Nephren-Ka Interview


1.      Can you give us an update on what is going on with the band these days?

Well, after releasing Revenge and Supremacy on Great Dane Records, we had many gigs in France over the last 2 years to promote the EP, at the same we've also worked real hard to come up with new tracks. To release our latest album, we decided to sign with Kaotoxin Records, a very hard working label when it comes to promotion and whose boss Nico is really dedicated to Extreme Metal.
The Fall of Omnius was recorded and mixed by Geoffroy Dury and then mastered at Hertz Studio in Poland and it will be available on 3 September, and to be perfectly honest with you we're eager to have people listen to it.


2. How would you describe the musical sound of the new album and how
it differs from the previous recordings ?
Though it is the logical continuation of Revenge and Supremacy, The Fall of Omnius is somehow different, we still play fast and rather brutal Death Metal but you will find more old school parts, heavy bits that add a little atmosphere and give the music a darker side, with also a few Black Metal structures aiming in that direction.
Actually, the main difference now is that the musicians really immersed themselves in the universe of Dune for the writing of the songs. If I dare put up the following parallel: Nile's debut album had a few Egyptian elements here and there but it's only on Black Seeds of Vengeance that their Death Metal transpired Egypt. I sincerely think that the end result is more personal and that our influences have been incorporated, that we did finally come up with the Nephren-Ka sound, at least so I hope…


3. The song lyrics are based on the Frank Herbert Dune novel, can you tell us a little bit more about in your interest in this saga and also do you have an interest in the film adaptations  of the novels'?

I did bring the Dune virus within Nephren-Ka, but Sébastien, our guitar player became so infected with it that he now knows almost more about the whole saga than I do...
Everything about it interests us, be it the 6 books written by Herbert or the works by his son on the genesis of Dune and its prequels, and a good part of the concept of The Fall of Omnius is based on his works. I still must get Hunters of Dune and Sandworms of Dune written by Brian Herbert and which end his father's saga.
I am also unconditionally a fan of David Lynch's movie, which is just as strange and mystical than the original books are, even though it may have a few weak points and also by today's standards some kitsch feel to it, it has it own charm: just like Darthrone's approximative sound is actually their main strength.


4. The band was named after a demon in the Lovecraft novel's, what are
the things that interest you about this author?

Lovecraft's world is an evil universe where reigns crawling terror mixed with paranoia, the Chtulhu mythos is particularly brilliant in the genre. Nephren-Ka simultaneously pays tribute to Lovecraft and his black sorcerer and to Nile (a band we all appreciate) who used the name in their debut album.


5. What are some of the best shows that the band has played so far and
how would you describe your stage performance
?

Opening for Napalm Death brings very nice memories, also the gig with Cephalic Carnage, Exhumed and Diluvian (hail Trivette and Bubu!) was also a fantastic concert. Besides those, we enjoy each and every time we're on stage and we give it our all, it's on stage that you can see which band has bollocks, not hidden behind an array of effects that make them sound better than how they actually sound.
When it comes to stage performance, it's not our place to judge ourselves but rather that of the audience. Anyway, we're not here to deliver the same exact song with each note rendered just like on CD, live gigs should have a soul and be the vector of power most and foremost.


6. Do you have any touring or show plans for the new album?

We will play “home” in Clermont on 5 October as a release party for the album together with local and young Death/Black act Lyreside as well as with fellow label mates Antropofago. For the future, a few dates with other bands from the label are being looked on as well as some other things that I will talk about when they actually come true.


7. On a worldwide level how has the feedback been to your music by
fans of death metal?

We were actually really surprised, reviews were almost always positive with R&S, and the only negative feedback we garnered was about the drumming being too snappy and the fact that it was too easy to pinpoint our influences, which I can logically accept but which will not be as blatant on The Fall of Omnius. There are still some people stuck in old school Death Metal for which our Death Metal will always sound too modern, but overall fans of Blood Red Throne and Bolt Thrower should enjoy it just as much as fans of Hour of Penance and Hate Eternal. Anyway, otherwise I wouldn't want to be in the band any longer,ha ha ha…


8. Are there any other musical projects going on these days/
Alex (bass) plays in many Jazz bands, Sébastien writes Doom/Stoner songs once in a while but our main project remains Nephren-Ka.


9.What direction do you see your music heading into on future releases?

Who knows? Still don't expect Deathcore or German Power Metal at all....
Nephren-Ka is a Death Metal band and shall remains so because it wasn't created to be original at any rate or to come up with a nice label just like advertisers do when they want to draw your attention rather than trying to sell you a quality product.
Still, everything tied to Black / Thrash / Doom may be incorporated in Nephren-Ka's sound, speed and violence are our main interests but our concept also requires darkness, atmospheres and heaviness to convey Dune's mystical universe.



