On October 10, Metal Mark of SkullsNBones.com conducted an interview with guitarist Trevor Peres and drummer Donald Tardy of Florida death metallers OBITUARY at Saint Vitus Bar in Brooklyn, New York. You can now watch the chat below.OBITUARY kicked off a short tour with a pair of back-to-back shows at Saint Vitus Bar before flattening nine more venues through October 20. Having been holed up in their own Redneck Studios the last few weeks penning the follow-up to 2009's punishing "Darkest Day" full-length (2009), OBITUARY's current shows serve as a temporary writing break. The as-yet-untitled full-length will be recorded with the Kickstarter funding help of their legion of dedicated fans around the globe. The campaign, rooted in an honest desire to produce the next record on their own terms, is in its final week. "We've been creating death metal since 1984," the band commented. "It's who we are...it's in our blood. "If there's one thing that we've learned touring all these years, it's that OBITUARY fans are among the most loyal and supportive motherfuckers in the world! "We've been trying to find better ways to engage with and give back to our fans. "Over the past couple of years, we've streamed concerts live from around the globe, given away tons of merch packages and dozens of all-access backstage passes. It's inspiring to see and share in your excitement about OBITUARY, and the inspiration that provides keeps us going. This is about putting our trust, our music, our career, and our new album in fans' hands! We want to make music for the people who still come out to shows, still sport our gear, and still have a 'Slowly We Rot' cassette in their car."
