER FUCKING HEAVY so... yeah, seriously. You mothers are going to love this album like a hot girl (or boy, if you're Soybean) laid out gagging for it.

... Am I a bad person for making that analogy?

yes i know, that's what Matt and Ol said before. But Ol says in the quote that ''WE couldn't convey what WE wanted to convey in a 800 miles an hour thrash song''

that's why i'm a bit confused.

anyway, i'm so excited to hear this album. yesterday i watched all the studio vids again and all the little pieces i heard in those vids got me even more excited :Smokin:

I believe anybody that calls Thrash Trash is doing it on purpose and deserve harsh penalties.

 

[D.Ingram]

I think that some people are just dumb

 

[Alteredmindeath]

And some are stupid but ya know we have to deal with these failures.
