Parmi ces poncifs on ne s&rsquo;attend effectivement pas \u00e0 trouver un groupe qui marche sur les plates-bandes d&rsquo;Enforcer, Stallion, Ambush et Skull Fist. Attention groupe prometteur!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"> <strong>1- D&rsquo;o\u00f9 vous est venue l&rsquo;id\u00e9e du nom du groupe, l&rsquo;avez-vous r\u00e9fl\u00e9chit ou est-ce sorti comme cela?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio : Bonjour KAOSGUARDS, merci pour l&rsquo;interview. C&rsquo;est notre premi\u00e8re interview pour un magazine fran\u00e7ais, donc c&rsquo;est plut\u00f4t cool pour nous. Nous sommes LIQUID STEEL, un groupe de Heavy Metal traditionnel de l&rsquo;ouest de l&rsquo;Autriche et nous sommes actifs depuis 2009. Le nom vient de notre ancien batteur, qui l&rsquo;a sugg\u00e9r\u00e9 et nous avons \u00e9crit la chanson \u00ab\u00a0Liquid Steel\u00a0\u00bb par la suite. La chanson est \u00e9videmment un hommage \u00e0 l&rsquo;un de mes films pr\u00e9f\u00e9r\u00e9s &#8211; \u00ab\u00a0Terminator\u00a0\u00bb ou la machine LIQUID STEEL si vous voulez.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2- Pourquoi vouliez-vous jouer ce genre de musique?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio : Nous l&rsquo;aimons tous. Aussi simple que cela. Nous sommes fiers d&rsquo;\u00eatrer un groupe de Heavy Metal traditionnel parce que nous voulons porter le flambeau. Tous nos groupes pr\u00e9f\u00e9r\u00e9s datent des ann\u00e9es 80, il est donc logique que nous fassions ce que nous faisons. Il n&rsquo;y a pas beaucoup de groupes qui jouent ce genre l\u00e0 d&rsquo;o\u00f9 nous venons de toute fa\u00e7on. Les groupes sont un peu plus extr\u00eames ici, mais cela n&rsquo;a pas d&rsquo;importance. Nous nous soutenons tous et allons voir d&rsquo;autres groupes jouer en live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3- Vous connaissiez-vous avant la formation du groupe?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio : Je connaissais Julle et Ferdl avant et je savais que Martin pouvait jouer de la batterie. Notre bassiste Monte, nous a rejoint par la suite. Julle jouait dans un groupe local appel\u00e9 Tone et Ferdl et moi jouions ensemble dans un groupe de reprises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">4- <strong>Chaque groupe pr\u00e9f\u00e9r\u00e9 des membres du groupe?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio : Je ne peux pas parler pour tous les autres membres mais \u00e9videmment Iron Maiden, Judas Priest et Metallica sont nos parrains. Il y a une tonne de nouveaux groupes que nous aimons tous aussi. Enforcer, Stallion, Ambush et bien s\u00fbr Skull Fist ne sont que quelques-uns d&rsquo;entre eux.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>5- Qui ou qu&rsquo;est-ce qui t&rsquo;inspire pour \u00e9crire des chansons?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio : C&rsquo;est tr\u00e8s diff\u00e9rent \u00e0 chaque fois que vous \u00e9crivez une chanson. Pour moi en tant que parolier, cela peut \u00eatre une ligne que je rattrape quelque part, comme \u00ab\u00a0Kingdom of Silence\u00a0\u00bb qui fait r\u00e9f\u00e9rence \u00e0 un mouvement artistique en Syrie o\u00f9 artistes et intellectuels ont lib\u00e9r\u00e9 une cr\u00e9ativit\u00e9 artistique remarquable comme forme de protestation non-violente contre leur gouvernement. Que leurs voix soient entendues dans le monde entier. Sur cet album, je suis particuli\u00e8rement fier de la chanson titre \u00ab\u00a0Mountains of Madness\u00a0\u00bb qui est inspir\u00e9e du livre du m\u00eame nom de H.P. Lovecraft. \u00ab\u00a0Victim of the Night\u00a0\u00bb est inspir\u00e9 d&rsquo;une citation que j&rsquo;ai lue quelque part : \u00ab\u00a0Toute croissance est un saut dans le noir, un acte spontan\u00e9 non pr\u00e9m\u00e9dit\u00e9 sans le b\u00e9n\u00e9fice de l&rsquo;exp\u00e9rience.\u00a0\u00bb (Henry Miller) Cela signifie que vous ne pouvez \u00e9voluer en tant que personne que lorsque vous essayez de nouvelles choses. De temps en temps, vous devriez sauter dans l&rsquo;inconnu pour voir o\u00f9 vous allez atterrir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>6- O\u00f9 \u00e9tait votre dernier concert?