I write because, I want people to see what I see myself in the music, and that readers have a complete feeling of reading my reviews, columns and so on, I want readers who are not familiar themselves with metal world to understand that metal is a superior and quality music, as well as those who listen to metal to throw a complete atmosphere of metal, and that among other things,
inprove my texts, and to make them more interesting and special, as well as for metalheads, and for those entering the world of metal. My favorite genre og metsl is black metal. These genre is the only genre that can convey the truth about evil and darkness, in the right way as the only alarm consciousness through the influence of Satanism, the evil and everything else. My main goal is to attract people to metal music, and that people get better information about metal music. This blog will bring you that. Of course I’ll always wish that the readers to have a properly understanding of the music, and to accept it.

Rob The Witch Necronomicon
39
Its about how human beings should wake up and open their eyes to see that we are one with everything 1. When The Necronomicon started, and how the band was created? That’s a really long story so i ll try to make a short version here. Let say that i started the band in 1988 in my home region in the north(Saguenay) , i wanted to do something that was my own and not like all musicians in the region were doing , meaning playing cover songs from Metallica & co. to have contract to play in bars, It was a really hard time to get musician to start something original. We got into playing shows in 1990 after recording a self rehearsal tape to help us to promote the band . After been invited to do a series of shows a bit everywhere in the province here, we recorded our first demo tape (Morbid Ritual) in the winter 1991 and released it in 1992 independently. From that point , we sold 3000 copies without any promotion or support from any label, just by playing concerts around our province and getting interviews in small underground fans zines. By the end of 1993 we moved the band to Montreal where since we are living, after some time to re-install our personal life and finding the proper studio to work, we went to expend our routing to the entire country and later crossing borders and ocean to play everywhere we can. I am the only original member of the band.
2. What do you think of the progress of the band? Well it have been really hard for us compare to a lot of artiste . I think its pretty hard for any Canadian band since we dont have the proper industry to push
twitter.com/SapronWood
the metal bands. I think than now Necronomicon is doing better than ever. But even so, if we were in a country where the industry is more preset it would be much easier. Its not be as fast as i would of like , but at least we are going forward with every year that pass .
3. Is Advent of Human God different for your other realises? Its pretty much in the same vein of what we have been doing since Pharaoh of Gods, i could even say since The Silver Key EP , but we have more the means now to accomplish what we want to do compared to back in the 90’s where technology and money also , was preventing us to push to the level we wanted. Beside that it always been the same focus and idea as to know where we are going with our music.
4. Your latest album, has a strong massage, What can you tell me about it? If i make it short, its about how human beings should wake up and open their eyes to see that we are one with everything. To reconnect ourselves with the great all and by doing so re take our rightful place in the creation in perfect balance with nature an also the energy that drive the entire universe to become gods that we really are.

5. How does the song The Fjord fit into the concept of the album?
7. Which bands inspired you to create music?
I doesn’t , its one of the exception. That song is about where i come from , the great northern fjord of Saguenay. I had the feeling to write about that for my people there and also for me and my drummer Rick, who come from there too.
Well at the start it was Celtic frost , Bathory , Venom but also other artist that are not metal at all. With time of course we went to develop our own thing, most of the time the music come by itself so i dont have to look too far . But when i need and if i want inspiration i listen to my own music , our previous records.
6. What do you think about todays metal scene? I’m not really aware of whats been going on these last 15 years or so, at one point i was not listening any metal for pretty much 7 to 8 years, when i do listen to metal its more vintage stuff from the 80’s. But it seem like music today became soulless and over technical, its like people are trying to prove who’s the biggest masturbator of them all. Music is supposed to be about passion and not technique. If it was so, Celtic frost would of never been a legend like they are.
8. There is a German trash metal band also called Necronomicon, Did that make problem to the band,and did the public compared you with this band,because of the same name? They tried to create legal problems i have been told, i dont know if its true, and i met them once , let says one of them was a jerk , the singer was a bitter men but i’m sure in another context he is probably a nice guy. It happened once or two that someone wrote to us saying change name , but we found out

it was directly connected to them. Also we have some problems to find a EU touring agency due to the fact that Necronomicon is a bunch of drunks creating problems supposedly ……we found out that was an error, they mixed up the bands, of course we received apologies but anyway.
fix our agency problem. Our previous agency is not doing Black/death metal anymore, so be a little more patient. Be sure visit us on Facebook and get “Avdvent of the Human God” here: http://shopusa.season-of-mist.com/necronomiconadvent-of-the-human-god-cd
9. What would you say to your fans, 10. What are your plans for the fuDo you have a plans for new concerts? ture?

or the begging of this colunm, I must say that the metal scene is divided. The thing about the underground metal bands, that never get a chance to show themeself’s properly, it was always like that since the biggening of metal itself, but where the famous bands always famous, there were underground too, they had the the passion about music, they loved what they were doing as a underground bands, but money changes all. In 21century there are so many underground bands, and there are a lot of famous bands, the problem here is that the same famous bands forget to be good, like Metallice, Megadeth, but Megadeath in some moments in their carrer, they have they sound and style of music as at the beginning of band, but they still can suprise you, but is it enough, in todays metal scene, when extreme famous bands are becoming copies of themeself’s, without creativity. It’s time for the new bands, for the new metal legacy, but there will be always a problem, every band is a sold out when they become famous, the fans of think they are awesome, they are the best, but no, there are even better bands.

amos metal bands is all about entertainment, not about music. They have there legions of fans, that will follow them forever, but is this the point, is music just a act or the perfomans, or is it just that thing that awakens the best in all of us.Underground bands are the fans themeself’s of metal like their fans too, they enjoy their music, and they want to drawn a specific group of people like them to listen to them. The point is where did the passion for real and awesome music went, is all just a show, and perfomans, is all about looks, but not music. Music will overcome everything the power of music is strong, that it can overcome everything.

nderground bands,Famous metal bands does it make the differens, we all love metal. The 80’s showned that music is just music, the metal in the 80’s was the same to all. There were no various genre of music like today, it was just fucking heavy metal. Metal music is the music of the gods, someone said long time ago. Metal is just pure awesome music, that brings people together, not dividing them. I think we all need to support metal us music, not looking at it, is this is underground of the commercial famous metal band. Hail the metal no metter what it is.
