Inactive Messiah
Interview by Negru (October 2004 - web only!).




Hi there! How are the things going on over there?
Everything fine, we're ready for live performances. Actually in half an hour we have a rehearshall.

Can you present us a bit your band, the person that make it... What would you say are the things that make you different? How would you describe your music?
The band is made by Lefteris (Bass) and Katerina (Drums). We are five members  now 'cause our keyboard player is joined the army and he will get back after  that. We have a new member, a new guitarist "Thanos". As about the things  that make us different. We're trying to compose good music and to have our own sound. Our music is Agresive and the lyrics are for real things not imaginations.

Are you ready for the Romanian tour? What kind of surprises are you planning for us this time?
Yes we're ready. We'll try to have a cool stage show.

You played live quite a lot... do you feel confortable on the scence? Can you share with us some memorable moment you experienced over the years at the concerts?
Yeah the scene is familiar to us but we're always careful 'cause of some  things are unexpectable. Once there was no carpet or stuff for the drums and we  were to catch the set 'cause it's moving by self. It was our 3rd live so we were kind of anxious, you know.

This will be your third experience in Romania... do you like it here? What's the most striking difference between your country and ours?
Romania is a great country and we have to thank you 'cause you're the first
person called us to Romania. The audience is very cool up there and the
drivers are drive carefully for sure hahahaha...

Why thing chance from Womb Of Maggots to Inactive Messiah? Was something due to your new contract with Black Lotus Records?
We were thinking about changing our name a long time ago. It was a nice opportunity for us to do it now that we're make a deal with a big company Black Lotus. Chriss Caffery from Savatage, Infernal Magesty and other great names are in there now. So we thought that this is the right moment.

Can you tell us more about the contract? When will you release the first album with them? And what can you tell us about it?
The release date is scheduled for November and the mixing and mastering was  made at Finnvox studios with T.T. Oksala (Tiamat, Him). Our contract is for two (2) albums.

I guess that's all for the moment... A last word for the Romanian metalheads?
Support your bands. You have great bands there as Negura Budget, Taine,  Indian Fall. We're waiting to see you all...
