INTERVIEW. 032 - GNARWOLVES
How and why did Gnarwolves form?
I think Gnarwolves formed purely out the need for the three of us to be active in music. We all live up in Brighton, and when the band started Kasa and Rasputin were spread out all over the country so playing regularly just wasn’t an option. Me and Max had already bodged an attempt to start a band in Brighton, then we saw a post Charlie put on facebook...
The Long Haul playing Debtors yesterday.
Alright!
99 Followers! Thanks!
Also I was supposed to interview PBTT but I don’t think thats gonna happen now. Their PR guy is a goon.

INTERVIEW. 031 - FIRE & ICE
How and when did Fire & Ice form?
In 2008 after Iron Boots called it quits me and Dave didn’t have any bands going on, Hunter from Bracewar asked if I wanted to start something new, I said “duh”. Me and Hunter jammed a couple of times to try and figure out a direction, we didn’t end up getting far so we recruited Groater from Down To Nothing, we practised a couple of...

INTERVIEW. 030 - HOSPITALS
When and how did Hospitals form?
We formed at the very end of 2010 but didn’t really do anything until the beginning of the next year. We got together for a number of reasons, some of us weren’t playing, some of us weren’t playing stuff we liked, some of us had just lost bands. It basically all lined up to be the perfect time to start something completely new. Jaff and I had...
Interviews
I’ve done 29 interviews now. More to come. One with one of my favourite bands FIRE & ICE and some other cool bands. It would be higher than 29 right now if some didn’t fall through. I did one with Witch Cult/IIOVV which was taken down for changes but never sent back to be reposted. One with Russian Circles that was wayy outdated by the time I got it. The Ravachol/Vinosangre ones...

INTERVIEW. 029 - CROCUS
How and when did Crocus form?
It is hard to answer this really, in some form Crocus has been around since Lewis and I played together in a shed when we were fourteen but on the other hand Crocus has only really been what it is now for about a year. We were a three piece, then Lewis joined with whom I had played with for years then for a two years it was that steady four, including Greg Milne (now...

INTERVIEW. 028 - GRADER.
When and how did Grader form? And where does the name come from?
Myself (Fraser), John and James had been playing together for a while, when our vocalist left John asked Liam to come and practice with us and he never left. We recorded the 2010 demo’s pretty early on and decided we’d benefit from a second guitarist. Not long after Graham joined the band. The name is just something...

INTERVIEW. 027 - HENRY ROLLINS.
You joined your first band S.O.A in 1980 and have been involved in music/bands since. How do you find it singing/writing lyrics. Is it something that came naturally or do you feel you have progressed over the years?
I always felt natural onstage and with a band or on my own. That being the case, that doesn’t necessarily make me a “natural”. I don’t know how I came off to people. I always went by...
