Interview with Anto of Decrusted

 DECRUSTED

By: Corix Baluca



Y¡¦all! Motherfucks! What¡¦s up? How¡¦s life treating you? In this moment of time, do you consider life sucks? Or what?
ANTO [GUITAR]: YES CORIX, LIFE PRETTY MUCH SUCKS RIGHT NOW. IM HERE RELIEVING MYSELF IN THE COMFORT ROOM HAHAHA!!!! BOMBS AWAY!!!!!

Let¡¦s start things up about yourself? Could you pls. tell us a little something about your fucking self?
I CANT FIND THE OTHER ASSHOLES SO IM THE ONLY ONE TO ANSWER THIS INTIE. MY VIEWS/OPINIONS ARE ENTIRELY MINE AND MY OWN ALONE AND ILL MAKE IT SPECIFIC AND SIMPLE AS POSSIBLE. IM ANTO ON GUITARS, RICKY ON BASS, MICK ON DRUMS, AND sATHAN ON VOCALS. WE¡¦RE FROM THE COUNTRYSIDE, FROM ZAMBALES, THREE AND A HALF HOURS NORTHBOUND DRIVE AWAY FROM METRO MANILA, PHILIPPINESHITHOLE¡K

We can¡¦t deny the fact that you guys are musically inclined, Of cors! Stupid me! Hehe! When you were just in your teenage life, what kind of music you use to listen or you enjoyed listening?
I DON¡¦T HAVE ANY CONCEPT OF THE ¡§UNDERGROUND SCENE¡¨ BEFORE SO IT¡¦S POP MUSIC OF COURSE. MY EYES WERE OPENED WHEN I ATTENDED COLLEGE IN MANILA AND ACCIDENTALLY WENT ALONG ON A PUNK CONCERT WITH A FRIEND IN MAKATI, THAT WAS TEN YEARS AGO, AND THE CONCEPT OF THE D.I.Y. ETHIC IMPRESSED ME.

Decrusted is something new to the people, could you pls. tell us a little something about how the band formed? When? Where? And why you formed a band anyway?
OUR BANDNAME BEFORE WAS BEERBREAK, FORMED THREE YEARS AGO, AND WE HAVE RELEASED A 2005 DEMO ¡§THE BRUTALITY OF THE KILL¡¨¡K

Alright, I guess the readers now have more idea about you guys, how old are you when you were circumcised? Or are you guys are uncircumcised? Hehe! Seriously, before Decrusted, it was BEER BREAK, right? And you played crust/punk, why you change your name? Is it because you guys stop drinking beer? Are you guys SXE now? What can you say about the SXE movement?
WHY ARE YOU INTERESTED IN OUR DICKS HUH? I KNEW IT! I KNEW IT! HAHAHA!!! IM 100% SURE IM CIRCUMCISED, IM NOT SURE ABOUT THE OTHERS THOUGH GO SEE IT FOR YOUR PLEASURE HAHAHA!!! JUST KIDDING HEHEHE¡K ACTUALLY WE SHOULD HAVE CHANGED BEERBREAK TO DECRUSTED DURING THE RELEASE OF OUR 2005 DEMO. WE CHANGED IT NOW INTO DECRUSTED SO PEOPLE WOULD TAKE OUR MUSIC SERIOUSLY COZ BEERBREAK SOUNDED ¡§JUST-FOR-FUN¡¨ KIND OF THING¡K
WE¡¦RE NOT SXE NOR HAVE WE QUITTED DRINKING BEER. WE LOVE GETTING WASTED AND DRUNK AT TIMES BUT NOT OFTEN THOUGH¡K
ABOUT THE SXE MOVEMENT AND ITS CONCEPT WELL WE SALUTE THEM AND RESPECT THEIR BELIEF, SO THAT¡¦S IT.

Comparing Decrusted to Beer Break musically, it has a lot of changes when it comes to your music, Descrusted is more on metal influence than a punk, and how did this idea comes up? Are you guys tired of playing punk music?
DECRUSTED HAS ITS PUNK ROOTS EMBEDDED ON IT AND IS STILL THE FUNDAMENTAL FOUNDATION OF THE GROUP. THE METAL EVIDENT YOU¡¦RE SAYING IS THAT BECAUSE WE¡¦RE MORE INTO EXTREME MUSIC RIGHT NOW¡K

