Subject: Flo Mounier slams internet critics
Posted by: Flo Mounier slams internet critics by zyklon
on May 15,2008 11:26am | On extremely rough mixes of songs from CRYPTOPSY's upcoming album, "The Unspoken King", being leaked online without the band's approval:
"I don't know who, but someone got their hands on a copy and passed it along to someone who put them up [online] when they weren't even mixed or finished. . . It is pretty funny how big of an impact [the songs] had on some people. There is nothing wrong with constructive criticism — or any criticism for that matter — but there were a lot of idiots that said a lot of stupid things that just should not have. If you don't like something, just don't listen to it. You don't need to get rude or aggressive about it. I thought it was a funny reaction. Especially now, it's even funnier that some of those original naysayers are now getting used to the new songs and coming back and saying they think they are great. There is a whole mixed bag of comments and the people that are most persistent on the Internet are usually the ones that don't even buy the albums or go to shows — they just stay on the Internet and bitch.”
On the departure of singer Lord Worm and the band's musical growth:
"It was pretty simple. He and I had a talk and we both came to the conclusion that it was time that CRYPTOPSY found a new singer. It was for different reasons, both for him personally and for the band as well. As far as evolving and experimenting, we need someone who is a little more on the money with the structures and phrases. As far as he is concerned, Lord Worm is 42 years old now and the touring lifestyle takes a toll. It was a mutual decision and it was not an unfriendly one. We just decided it was time to do something different.
"We really set out to make an album that was more extreme, with dynamic changes and dynamic verses in the songs. Basically, what it comes down to is just taking music and taking doable extremes and matching them up in a way where it becomes a song and not just riff after riff after riff.
"I think the challenge was to create something that is completely ridiculously fast and brutal and then bring it down to something that is incredibly catchy and then bring it back up. To make the record breathe and give it this huge diversity to challenge people and make it interesting and even more fun to play."
On the addition of vocalist Matt McGachy to the group's lineup:
"I had checked out Matt live at one of his shows. I found he was right on the money pitch wise and was really aggressive, full of energy and figured we should try him out. He came in, did a few songs and banged them out so perfectly that it was really quite impressive."[8 replies][disscussion link] [views=16277] |