<\/strong><br>Fabio : Nous avons jou\u00e9 au merveilleux \u00ab\u00a0Hard &amp; Heavy\u00a0\u00bb dans l&rsquo;ouest de l&rsquo;Autriche et nous nous sommes vraiment \u00e9clat\u00e9s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>7-<\/strong> <strong>O\u00f9 aimeriez-vous jouer?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio : Personnellement, j&rsquo;adorerais jouer au Japon ou en Am\u00e9rique du Sud, juste parce que c&rsquo;est \u00ab\u00a0exotique\u00a0\u00bb pour nous. Mais pour \u00eatre tout \u00e0 fait honn\u00eate, nous adorons jouer. O\u00f9 que ce soit. Jouer dans un pays \u00e9tranger est \u00e9videmment tr\u00e8s sp\u00e9cial \u00e0 chaque fois et nous avons eu de la chance \u00e0 cet \u00e9gard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>8- L&rsquo;un d&rsquo;entre vous a-t-il d\u00e9j\u00e0 souffert du trac ? Une astuce pour les d\u00e9butants sur la fa\u00e7on de d&rsquo;\u00e9viter cela?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio : C&rsquo;est une bonne question. Cela peut parfois devenir un peu angoissant, vous savez. Je ne peux pas parler pour les autres gars, mais g\u00e9n\u00e9ralement, vous jouer et faites ce que vous avez \u00e0 faire. Pour moi, la nervosit\u00e9 dispara\u00eet g\u00e9n\u00e9ralement d\u00e8s la premi\u00e8re chanson. Lorsque l&rsquo;adr\u00e9naline commence \u00e0 monter et que les gens r\u00e9agissent, c&rsquo;est la meilleure sensation possible. Ce que vous devez garder \u00e0 l&rsquo;esprit, c&rsquo;est que les gens veulent vraiment que vous soyez bon. Ils veulent que vous passiez un bon moment sur sc\u00e8ne, afin qu&rsquo;ils puissent profiter du spectacle. Personne ne veut vous voir \u00e9chouer. Donc, le mieux est probablement d&rsquo;\u00eatre vous-m\u00eame, de ne pas pr\u00e9tendre \u00eatre quelqu&rsquo;un que vous n&rsquo;\u00eates pas et de toujours y akker \u00e0 fond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>9- Quels groupes vous ont le plus inspir\u00e9?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio : Trop pour les mentionner \u00e0 de nombreux niveaux diff\u00e9rents. Je vais essayer d&rsquo;en choisir quelques-uns. Iron Maiden &#8211; de toutes les mani\u00e8res possibles. Musicalement, lyriquement et personnellement, ils sont toujours les meilleurs dans ce qu&rsquo;ils font. Les Ramones &#8211; pour leur arrogance, la simplicit\u00e9 et la salet\u00e9. Phil Lynott en tant que parolier. C&rsquo;\u00e9tait un po\u00e8te et l&rsquo;un des gars les plus cool du Rock n&rsquo;Roll. Je pourrais dire la m\u00eame chose \u00e0 propos de Lemmy aussi\u2026 Ronnie James Dio en tant que chanteur, auteur-compositeur et interpr\u00e8te. J&rsquo;ai la chance d&rsquo;avoir pu le voir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>10- Quelle est la chose la plus \u00e9trange qu&rsquo;un fan vous ait jamais demand\u00e9 ?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio : C&rsquo;est amusant que tu en parles. Il ne se passe pas beaucoup de choses \u00e9tranges, car nous sommes encore une formation \u00ab\u00a0underground\u00a0\u00bb. Ce qui nous paraissait vraiment bizarre \u00e0 l&rsquo;\u00e9poque ; nous \u00e9tions en visiteurs pour un petit festival underground en Allemagne et il y avait un gars qui nous a reconnu et a demand\u00e9 un autographe. Il nous a emmen\u00e9s dans sa voiture et a sorti ces gigantesques affiches grandeur nature de chaque membre du groupe pour les faire signer. Nous \u00e9tions un peu perplexes pour \u00eatre honn\u00eates parce que nous n&rsquo;avons pas jou\u00e9 ce jour-l\u00e0 et il y avait ce m\u00e9ga fan qui voulait que ces affiches soient sign\u00e9es. Une exp\u00e9rience vraiment \u00e9trange!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>11- Que pensez-vous de vos fans ?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio : Eh bien, qu&rsquo;est-ce que je peux dire. Nous les aimons. C&rsquo;est notre troisi\u00e8me album et les gens nous soutiennent. Si personne n&rsquo;avait achet\u00e9 notre album, je ne suis pas s\u00fbr que nous en aurions fait un autre. Nous sommes donc tr\u00e8s heureux de recevoir ce soutien du monde entier. Les gens nous \u00e9crivent des Philippines et de tous ces endroits incroyables et nous disent \u00e0 quel point ils aiment notre disque. Incroyable vraiment!