Actually, I was so surprised when you guys change you musical style, because I know and I have witness Anthony a.k.a Captain Antiox playing guitar and he was an awesome guitar player, technical guitar player to be exact. To Anthony, who are those guitar players that you really looked up?
HAHAHA!!! THANKS FOR THE COMPLIMENT ULDARICHO!... BUT HEY I DON¡¦T CONSIDER MYSELF ¡§TECHNICAL¡¨ I STILL HAVE A LOT OF LEARNING TO DO, IT¡¦S A CONTINOUOS PROCESS. I LOOKED UP TO TRADITIONAL GUITARISTS LIKE JIMI HENDRIX AND DAVID GILMOUR (PINKFLOYD). BUT SEEING TALENTED GUITARISTS IN THE UNDERGROUND SCENE I WOULD NOTABLY SAY I HAIL WILLIE (PATHOGEN) FOR HIS SONGWRITING CAPABILITIES AND THE WAY HE PLAYS THOSE MELODIOUS GUITAR SOLOS, AND JEP (DFTW) FOR THOSE AWESOME TECHNICAL RIFFAGE AND HIS DEDICATION TO GO FAR MORE TO THE EXTREME¡K AND THEN THERES THE GUITARISTS OF DISGORGE, SEVERED SAVIOR, CRYPTOPSY, AND KRONOS (FRANCE).

Since you guys change your music to grindcore with a touch of brutal death, pls. share us some of your music that you really love to listen these days?
50WAYSTOKILLME, MUNICIPALWASTE, DEMBONES,DFTW, PUSVOMIT, NOISECONSPIRACYPROJECT, PATHOGEN, TOXEMIA, ANUSDESATANUS, REST IN GORE, SEVERED SAVIOR, DEVOURMENT, GEVOTAIS BORKEN, GORED, BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH¡K¡K.

You tackles topic about political in your lyrics, do you think political lyrics is acceptable to metal listeners? What can you say about those bands that deals with gore, porn and brutal shits in their lyrics? Do you think or do you believe that they are really into it in reality? Do you think it is just a trend? What¡¦s the significant of that in your own ways?
ITS NOT FOR ME TO SAY IF ITS ACCEPTABLE OR NOT, BUT A LOT OF METAL BANDS LIKE DISCONFORMITY, DEBODIFIED, INFECTEDMALIGNITY, AND OUR VERY OWN DFTW AND A LOT MORE HAVE POLITICAL CONTENTS ON THEM. I WOULDN¡¦T BE SELF-RIGHTEOUS IN HAVING MY OPINION HERE ABOUT THOSE BANDS INTO GORE, PORN, OR BRUTAL SHITS. BUT HAVING SONGS THAT PERSONIFIES WOMYN AS BITCHES AND WHORE DOESN¡¦T APPEAL TO ME. IM NOT HYPOCRITICAL IN SAYING THIS COZ YES YOU¡¦RE DAMN RIGHT, WE MEN HAVE SEXUAL URGES, BUT WE MUST BE RESPONSIBLE. BESIDES OUR MOTHERS ARE WOMYN TOO SO THE WORD FOR THE DAY GUYS IS ¡§RESPECT¡¨. HAHAHA!!! DO I HEAR RESENTMENT FROM THE ¡§MACHOCORE DUDES¡¨ OUT THERE? HEY GUYS HAVE YOUR SELVES INTERVIEWED TOO¡K

Mostly labels/bands in the underground are ¡§copyrighted¡¨ when it comes to their pro pressed releases, but they have views and opinion about their stand of copyright issues, for you, where do you stand? Copyright or anti-copyright? What do you think are the bullshits when it comes to that? Pls. explain.
ALL THAT COPYRIGHT BULLSHITS, LEGALITIES, AND ALLRIGHTS RESERVED CRAPS ARE FOR THOSE INSECURED ASSHOLES. IT ALL LEADS DOWN TO ¡§MONEY¡¨ AND ¡§PRIDE¡¨ AND ¡§GLORY¡¨. THOSE WHO FIRST TRIED THE IDEA OF THE ¡§DISTRO¡¨ THING ARE SO DAMN GENIUS. SO I DON¡¦T THINK UNDERGROUND BANDS/LABELS ARE ¡§COPYRIGHTED¡¨ COZ THEY KNOW THIS DISTRO STUFF AND EVERYTHING. YOU CAN HAVE THE QUALITY IN THOSE UNDERGROUND PRO-PRESSED RELEASES LIKE THE SOUND QUALITY AND PACKAGING, AND THESE ONES ARE CHEAP COMPARED TO THOSE MAINSTREAM ONES.

Do you have any particular ideology? Do you believe in the concept of voting? Does anyone in your band practice veganism?
I DON¡¦T HAVE ANY IDEOLOGY/ NEVERMIND THE BALLOTS/ I HAVE TRIED BEING A VEGETARIAN BEFORE BUT HELL I FAILED, SO I HOPE TO TRY IT AGAIN SOON.