10. What are some bands or musical styles that have influenced your
music and also what are you listening to nowadays?

We could cite Hate Eternal, Origin, Behemoth, Incantation, Angelcorpse, Immolation and Hour Of Penance as important references of our common background.
On a more personal level, Alex (bass) and Thibaut (drums) listen mainly to brutal and/or technical Death Metal acts. Sébastien and I (mostly I) are more into old school Death Metal, that's also the singular thing about our music since we mix up all of these influences.
Nowadays I listen a lot to old Heavy Metal (or more recent Heavy Metal just played old school) like Manilla Road, Atlantean Kodex, Magister Templi, Running Wild, etc… When it comes to Extreme Metal, the latest releases by Blood Red Throne, Wormed and Suffocation really kicked my ass but I could also tell you about Infinity, Master, Evildead, Horna, Skepticism, Azarath or Polluted Inheritance, to which I listen regularly.

11. Outside of music what are some of your interests?

My wife and kids, my job, alcohol, gigs, football/rugby, a lot of things to manage…


12. Any final words or thoughts before we wrap up this interview?

Yes: thank you for your interest in Nephren-Ka. Be ready, the Butlerian jihad will sweep the universe and purify it. You can buy the CD here: http://shop.kaotoxin.com/product/nephren-ka-the-fall-of-omnius-cd

  Cleric  are  a  band  from  Dallas,  Texas  that  plays  a  very  old  school  form  of  satanic/occult  death  metal  and  this  is  a  review  of  their  2013  album  "Gratum  Inferno"  which  was  released  by  Tofu  Carnage.

  "Gratum  Inferno"  starts  off  with  some  avant  garde  sounds  and  synths  before  going  into  the  heavy  death  metal  guitars,  drum  blast  beats  and  deep  growls  which  take  the  music  in  a  Swedish  style  death  metal  direction  along  with  some  powerful  bass  in  the  background  and  after  a  minute  the  music  goes  into  a  slower  direction  and  introduces  some  dark  sounding  melodies  for  awhile  before  returning  to  the  faster  direction  and  towards  the  end  a  primitive  guitar  solo  makes  its  presence  known  in  the  song  before  the  end.

  "Through  The  Starless  Abyss"  starts off  with  heavy  guitar  riffs,  drums  and  deep  demonic  growls  before  going  into  a  faster  direction  along  with  blast  beats  and  higher  pitched  growls  mixing  with  the  lower  ones  which  leads  to  the  music  switching  back  and  forth  between  the  slow,  mid  paced  and  fast  parts.

  "From  Womb  To  Tomb"  starts  off  with  some  heavy  Swedish  style  death  metal  riffs,  powerful  bass  and  blast  beats  which  leads  to  the  growls  kicking  in  and  the  music  going  into  a  faster  direction  and  as  the  song  moves  on  there  is  a  brief  use  of  guitar  solos  along  with  some  higher  pitched  screams  which  leads  to  the  music  slowing  down  and  going  into  a  darker  direction  before  closing.

  "Satanic  Dimensions"  starts  off  with  slow  drum  beats  which  leads  to  the  heavy  guitar  riffing  and  growls  and  after  a  minute  the  music  goes  into  a  more  fast  and  primitive  direction  along  with  some  blast  beats  and  high  pitched  screams  before  slowing  down  which  sets  up  the  mood  for  a  dark  guitar  lead  and  the  song  closes  with  some  satanic  style  noises.

  "Into  Death  And  Far  Beyond"  starts  off  with  some  evil  horror  movie  soundtrack  elements  before  kicking  into  heavy  guitar  riffing,  powerful  drumming  and  deep  growls  which  in  return  leads  to  some  melody  mixing  in  with  the  heavy  parts  and  after  awhile  the  music  goes  into  a  more  fast  and  brutal  direction  along  with  blast  beats  and  the  song  closes  with  powerful  bass  lines  and   old  school  guitar  solos.

  "Left  Hand  Wrath"  starts  off  with  horror  movie  synth  sounds  along  with  some  spoken  word  parts  kicking  in  after  a  few  seconds  which  leads  to  the  heavy  guitar  riffs,  drums  and  growls  and  as  the  song  moves  on  the  music  goes  into  a  faster  direction  with  the  brutal  blast  beats  and  after  awhile  the  song  goes  into  a  slower  and  darker  direction  along  with  some  morbid  melodies  and  powerful  bass  playing.

  "Faith  In  Debauchery"  starts  off  with  avant  garde  occult  noises  and  heavy  distortion  before  kicking  into  the  drums,  guitars  and  vocals  which  sets  up  the  pace  for t he  faster  riffing  and  drums  which  also  utilize  some  blast  beats  as  well  as  mixing  in  powerful  bass  and   slowing  down  which  also  leads  to  some  high  pitched  screams  and  distorted  guitar  leads  and  the  song  closes  with  Gregorian  chanting.

  Song  lyrics  cover  Satanism,  Occultism  and  Blasphemous  themes,  while  the  production  has  a  very  strong,  powerful,  heavy  and  professional  sound  where  you  can  hear  all  of  the  musical  instruments  that  are  present  on  the  recording.

  In  my  opinion  Cleric  are  a  very  great  sounding  heavy  and  old  school  satanic/occult  death  metal  band  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  this  musical  genre,  you  should  check  out  this  recording.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Gratum  Inferno"  "Satanic  Dimensions"  and  "Left  Hand  Wrath".  RECOMMENDED  BUY.
