Azerath:
Slava,
Cernorog!
Can you
give us a brief history of the band?
Cernorog:
Slava!
The band was formed at the end of 90’s by Dod and Gamayun /MiroSlav/. In
the 2001 we had recorded our first demo ‘...Going Towards The Gates Of
Mistery’ then in 2004 our first official release ‘Son O Iriyi’. The
line-up passed off some changes, but this isn’t very interesting. Now it
contains of 3 people: Cernorog /vox/, Gamayun /guitars/, Dod /battery/.
Azerath:
Son O Iriyi (Krv Records, 2005) is your last release, what
are your feature plans?
Cernorog: Well on autumn we prepare 2 gigs in Czech republic. We will
record our new album in the nearest future, and we have to find the label
for its production. So the main plans...
Azerath:
Your
lyrics are about slavonic honour, pride and blood but some of them are in
english. Why you don’t use your native language in all of them?
Cernorog: Because of feeling. Some songs sounds better in english, some in
slovak.
Azerath:
One of
my favorite slavonic scenes is Ukrainian. They have good bands such as:
Astrofaes, Kroda, Hate Forest, Volhv and so on. What are yours and
how strong does they influences your music?
Cernorog:
My favorite ukrainian bands are Nokturnal Mortum, Drudkh,
Dub Buk and
Hate
Forest. I think there’s no influences in our music by this bands. We play
very different music than Nokturnal Mortum or Hate Forest. Well there was
some opinions our music is like Astrofaes, but I don’t think so. We don’t
play music to resemble our idols or bands we like. We have own ideas and
own music.
Azerath:
How do you see your local Black Metal scene. Something about your side
projects?
Cernorog:
There’s no scene in
Slovakia.
There are some bands but no scene. Projects? Chrobacny Jezisko was
provocative antichristian death metal, Aries was raw black metal and
Mystical Nightcharm – melodic metal. None of these projects exists til
now. It’s the past we have to look to the future.
Azerath:
What have been some of your highlights in a live setting?
Dod :
Participation at Metal Head Mission Festival at Crymea, UA in 2005, and
Tour with Arkona (RUS) in Slovakia at June 2006. Great great concerts!!!
Azerath:
Tell us something more about your interests? Mythology, history or
whatever else.
Dod:
We are interested in our Slavic mythology of course, as all
true Slavs and we want to pass the knowledge gathered for ages by our
ancestors to next generations, at least by music we produce and by our
ideas concerned there...
And as well we would be glad if all the Slavs got united by heart...
Azerath:
Are you
interested in politics?
Cernorog:
No. I’m not. I know better ways to waste my energy...
Azerath:
Do you know something about
Bulgaria?
Cernorog:
Yes, of
course... Artmedia lost its match with Levski Sofia in UEFA Cup haha.
Bulgaria is well-known here in Slovakia. Our people are coming there for
their holiday. I have never been in Bulgaria but I hope it will be
possible to play some gigs for bulgarian fans.
Azerath:
That's
all, thank you for the interview.
Your
last words?
Cernorog:
Slava brothers!!!
Dod: NA SLAVU RODU!!! NA SLAVU PERUNU!!! NA SLAVU BOGOM NASHIM!!!! I
LYUBITE SVOJU ZEMLU!!!