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>12- LIQUID STEEL \u00ab\u00a0live\u00a0\u00bb en France, c&rsquo;est possible?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio : Je vais citer Wayne\u2019s World ici : \u00ab Si vous les booker, ils viendront \u00bb. \u00c9videmment, nous adorerions jouer en France. Esp\u00e9rons que cela arrivera un jour. Croisons les doigts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>13- Quelque chose \u00e0 ajouter?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio : Merci beaucoup pour votre soutien ! Merci beaucoup pour l&rsquo;interview. Lecteurs de Kaosguards restez rock! Continuez \u00e0 soutenir la bonne musique, restez vrai et n&rsquo;arr\u00eatez pas de r\u00eaver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ecoutez des extraits <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/liquidsteelofficial\/videos\">ici<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">English version <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"50\" height=\"31\" class=\"wp-image-977\" style=\"width: 50px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kaosguards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/union-jack.png\" alt=\"union jack\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>1- Where did you get the idea for the band name, you planned it or came out just like that?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio: Hello Kaosguards- thank you for the interview. This is our first time interview for a French magazine- so, that\u2019s pretty cool for us. We are Liquid Steel a traditional Heavy Metal band from western Austria and we\u2019ve been active since 2009. The name came from our former drummer, who suggested it and we wrote the song Liquid Steel afterwards. The song is obviously a tribute to one of my favourite movies- \u201cTerminator\u201d or the machine Liquid Steel if you like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2- Why did you want to play this genre?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio: We all love it. Simple as that. We take pride in calling us a traditional Heavy Metal band because we want to carry the torch. All our favourite bands are from the 80s, so it kind of makes sense that we do what we do. There are not many bands who play this genre where we come from anyway. Bands are kind of more extreme down here but it doesn\u2019t matter. We all support each other and go to see other bands play live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3- Did you know each other before the band was formed?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio: I did know Julle and Ferdl before and I knew that Martin could play the drums. Our bassist Monte, joined afterwards. Julle used to play in a local band called \u201cTone\u201d and Ferdl and I used to play in a covers band together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>4- Each band member favourite band?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio: I can\u2019t speak for all the other members but obviously Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and Metallica are the godfathers for us. There\u2019s a ton of new bands we all love too. Enforcer, Stallion, Ambush and of course Skull Fist just being a few of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>5- Who or what inspires you to write songs?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio: That\u2019s very different every time you write a song. For me as a lyricist, that can be a line that I catch up somewhere, like \u201cKingdom of Silence\u201d which refers to an artistic movement in Syria where artists and intellectuals have released remarkable artistic creativity as a form of nonviolent protest against their government. Let their voices be heard all over the world. On this album I am particularly proud of the title track \u201cMountains of Madness\u201d which is inspired by the book of the same name by H.P. Lovecraft. \u201cVictim of the Night\u201d is inspired by a quote I read somewhere: \u201cAll growth is a leap in the dark, a spontaneous unpremeditated act without the benefit of experience.