Interview w/ Austin from Embryonic Devourment (July 2006)
1. How and when did Embryonic Devourment begin?
Me (Austin), Luke and Lauren had a project along time ago called Ye Old Skabbard. When i left to focus on my other bands ( CIRIBUS and MUMMIFICATION ) Lauren and Luke came up with a shitload of new material. They decided that the style was so different from what they were normally doing that they had to change the name too. The name ended up being EMBRYONIC DEVOURMENT.
2. Have any of you been in any previous bands? Are any of you involved with any other bands/projects?
I've played in PUKE, CIRIBUS, MUMMIFICATION, GLOB, INFEST & CORRUPT, and DEMIZE to name a few. E.D. is Laurens first band and Luke played in various Punk/ rock jam bands before E.D.
3. What are your main influences?
Gorguts, Morbid Angel, Spastic Ink, Decrepit Birth, Severed Savior, Sleep Terror, Vile, Al Dimeola, Spawn of Possession, Nile, Ravi Shankar, and other odd forms of music.
4. The "Beheaded By Volition" EP is getting pretty good reviews from what I've seen. Are you planning on releasing a full-length anytime soon?
Yes, we plan to record in December @ Trident Studios with Juan Urteaga of VILE. He is a great engineer and knows what we strive for musically. The new release will either be called "Blade Enforced Buthchery" or "The Fear Of Reality Exceeds Fantasy". It will have over 8 new tracks for sure.
5. How would you describe Embryonic Devourment's sound? How would you describe your live show?
I would describe us as a sort of Picasso among other artists. Our music is like taking puzzle pieces that don't fit and cramming them into a fucked up shape or picture. Our live show is pretty intense i guess from what people tell me.
6. Are you guys planning a tour in the near future?
Yes, in 2007 we want to tour south america followed by a U.S. tour. It will be with ROTTENNESS from Mexico.
7. What bands are your favorite to play shows with?
Our bros in Severed Savior, Sleep Terror, Meatshits, Asesino, Truculence, Saprophagous, Deeds of Flresh, Mummification and Hellusinit.
8. If you could choose any 5 bands to tour with, who would you pick? Severed Savior, Asesino, Spawn of Possession, Opeth, and Gorguts.
9. Besides playing killer tunes, what do you guys do for fun?
Drink beer, Smoke, Swimming, Fucking, Hallucinating, and Gore Dosin.
10. What can we expect from Embryonic Devourment in the future?
Lots of shows and new material for 2007 !!
11. Any final comments?
