Hey bro! No prob for the intie man, its pleasure for me heh. You’re absolutely right, Infected Guts was formed in the 2006 and then the band just renamed to CI to play more brutal stuff then it was in IG. And besides, as you know, IG was one-man project but CI has full line-up.
02) How did you managed or decided to release already a full-lenght album without any demos, splits or any other underground sick shit? Do you think that this kind of step for unknown band is ’safe’?
Hm, i guess it wasnt thoughtless step cuz we had some demo-records before but it was ‘unofficial’ if i can say so, we just added some tracks on myspace and peolpe can listen them more then half-year so i think it was not so bad.
03) Do you play in any other bands at the moment?
No, i simply have no time for other band now. CI has devoured me haha
04) Can you tell us so more about the reality of living in Russia? Is it really so fucked up as we can see it in media or it is only a propaganda of west region counties? It is your chance to reveal the truth haha
Hah, good question dude! So unfortunatelly i cant tell ‘how is fucking great to live in russia’ but from the other side our life is not so bad as you can hear from some mass media. Our country is gradually develop and i hope some day we will live pretty better as we live now but to be honest i really want to live in europe or states hehe.
05) Ok, back to “Perverted Surgical Concept”. I can say that this album is one the best that I heard last year and I totally love it. Beside Katalepsy and Abominable Putridity this is a fucking sick quality bro.
Thanks a lot bro! We had alot of problems with that album and most of them with sound/quality. Finally we’re not fully satisfied with the result, i guess we could make it better but anyway we are glad that debut full-length has been released and some brutalheads like it! It really means alot for us!
06) Well your music can be described as a brutal slamming death metal with technical parts in my opinion. Do you agree? What kind of music direction do you choose each time while you’re writting new stuff?
I totally agreed with you and that is what we wanted to play. What about direction, hard to say but i guess it almost depends from my musical influnces. For example i really impressed by Origin’s Antithesis, Nailshitter, Defeated Sanity, Vale of Miscreation, new Incinerate and of course some slamming bands like Gorevent.
07) How did the artwork for your album. Introduce this perverted mind to our readers.
This artwork was made by Jumali Katani(http://equatorbox. com/metalartist) and we are fucking love that art, maybe its not so original haha but anyhow its brutal!
08) Your label is Soulflesh Collector which doesn’t sound familiar for many… But they released Fleshbomb and Cerebral Incubation which are also great bands!! Do you feel proud to be a part of this sick gang? And how’s the co-operation going so far?
I would like to say that we’re absolutely satisfied by SFC work. That label really shows alot of support for russian (and last time not only russian you know) brutal scene. I know Mirus for the years and he is fucking sick dude with firm ideological principles so i guess its better choice for us. I agree with that SFC is not so ‘famous’ label now but be sure it will be! Just keep your eyes open for the next releases and i sure you’ll not be disappointed ;)
09) Can you also say few words about the split CD you’re a part of?
This 4-way split was released by Coyote Records in the autumn of 2007. It was hard to find a label to release it cuz most of labels are not like to release some splits with almost unknown bands you know but finally we did it and as i know other bands were pretty contented with the result. I also need to say that we’ll never release such splits in the future cuz its very complicated..hm..except 2-way split i guess haha
10) When can we expect a new album of yours? The sooner the better coz there is many hungry for hospital sickness bestiality freaks out there hehehe
We’re planning to record it in the middle of this year and i hope it will be released in the begin of 2010 or maybe even in the end of 2009. First we are goin to record some 3-song demo stuff to show what kind of material will be on our next full-length cuz it will be abit different with our first one, more technical and more brutal but ofcourse with some slamming parts hehe.
11) Are you gore/horror movies fan? If so what is your favourite one?
Yeah, im a huge fan of old horror zombie movies like Evil Dead, Dawn of the Dead and so on and films like Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Friday 13-th. Im also like some new remakes such as Halloween by Rob Zombie. Favorites are Evil dead 2, Return of the living dead 2, Saw I, love these movies a lot!
12) More about myth… is it true that russian nation drink so heavily? What do you like mostly to drink? Kentucky Burbon Whiskey is a sick shit man, you must try it!
Haha..thanks man, I’ll try. Russian national drink is vodka (i guess everyone knows it heh) has 40 degrees of alcohol strength that is not strongly than your whiskey bro haha…but with one defference we drink it without any ice, lemon and other shit but i dont like any kind of strong drink. My choice is light beer.
13) Ok, that it for today. All the best mate and keep it sick!
Thanks for your support brother, appreciate it alot!! Stay fucking brutal!