\u201d (Henry Miller) Meaning that you can only evolve as a person when you try out new things. Every now and then you should jump into the unknown to see where you\u2019re gonna land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>6- Where was your last gig?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio: We played at the wonderful \u201cHard &amp; Heavy\u201d in western Austria last weekend and we had an absolute blast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>7- Where would you like to act?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio: Personally, I would love to play Japan or South America, just because it\u2019s so exotic to us. But to be quite honest, we just love playing. Wherever it is. Playing a foreign country obviously is very special each time and we\u2019ve been fortunate in that regard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>8- Any of you has ever suffered from stage fright? Any tip for beginners on how to beat that?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio: That\u2019s a good question. It can get a bit nerve wrecking at times, you know. I can\u2019t speak for the other guys, but usually you just go out and do whatever you have to do. For me, the nervousness usually disappears within the first song or so. When the adrenaline starts to flow and people react that\u2019s the best possible feeling ever. What you have to keep in mind is that people actually want you to be good. They want you to have a good time on stage, so that they can enjoy the show. Nobody wants to see you fail. So, the best is probably, be yourself, don\u2019t pretend to be somebody you\u2019re not and always practise enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>9- What bands have inspired you the most?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio: Too many to mention on many different levels. I\u2019ll try and pick out a few. Iron Maiden- in every possible way. Musically, lyrically and personally they are still the best at what they do. The Ramones- for their snottiness, the simplicity and the dirt. Phil Lynott as a lyricist. He was a poet and one of the coolest guys in Rock n\u2019Roll. I could say the same thing about Lemmy too\u2026 Ronnie James Dio as a singer, songwriter and performer. I am fortunate to have been able to see him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>10- What&rsquo;s the weirdest thing a fan has ever asked you for?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio: It\u2019s fun that you mention it. Not a lot of weird things happen, because we\u2019re still pretty much underground. What really seemed weird at the time to us; we were visitors for a small underground festival in Germany and there was one guy who recognized us and asked for an autograph. He took us to his car and pulled out those gigantic life-sized posters of each band member to get them signed. We were a bit puzzled to be honest because we didn\u2019t perform that day and there was this mega fan who wanted those self-made posters signed. An humbling experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>11- What do you think of your fans?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio: Well, what can I say. We love \u2018em. This is our third full-length album and people support us. If nobody had bought our album I\u2019m not sure we would\u2019ve done another one. So, we\u2019re really glad we get this support from all around the world. People write us from the Philippines and all these amazing places and tell us how much they love our record. Amazing really.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>12- LIQUID STEEL \u00ab\u00a0live\u00a0\u00bb in France, it&rsquo;s possible?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio: I\u2019m gonna quote Wayne\u2019s World here: \u201cIf you book them, they will come\u201d. Obviously, we would love to play France. Hopefully it will happen one day. Let\u2019s keep fingers crossed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>13- Something add?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabio: Merci beaucoup for your support! Thanks a lot for the interview. Kaosguards you guys rock! Keep supporting good music, keep it real and don\u2019t stop dreaming.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ah l&rsquo;Autriche!
