Hey,
tell us about how MAGGUT got together. What was your first
recording?
Well,I (drummer)met Yosino(gore and bass ) three years
ago at a gig.
We jammed for six months before I met Funakosi( guitar)
at my workplace.
In February2002, we made our first demo together.
I
hear a lot of older RGTE influences in your music. What
do you think of their newer stuff? I also hear some older
death/grindgore influences, from bands like XYSMA, CARCASS(of
course), and others. What are some older and newer bands
you guys like?
We were influenced a lot by RGTE's old stuff and though
we still like their new sounds.
They are no longer part of the goregrind genre which is
a shame.
We are also influenced by CARCASS, IMPETIGO, DEADINFECTIONAN.D,
GUT, ASSUCK, G.B.N, S.O.B, TERORIZER, E.N.T, AGATHOCLES,
B.T, MORBID ANGEL, SLAYER, CARNAGE, CELTIC FROST and so
on.
We like IMPALED, HAEMORRHAGE, EXHUMED, L.D.H, DISGORGE,
SANITYS DAWN as well.
Seems like MAGGUT plays a lot of
live shows, tell us about some of them.
Are you friends with CSSO, GORE BEYOND NECROPSY, etc?
Do you guys like CATASEXUAL URGE MOTIVATION?
We don't play a lot of live shows, maybe,once a month,or
once every two months.
We always enjoy playing with cool grind bands.
We are really looking forward to the next gig with DEAD
INFECTION in November.
Members of Japanese grind bands are very cool, in fact
we are good friends with CSSO(BUTCHER ABC),G.B.N. Unfortunately,we
don't know much about C.U.M. But C.U.M. sounds is killer
!!
Tell us about your upcoming split
7" ep. How many songs does it have, what are some
song titles, etc.?
Any other split ep's you have planned?
Do you guys plan to do a full CD one day?
This
split 7" ep with INTUMESCENCE from Holland will be
released by German label FESTERING DEATHFUCK DECOMPOSITION.
There are six songs, five of them are new songs and one
is re-recorded.
Song titles are, maggut swarmed gut,victims of minchslauter
elephantiasis of the testicle,ultimate torture recurrence,putrid
slut fucking fire and total disablist murders inexorable
bloodshed assault, ...hehehehe
For our next release, we are going to join a Japanese
OSAKA grind compilation album, after which we are going
to release something through Bloodbathrecords.
We hope to make a full album someday.
Will you guys always have pitch
shifted vocals? I really love the style of vocals you
guys have, hope you won't change it! Also, you have a
great, down-tuned guitar sound. What influences your playing
the most?
Yes,we'll always have pitch shifted vocals. We'll never
change our style. Thanks for your positive feedback.
Our guitar sound is strongly influenced by CARCASS.
What do you think of the current
underground death/grind/gore scene?
Who are some of your fave bands and labels?
The Japanese underground death/grind scene is especially
small and there is absolutely no gore scene.
Actually,there are a lot of excellent grind bands and
labels in Japan at the moment.
For example, UNHOLY GRAVE, G.B.N, BUTCHER ABC, REALIZED,
D.I.E, DISGUST, MORTALIZED
are cool bands.
OBLITERATION RECORDS, BLOODBATH RECORDS are cool labels.
Do you guys prefer real drawn artwork,
or real-life images of death/gore?
Do you have any favorite artists, or writers? Like any
horror films?
We like real-life images of death /gore.
Our artwork depicts dark images of cruelty and horror.
We think this style closely corresponds with our sound.
We don't know much about artists or films but we do love
H.R.Giger.
You guys are going to be on the
GUT tribute CD. Tell us about this!
GUT is one of our favorite bands.
So, we jumped at the opportunity to contribute to the
CD.
We were flattered by the offer.
Any other new Japanese grind/gore
bands you would like to talk about?
As we said, there are practically no gore bands.
But, there are heaps of imerging grind bands so many so
we can't check them all out.
That's all for now, thanks for doing
the interview and keep up the great work with MAGGUT!
