Interviews With Necroblasphemer

Screams Of Abel: What is Infernal Holocaust? Not only as a band, but how it stands to represent the Christian experience?

Necroblasphemer: Infernal Holocaust is a solo manifestation of spiritualism, love and emotion. This goes deeper than just Infernal Holocaust. I consider myself as being the angel of true love, destroyer of evil and protector of all females. That probably sounds really corny but should be taken seriously. Everyday I consider myself less and less human because I realize I am the only person I know that has true love for everything and not even an ounce of hatred. My music is to lead people to Christ and I hope to have a bunch of Satan worshippers purchase this as well. That is why it is being dedicated to Euronymous.

Screams Of Abel: What bands influence your sound? How much do each of them play a role in the sound of Infernal Holocaust?

Necroblasphemer: Well the sound in comparison to other bands would be on the first CD a combination of Satyricon, Mayhem, Dark Funeral, Antestor, Grim, Horde and Death. Watering it down a little I will expect it to be a direct combination of Nemesis Divina by Satyricon, The Sound Of Perseverance by Death and the always legendary Deathcrush by Mayhem. To a bigger suprise my favorite band is Dream Theater. Also Rhapsody, the Symphonic Epic Metal band from Italy. So it varies greatly. I plan on doing so much with my music. I am going to HOPEFULLY record some albums with Eva-O. If I can ever get in contact with her. My personal genre will be a mix of Progressive Rock, Gothic Rock, Opera, Classical, Death Metal, Black Metal, Hardcore, New Age and Industrial. It will be called Necrocore.

Screams Of Abel: What releases do you have out or plan to have out soon? And how did you hook up with Laceration Productions?

Necroblasphemer: Total Desecration Of The Evil Dead which I plan to have out later this year which will have 7 tracks of Nowegian Black Metal except the 7th grade will be a mixture of gothic rock, new age and hardcore. As you know I do play all my instruments myself. Well I was friends with Corey who is the drummer for Goredeath and didn't know he owned Laceration and it was cool that he did so I was automatically signed and hope to do stuff with him someday.

Screams Of Abel: Describe to us what the black metal Christian scene is like in America. Even
I see so little influence of it. Do Americans really have any idea what the black metal scene, Christian or otherwise, is all about?

Necroblasphemer: Well there is no scene in this rural town where I live in Texas. In fact I don't really know anyone that listens to any type of metal, haha. Yes I believe they do, very much so. Just don't expect is around where I live. Thats why I'm so different. My love songs are better than my christians songs. And less offensive.

Screams Of Abel: On your homepage you describe yourself as a type of inheritor of Euronymous,
who was murdered by Count Grisnach in 1993. Wasn't Euronymous in a satanic band? If so, how do you feel a connection to him in light of your differing beliefs?

Necroblasphemer: I believe its Grishnack. Oh well.. Yes Euronymous was the leader of the Inner Circle (satanic mafia) and was guitarist for Mayhem at several different times. Mayhem is considerably the most legendary black metal band there is. They started in 1983 and they have quite a legend behind them!! I am doing it for Christ though, not satan. So I don't want anyone to get the wrong idea. I just plan on being very individualistic and doing things that no one else would do.

Screams Of Abel: Your opinion on face paint: many find it enlightening, others find it evil, others even find it unnecessary. Where do you stand?

Necroblasphemer: I think its good for shows and media but if you wear it everyday I think it can cause problems. Hehe. I'm going to have pictures of me with the good old goth makeup and also bearing a long sleeve Horde shirt in my first cd. The first CD cover will have a painting of light coming from the sky and burning all the satanic undead that has risen to cause trouble in the endtimes. I haven't seen the cover yet but I have a friend onlint that is doing it for me.

Screams Of Abel: Future plans?

Necroblasphemer: Yes future plans of course. Ive written around 300 songs so I have that taken care of quite so. The second CD will have 8 tracks and will be both black metal and death metal. Then after that I'm going to go pretty nuts and start creating the strangest music you will ever hear. One minute someone will be vomiting (practically) and there will be totally off tune guitars playing and then the next you will hear an angel singing with a symphony in the background.

Screams Of Abel: Final Comments?

Necroblasphemer: Well I guess I should tell some about me. My name is Necroblasphemer and I am 17 years old. I've searched my entire life for my significant other and I believe I have found her. Let's hope so, I am running out of time. Her name is Heather and I did meet her online (not in person yet). I think after this 2000 thing that the new generation will actually end up meeting people online and that will be a normal thing for that time and date. Thats just how I feel. I mean you really get to know someone before you meet them and it's beautiful. I have also written screenplays,stories and relationship guides. My love songs got to someone so deeply it stopped them from committing suicide. When I was 15 I counseled people and then I also stopped people from committing suicide. It's a great feeling. I want to be an actor, humanitarian, gothic minister, screenwriter, indie horror film maker and the most passionate lover that has ever existed. I built and programmed myself to be like this. That is another reason I am so different, there is absolutely NO ONE like me. And if there is please write to me, I think it would be great to talk. Bill Cosby and Robin Williams rule!! God Bless everyone!!!
