HERE COMES A INTIE WITH NELSON FROM NEW YORK AGAINST THE BELZEBU. BY THE WAY THEY CHANGE THE MONIKER,NOW ARE NEW YORK AGAINST THE BRUKUTUS.
1-Hello Nelson,what's up?
Well, we're recording our new cd, it will be a
double cd with 140 songs. wait for this materpiece of
crust/grind/noise!!! It will be out by April 2000.
You'll find new instruments there like percussion, key,
harmonica, flute and off course, guitars, bass, drums, extreme 4
different voices. (BORELLA from FDS, JEFFERSON from OLHO SECO,
PANCHO from ACAO DIRETA are playing with us in this
release).
2-Why you decide to play in NYAB?
I'm the first member of the band. I had an ideia
of a noisy/crust band who will talk about social problems, be
extreme in playing and a bit funny too. this is new york
against the brukutus.
3-Tell
us a little biography and how are the reaction for the first NYAB
releases?
We started in 94, me, marcos and wagner and
recorded split with purulence. Some time after Junior replaced
wagner and ana joined us. Ana and Paulo left us in 97 and
Murilo replaced paulo. Junior kick out in 98 and Alex
replaced him. . now we are: nelson, marcos, alex,
murilo and looking for another singer (female). our
discography is: SPLIT EP/purulence, split ep/ final exit
split ep/parental advisory (out in 2000) CDS: are you ready for
noise ? / stunt / bateria e baixaria / 3way with agathocles,
irritate and nyab / v/a 100 união / lp e foi concedido.... / é
o fim 2.1 new cd. some
songs in tapes / noise for deaf I and II, etc... The
reaction was good. it was the first grindnoise cd released in
brazil. Like any new thing in the
life, we
were censured, but ""only the strong will
survive"" and we still strong now.
4-How
be release the first CD "ARE YOU READY FOR NOISE ?"?
we just entered in
studio and recorded some new songs and got some shows and
rehersals and putting together in a cd, to show our fans energy
of shows and new songs. Just it.
5-The
band have some problems with change in line-up,tell us this
problems.
i had some problems in past, but now its ok
! People going away, people coming up, this is normal for
any band.. 6-What were the bands that influenced you and
what your faves bands today.
band influenced me and still my faves are:
DISCHARGE, ENT, HERESY, SLAYER, ROT, MINISTRY, CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER,
SORE THROAT, ANAL CUNT, CARCASS, AND OFF COURSE NAPALM
DEATH (OLD) !!!!
7-What
the problems in underground and how beat then?
PROBLEMS CAN BE BEATEN BY INTELLIGENCE, NOT BY
IGNORANCE. ANY PROBLEM HAVE PACIFIC SOLUTION. THINK ABOUT
AND ACT !!! THIS IS MY MESSAGE..
8-Can you introduce the second
CD "STUNT"?
I DID THIS CD LIKE A TRIBUTE TO NAPALM DEATH, THE
BEST GRINDCORE BAND IN THE WORLD. SCUM ALBUM DID 10 YEARS 2
IN 98, AND IT WAS A RE-VISITATION OF SCUM'NAPALM DEATH BY NEW
YORK AGAINST THE BRUKUTUS. IT WAS BRILLIANT, MAINLY BY
IDEIA AND PHOTOS, GRAPHIC STUFF ! I DID IT LIKE A VINIL RED ALBUM
ALSO (500 COPIES).
9-Why
lyrics are some in english and others are in portuguese?
BECAUSE SOME LYRICS ARE TALKING ABOUT BRAZILIAN
PROBLEMS AND ITS STRANGE TO TALK ABOUT INTERNAL BRAZILIAN
PROBLEMS IN ENGLISH, SO WE DECIDED TO TALK MORE IN PORTUGUESE
LANGUAGE TO BRAZILIAN PEOPLE UNDERSTANDING WHAT WE ARE TALKING
ABOUT. SOME LYRICS ARE INTERNATION TOPICS, SO, WE DID IN
ENGLISH.
10-You can describe the NYAB sound?
GRIND/CRUST/NOISE
WITH HUMOR AND PROTEST !!
11-Tell us about your two last
CD's: "Bateria e Baixaria"and "NYAB/AGATHOCLES/IRRITATE 3 WAY
CD".
BATERIA E BAIXARIA
WAS RELEASES BY ME(ON DRUMS/VOCALS) AND ALEX (BASS/VOCALS). IT
WOULDN'T TO BE A CD, BUT WHEN I HEARD THE TAPE (MONTHS AFTER
RELEASE), I DECIDED TO PUT IT ON CD, BECAUSE IT CONTAINS SO MANY
HUMOR... ABOUT 3WAY CD, SAMI FROM IRRITATE(WHO LIKE VERY
MUCH N.Y.A.B.), ASK US TO MAKE A CD WITH HIS BAND, US AND
AGATHOCLES. WE JUST SAID: Y-E-S AND RELEASED NEW STUFF !!
THIS IS ALL !!
12-What you
think about gore stuffs and black metal?
I LISTEN SOME BANDS OF GOREGRIND AND BLACK METAL.
SOME ABDNAS I THINK ARE HONEST, BUT I DONT CARE ABOUT IT, EACH
PEOPLE THINK DIFFERENT. I THINK ITS NO PROBLEMS YOU ENJOY BLACK
METAL OR GORE STUFF. I DONT LIKE SO MUCH, BUT EACH PERSON IS FREE
TO MAKE ANYTHING.
13-What the future plans and next
releases?
PUT OUT THE NEW DOUBLE CD WITH 140 SONGS CALLED
"É O FIM !!! 2.1"' (THIS IS
THE END!!! 2.1). AND ANOTHER NEW CD TILL THE END OF THIS
YEAR (PROBABLY A DOUBLE CD AGAIN). we are planning to make a tour
in europe at the end of 2000 or in may 2001. it'll be fucking
GREAT !!!!!!
14-How you feel when play in gigs and how are
the reaction of people in NYAB gigs?
Each people reaction is different. Some
understand our humor and protest, but some think that the band is
