THE MAGNUM FORCE INTERVIEW



magnum force is a powerful band.ive never seen them live,but from footage and the records ive heard,it seems as if that is where they are in their prime.each song is heavy in delivery of both music,but also lyrically.topics never stray far from hateful,hurt and angered lyrics of persecution,suicidal thoughts and self loathing.the music matches the brutality with sheer speed but also intensity in ever inch of the record.this interview was done with the bands frontman danny.enjoy.


36th Chamber Of Thrash: when did magnum force form?
Danny Johnson:MF formed in 09. I wanted to start a fast hardcore band so I asked a couple if friends and we been playing every since

36th:what are some of your influences lyrically?
D:My influences lyrically are gay issues and just shit I hate.



36th:favorite venues to play in az?
d:This is a tough one I guess I would have to say The Boneyard it's my friend's house we play in his room it's always a good time

36th:the split with sex prisoner and acxdc is tight,how long did it take you guys to record those tracks?
d:I think it only took us a couple of days to record the tracks we recorded the drums, guitars and bass in one session then I did vocals later.

36th:you have alot of hatred in your lyrics.does singing for the band have a cathartic effect for you?
d:I hate saying this but it like a release for me. I have so much built up anger. My childhood sucked I had some really awful shit happen to me. I wish I could kill the fucker who hurt me. That's why the shit I write is pretty much always hateful.

36th:what are your top 5 records youre spinning right now?
D:1. Goosebumps - I Hate My Body EP
2. Gag - Skimask '95 EP
3. A$AP Rocky - LONG.LIVE.A$AP
4. Masshysteri - Var Del Av Stan LP
5. Antwon - In Dark Denim

FINAL DRAFT WEST WORLD ORDER REVIEW

Final Draft are one of those bands that dont put out records that are sub par with previous releases,nor full of filler.They are known for always delivering the most sonically brutal records they can produce in the best way possible.Many expected that the follow up to 2008's s/t 7" to be sub par to the magnitude of rad achieved by the previous record.so when this record was finally released,it was kept away from the internet
and was kept under wraps in a way alot of records these days dont (with the obvious exception being TO THE POINT).i finally was given the opportunity to listen when their guitarist,jose,posted up that he FINALLY had vinyl copies of the much talked about and ever elusive jams,i jumped at the opportunity and scored hard.the new Lp,in my personal opinion,outdoes the previous effort of the band.the blasts are faster,the breakdowns gnarlier and the vocals harsher than ever.its a throwback to the AxRxM split but more   destructive x10.all the songs are super emotional and the lyrics actually mean something ,a breath of fresh air in a genre where talking about star wars or actors is coveted.everything about this record reeks of classic Inglewood Powerviolence. definently never to be fucked up,Final Draft continue on with their unpredjudiced IWHC assault.







BEATRIZ CARNICERO INTERVIEW



Beatriz Carnicero are a powerviolence band from Montevideo,Uruguay.They pick where Charles Bronson left off with a total youth crew sound while still remaining as dissonant as west coast bands like crossed out or infest.while they are a new band,they have the songwriting skills of bands 3 times their age.their debut tape No Reces (Opaqus rex.) is an absolute killer with tracks ranging from fast as fuck pv to 90's death metal grooves while not having one song exceeding over a minute.I emailed them last year and was contacted by their guitarist Dario.while it took a while to finally obtain(and eventually post),this is one of my favorite interviews ive conducted yet.enjoy.
-chris



36th chamber of thrash:When/How was BC formed?

 Dario:Beatriz Carnicero started in early 2010. We were not sure of what style we were going to play, but we wanted to play. Nico (bass) and I  (DarĂ­o, guitar) had tried to do something a long time ago, but never made concrete issues or ever played outside our rehearsal. We used to listen to a lot of music but with preference for extreme genres like death metal and grindcore. Marcelo had never played drums in a band, didn't even have drums. He listened punk and learned to play in the rehearsals. This combination of influences led us to powerviolence and some bands which are influential for us ...

36th:What are some of your infulences as a band?

dario: Bands like Infest, Hellnation, are perhaps the most influential in defining our style ... But somehow we also owe something to Ratos de Porao, DRI, Dead Kennedys, Minor Threat, Napalm Death, Magrudergrind,and even Cannibal Corpse and Obituary,  though that´s less obvious.

 36th:what are some influences for you as a lyricist?

illegal grindcore at its finest.
dario: We haven`t worked much on the lyrics. The first year we were and instrumental band. We were looking for a vocalist, could not play and scream at the same time. During the first half of 2011 Christian took care of the vocals and Marcelo started screaming too. But there was not much lyrical work. Most of the songs had no lyrics until recording
NO RECES, in mid-2012.

36th:what are some good local grind bands from uruguay?

 Dario:As far as I know, there are not many grindcore bands in Uruguay. We usually play with punk and hardcore bands, which ultimately we are too.

36th: what are your plans as a band for the future?

dario: The purpose is always to play, not only in gigs, but also to get together and play, to improvise, to make new tunes. And then recording, and continue editing together with bands we like ... Maybe we will travel a bit more in the future. We have not played outside the country. We look forward to playing with friends from Argentina and Brazil. It is the most feasible for the near future.

36th: thanks for the interview,homeslice.

dario: Thanks for listening and writing to us. Greetings!