Since you are also writing a fanzine called CHRONICORE ZINE, and it is a political zine, which also focuses on Anarchistic ideas and views, what do you think are the difference between, anarchist, communist and terrorist? Since anarchist also creates bombs like what terrorist do, and so for the communist also, what do you think are the conflict of their beliefs and concepts since they are also against capitalism and all those shits?
HEY IM NOT AN ANARCHIST BUT ILL ANSWER YOUR QUESTION IN SUMMARY COZ THIS WOULD TAKE SO LONG TO DISCUSS¡K THE LEFT WANT TO SEIZE CONTROL OF THE STATE AND THE PEOPLE. THEIRS IS AN IDEOLOGY THAT IS AUTHORITARIAN IN NATURE COZ THERES STILL HEIRARCHY IN COMMAND OF THE COMMON PEOPLE SO IN MY OPINION, WHERES FREEDOM IN THAT? TERRORISTS ARE SO FANATICAL AND RELIGIOUS IN NATURE AND THE POWERS-THAT-BE ARE BEHIND CONTROLLING THEM AND THE SITUATION FOR THEIR OWN BENEFIT OF COURSE, THAT SUCKS RIGHT? AND ON THE OTHER HAND ANARCHISTS INTENTIONS ARE TO BREAK FREE FROM THE CONTROL OF AUTHORITY, SABOTAGING PRIVATE PROPERTIES/ESTABLISHMENTS THAT ARE DESTROYING THE ENVIRONMENT, AND TO LIVE AS ¡§HUMANS¡¨. IT¡¦S PLAIN AND SIMPLE REALLY IF EVERYONE COULD GET THE NOTION OF ANARCHISM¡¦S ¡§EXPECT RESISTANCE ONCE YOU STARTED TO EXPLOIT THE WELLBEING OF OTHERS¡¨. IN SHORT, THE PROPOSAL OF ANARCHISM IS THE ONES WHICH HAVE ALWAYS BEEN HERE WITH US, THE ONES WHICH WE ALREADY ADHERE TO

About this PATRIOTIC-ANARCHIST, what the hell is that again? I have encountered also like this, is Patriotism has no place to Anarchism? What are the bullshits when it comes to that?? By the way, how much you love your country? Pls. explain.
PATRIOTISM IS ANOTHER FORM OF FANATICISM. MANY ARE MISLED BY THE IDEA ¡§OF BECOMING HEROES¡¨, WHEN IN FACT ONCE THEIR SO CALLED ¡§CAUSE¡¨ HAVE MATERIALIZED A NEW BREED OF POWER HUNGRY INDIVIDUALS WOULD GAIN CONTROL OF THE SITUATION. I BELIEVE THAT A WORLD WITH OUT STRINGS IS CHAOS, SO IM SORT OF AN INTERNATIONALIST. IM FASCINATED BY THE OTHER CULTURES, WISH I COULD TRAVEL AS MANY COUNTRIES AS I COULD (I WOULD IF IT¡¦S FREE), I LOVE THE EARTH SO THAT INCLUDES THIS VERY SHIT HOLE THAT I AM IN RIGHT NOW.

Our role as a fanzine editors/u.g bands are to influence/educate mainstream people to the underground thing and counterculture, correct? If the mainstream publication will offer you for an interview, would you accept it? For me, this is a one step so that the mainstream people could hear your views and deep insight but not to be known, what do you think about that? Pls. explain.
NOPE I WONT DO AN INTERVIEW BY THEM. I DON¡¦T WANT TO HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THOSE ASSHOLES. THAT¡¦S WHY WERE IN THE UNDERGROUND SCENE IN THE FIRST PLACE RIGHT? TO BE INDEPENDENTLY FREE FROM CENSORSHIP AND ALL THOSE STUPID HOOPLAH DOOPLAHS¡K.

Anyways, back to your band, I heard that sATHAN is your new vokillist now, what happen to your old vocalist? How did you discover sATHAN? I guess sATHAN has a lot of potential when I heard your new demo.
YES, SATHAN REPLACED NINO (WHO MIGRATED TO AMERIKKKA TO SEEK GREENER HIGH-BREED CANNABIS). WE ACCIDENTALLY DISCOVERED SATHAN¡¦S GUTTURAL SQUEAKINGS DURING OUR STUDIO REHEARSAL LAST MONTH. HE JAMMED WITH US, AND THAT¡¦S IT. WE WERE FRIENDS WITH HIM FOR SEVERAL YEARS NOW, AND HE IS THE ¡§UN¡¨-OFFICIAL LOGO ARTISTS OF BANDS HERE LIKE DFTW AND BEERBREAK. I KNEW HE ALSO DID A LOGO OF LOSS OF CONTROL, AND OTHER BANDS ARE ASKING HIS SERVICES RIGHT NOW.

