EXHUMED INTERVIEW (july 29 1998)

Today, I am god damn horny.  I have masturbated eleven times already, but now I am forced to stop because of the enormous bleeding sore that I have made on the end of my penis.  All this because I've just returned from the Milwaukee Metal Fest, and after looking at a bunch of slutty metal chicks for two days,
I've a case of blue balls you wouldn't believe.  Unfortunately, we aren't big rock stars, we are degenerate perverts, so we were unable to pick up any chicks.  Well, Maniac from Mayhem gave me oral sex, but that just wasn't enough.

I just listened to the compilation "Chords of Chaos"(Lofty Storm Records); I think that new material is great; Are you happy of this 4-way-split?
Yes, although it took a very long time to come out.  Our material on there is more than a year and a half old, and it shows, unfortunately.  Necrose and Excreted Alive are also really cool, but I think Ear Bleeding Disorder are the fucking bomb!  They rule my world.

What about the split with Nyctophobic? Are you great friends with them?
Nyctophobic are great, in bed, that is. No, they are very cool guys, and one night during Grind Over Europe 2, while sniffing cocaine off some Deutsche schlampen's (that's sluts, to those who don't speak German) asses, we decided doing a split seven inch together would be really cool.  It will be out soon, and the only delay is our artwork, because we are still taking massive amounts of hallucinogens in order to conceive it.  I've been up for five days eating nothing but magic mushrooms, acid tabs, and pop rocks.  The Rat, the drummer of Nyctophobic, says if he don't hurry up our side of the split, he wil force feed us barrels of H�ten Snack until we die in a diahreic fit.

What's going on with your first full lenght? Is there other new Exhumed
stuffs coming out soon?
We are in the middle of recording our album, actually.  It will be done soon, and will most likely be out in the winter of our discontent, that is, 1998. So far, we know it is to be called "Gore Metal," it will feature at least 15 new songs, a Sodom cover tune, and will clock in at over 45 minutes in length. A real album!  Also cumming out is our poo, the aforementioned split seven inch with Nyctophobic released from Revenge Records in Germany, a split seven inch with Retaliation to be released by Headfucker in Italy, and hot off the presses is a split 7" with Pantalones Abajo Marinero, now available from Al Pacino Records in the states.  Also, Relapse is still planning to re-release the Hemdale / Exhumed split CD with bonus tracks from both bands.

Did your line-up change often since the beginning?
Many times.  We are on our fourth guitarist (the other one being the original), third vocalist, and ninth bassist.  The main problem is that we demand of new members complete submission to all that is Exhumed, and if that means that Matt's mom wants you to eat out her swollen encrusted and papule ridden pussy, that means you do it.  I think Matt abuses that power, though, when he demands that he sit on a new members face while farting after having eaten Mexican food and garlic pizza.

I think that Exhumed "music" is mainly influenced by grind, black and death metal. What do you think about your music style?
That is just way completely off.  Our main influence is Edie Gormet.  Hands down.  She knows how to rock a house.  I think that is apparent, as well as the perfect musical description of our style, in the title of our upcumming album.

Do you have different topics for the new lyrics or will you stay in necrophiliac genre? Why are you attracted by necrophilia?
Hmmm, well, the new album actually has very little necrophilia potrayed in it. There are songs about genital disorders, autopsy procedures, pedo-cannibalism, dismemberment, grave violating, brain abscessing, cadaver storage, cunnigulis, disgruntled morticians, and blazing corpses.  There is still necrophilia,
however.  Necrophilia attracts us because it is the ultimate in love, where yo can be assured that your lover will always be there for you, always be willing to listen, provide for you sexually at all times, and plus their rotten, smouldering skin feels great when you caress them.  You know, we are about nothing but love.

I saw some Exhumed band pictures. Are you wearing like this everyday?
Well, more or less.  Somedays we are more naked, and walk around town with buttless pants on, showing off our great asses to the general public.  Other times we wear leather chaps, and nothing else.  That way, all the ladies can check out our massive genitalia.  The spikes and bullet belts we usually do not wear until we are ready to got bed.

Which is the band is hate the most; and the band you like the most?
I can't think of who I hate the most, but Edie Brickel and the new Bohemians really suck.  My favorite band is Repulsion.  Did I mention that I have sex with an inflatable sheep?

How does the demo "Horrific expulsion of gore" sound? Is it still available?
It sounds terrible, and subsequently, no, it is not available.

Why did you cover Possessed "Death Metal" on split cd with Hemdale?
Why not?  Possessed fucking rule!  They were very underappreciated at the time we covered that song, but now I hear that their CDs are being re-pressed, and somebody has done a great job bootlegging their "seven churches" shirt, so now everybody can have one.

How are Exhumed live shows?
Loud.

Tours or live gigs planned for soon?
We are always playing shows in our immediate area, but no tour plans have been formulated as of yet.  We'd love to hit Europe again, and I mean that literally, and we would also like to get across the United States.  Also, I'd love to play in Tunisia, I hear they have a great scene there.

What are you going to do now?
Well, I am going to masturbate again, despite the bleeding sore on my pee pee.

Then, I can't find any other questions; any last words?
Thank you for indulging me sexually.  Being insipred by your frenchness, I think I am going to masturbate while thinking of Julie Delpy.  Write to me, while I am not masturbating, at Exhumed / c-o Pearly Penile Papules / PU Box 53432 / San José, CA 95153 / U.$.A.