BASTARD NOISE-THE PROGRESSION OF SICKNESS 10"

Here on 36th there are a few things truly cherished to us.those being 1)feedback 2)The Big Lebowski and of course 3) Bastard Noise/MITB.so when i was finally able to obtain this 2012 masterpiece,i was thrilled.The two tracks,one on each side, showcase the brutality of Eric Wood's musical genius and virtuoso on bass as well as the dissonance of the unique noise the bastard noise blends into its sound.Aimee Artz vocals as the perfect addition to the bastard noise.the variation between the vocals of Artz and Wood create a new layer to the music that they did not before.producer micheal rozan mixed this album so perfectly that every element,distorted note,buzz of noise and shrill scream is of the highest quality of recording.the addition of drummer Jesse Appelhans(formerly of san diego noise group Upsilon Acrux) is well adjusted and perfect for the band after the departure of longtime drummer Joel Connell.Deep Six records stated it the best on their website-"The Progression of Sickness will prove to all skull servants that the evolution of THE SKULL is a fury to behold"

If i had gotten this release earlier ,it would've very easily battled sordo for my top pick of 2012

5 stars.

the return of the socal powerviolence legends was highly anticipated and buzzed about around the community as soon as it was revealed they were writing.this shit is an absolute banger.6 tracks of PV done the way only these guys can.all tthe songs on here are sick,but my personal favorite was "fuck it dood...lets go bowling".good shit.

http://beatrizcarnicero.bandcamp.com/

8) Red Hands-Bridge
my homies from orange county,highly underated and maddogged by haters always.but the fact remains their one of the best fucking bands to come out of this shithole.the blasts are tight,the songs strong and heavy and the lyrics extremely personal.definently my favorite out of orange county this year.
red hands mediafire linkage.

2)-Tatical Precision Violence-Sordo
from my homies eduado(DIY NOISE) and gerry carrillo from oxnard,this bass/drum pv band is already a legendary band in california.their form of powerviolence is groovy,catchy and fucking pummelling when its fast.this shit gets spun twice a day in the chamber when we get done jamming.so fucking righteous,well done gentlemen.http://primeeggsamplerecords.bandcamp.com/album/tactical-precision-violence

OBACHA-Interview





Obacha are canada's finest in fastcore.fast,pissed and unrelenting.they are my good homies and i even got to play a few shows with them on their southern californian tour.if youre sleeping on this shit,youre fucking up hard.i sat down in the bunker with them to discuss star wars,mincecore,border patrol and wrecking chets.

36th:how did obacha come to form?
Tommy: Collin called me up one day and was like "hey wanna come start a fastcore band? i have 2 songs written". So of course I drive up to his house to jam them, Collin was playing guitar and I was playing drums and we learned the songs. Then we were jamming a week later and Graham showed up so we showed him the songs and he just grabbed a mic and said "I'm fucking in this band". Shortly after that we asked my cousin Evan to play drums so I moved to guitar and Collin moved to bass. Evan quit in January after playing with us for a year and a half so Graham moved to drums and that's the lineup we're at now. We played our first show as a 3 piece in March 2012 and started in May 2010.



                                        you can see lil ol' me in this video! such a gnarly show.


where did the name originate?
Collin was the first one to say it. It was like "you betcha" but spelled all fucked. We would get beers after jam and have endless discussions on how we should spell it, like hours long, every time, and never reached a conclusion so when our first show came I was making the flyer and just spelled it OBACHA. We figured it was a shitty enough name that it couldn't possibly be taken but sure enough it actually is by some techno hip hop guy from I don't fucking know where. Props to ORDSTRO for also having a name that's not even a proper word.

what are some of your most memroble moments in the band?
So many. Evan puking all over my dads van on a trip to Alberta, getting super duper drunk with TOTES BRUTE first night into tour (Richie KILLS at van jumps), meeting Jim Layhee on the ferry to GRINDLANDIA, Collin taking us to the wrong venue through a blizzard, hanging out with Bubb Rubb in Oakland, "I smoked it on accident fool", cramming us and SKUFF into my small ass truck for 4 days, our first Vancouver show where people were smashing each other really badly, playing with STILLBIRTH in Squamish and I got bashed in the face. Tons more. Touring fucking rules cause you get to see dumb shit you would never see otherwise. Plus you're almost always playing in the sketchiest part of any town so that's where all the real characters are.

what do you have planned next release wise?
We have a split ep with CHETWRECKER from Oakland at the plant, we had cassettes of it for tour but we sold out of them in like 5 shows. Pretty quick here we're recording for a split cassette with SLAVE from Alabama (who rule really hard) and then after that we're recording for a split ep with ORDSTRO from San Fransisco(who also rule hard) that we've had planned for a really long time. Then sometime we're doing a 4 way split 7' called "FAST FRIENDS" with ARCHAGATHUS, VIOLENT GORGE and SHOOTING SPREE. 9 dumbasses, 4 bands. Some of my friends keep bugging me to write an LP, but I don't really see that happening any time soon as a "long song" clocks in at about 35 seconds these days.

how did cali treat you on your tour?
Very well, those we're some of the best shows I've ever played and we met so many rad as fuck people. Also, we smoked weed with TWO guys that used to play in LACK OF INTEREST so I was really happy about that one. Everyone just smokes weed there nonstop it rules and we played with tons of great bands. The scene in Canada is good for fastcore and powerviolence but SO many more people go to shows there, especially in southern California where all the shows are at least 9 bands and cost $2. THANKS CALI!

when you coming back!? haha
As soon as we can. Graham has to get another passport cause he lost his on the first night of tour drunk as fuck in Seattle (we're real winners) and I should probably do some maintenance to the $400 van so, after that we're good to go. Hopefully the spring with CHETWRECKER, we're working on the where/when/how thing for that right now.  I wish the border didn't suck so bad getting into America looking like a greasy piece of shit grinder at 7a.m. on a monday sleep deprived and hungover with a very poorly planned stupid story that you're camping in California and aren't sure where yet. If it weren't for that we'd come down and play all the time.

finally,you're favorite chewbacca scene in star wars.
Any scene where he's freaking out and shouting off jibberish as loud as he can. That dude is CLEARLY down with powerviolence.