You also have other band project called ANUS DE SATANUS, what the fuck is that band all about? Is that a serious band or something? Is that a satanic band?
ANUSDESATANUS WAS CONCEPTUALIZED LAST SUMMER OF 2005 BY ME, RON TAITAX (TOXEMIA) AND YOU ASSHOLE, YES YOU SICKO! YOU¡¦RE THE BASTARD ON DRUMS HEHEHE!!! GOOD THING WE HAVE RECORDED A DEMO LAST DECEMBER, A GRINDCOHOLOCAUST/CRUST/DEATH/DOOM/SHIT/PURE D.I.Y./RAW/ FUCKING DIRTY/GADGETLESS/ HYPERBLASTBEATFUL OF CRAP SURE TO ANNOY THOSE ¡§PURISTS¡¨ OUT THERE HAHAHA!!! BUT HEY WE ROCKED, RIGHT SAUDI BOY???

Someone also called you Captain Antiox, and I find it cool! Where did you get this idea of this kinda name? Or is anyone gave you that name? Why Captain Antiox anyway?:-) Are you planning to be a political candidate this coming election?
HEY ITS YOU WHO¡¦S CALLING ME THAT NICK, AND THAT JAMIE MR.DIMPZ GORGORE, AND THAT CYCO TAITAX GUY HEHEHE!!! AND DYASTIN AND JAM OF DISSIMULATE AND TRISTAN DFTW THAT BASTARD! BUT ITS ALRIGHT WITH ME THOUGH, YOU CAN CALL ME ANYTHING, ULDARICHO-CORIX THE HUNK- MR. JR.ECHO ROSALES-CYGORIX PSYCHOTRONIX- SICKO!!! NYAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

Do you guys believe in the existence of God and Satan? Are you afraid in the dark? How about the myth of ASWANG, MANANANGGAL? How about lost soul? Why is that people are testifying that they saw and feel and witness something like ghost and supernatural creatures? Why is it that many people are studying about paranormal shits in some universities? Do you believe in that? And how about who practice Wicca? What do you think about them? Do you think all of those I have mentioned are just a CRAP??? Explain.
WELL YOU SAID IT, ITS CRAP HEHEHE¡K BUT REMEMBER THAT TIME IN ERWIN¡¦S (PATHOGEN) HOUSE? THAT BASTARD SCARED THE SHITTYHELL OUT OF US WITH ALL THOSE GHOST STORIES AND STUFFS HAHAHA!!! HEY, YOU PEED ON YOUR PANTS, RIGHT?

¡§It Looks like It¡¦s Killing Time Again¡¨, that was the title of your new demo, right? What is that all about? Are you guys loved to kill? Have you killed anyone? How about animals, have you killed animals since you were just a kid? And what can you say about PETA?
¡§LOOKS LIKE ITS KILLING TIME AGAIN¡¨ IS AN EIGHT-TRACK ANTI-WAR AGENDA DEMO. THE PROLIFERATION OF WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION OF POWERFUL COUNTRIES, AND THEIR ENDLESS QUEST FOR WORLD DOMINATION ARE THE REAL PROBLEM WE SHOULD FOCUS ONTO. THESE CONTINOUOS BUDGETTING FOR ARMAGEDDON STUPIDITY SHOULD BE STOPPED. THE CASH ALLOCATED TO CREATE WARS SHOULD BE DIVERTED TO PEOPLE¡¦S NEEDS LIKE FOOD AND SHELTER. DROP FOOD NOT BOMBS DICKHEADS! I¡¦D LOVE TO KILL THAT TAI-TAX GUY WHENEVER I GOT HOLD OF THAT SHIT HEAD! HEHEHE
ABOUT THE PETA GROUP, LIKE THE SXE MOVEMENT, WELL WE TOO RESPECT THEIR BELIEF AND THEIR COMPASSION TOWARDS ANIMALS. I HAVE LEARNED A GREAT DEAL WATCHING THEIR DVD AND HAVING THOSE FLIERS FROM THEM. SO THAT¡¦S ALL ABOUT IT MAN¡K

Call me authoritarian fuck, but this is MANDATORY!!! Define LOVE? ļ
LOVE IS PATIENT, LOVE IS KIND HAHAHA

Alright brothers! That¡¦s all and thank you, hope my questions finds you interesting, this space is all yours to say anything what you want. HAIL!
WHO CAME FIRST, THE CHICKEN OR THE EGG?
