1.Hails! Goatpenis first formed in 1991 what gave you the idea to start this band?
Sabbaoth - I had the necessity to express my art. Music was the best choice.

Sabbaoth - Surely were bands like Fear of God and Necrobutcher (Brazil). First time we got in contact with those bands we changed our vision of music, band, art and attitude!

Sabbaoth - Yes. We got contact in everywhere. Specially in Switzerland, Holland and South America.
4.What was the reason the band disbanded in 1997?
Sabbaoth - We didn´t. This information as some use to say is not correct. We just had a pause due we had no studio to rehearsal but the band was active but not producing till we got a personal studio to keep rehearsing!!!!
5.Goatpenis reformed in1999 why did you decide to bring the back?What is the current line-up of the band?

7.How long did it take the band to write the music for Anesthic Vapor?Does the whole band work on the music or does one member usually write everything?
Sabbaoth - We all take part on it. I wrote most of the lyrics, thems and my partners supported me with ideas, suggestions and opinions. Most of music are composed by Virrugus and some were mine. The drums is completed by MGM.6666 that has several years of dedication and experience to metal!!!!
8.Besides Anesthic Vapor does the band have any of the previous full lengths or demo's and EP'S still available?Besides physical releases is their any other merchandise available for the readers to buy?Where can the readers buy your releases and merchandise?

Sabbaoth - We are going to play next November (2017) here in Brazil in a festival called Brazilian Ritual Fifth Attack with Blasphemy, Holocausto and Sex Trash!!!!!
11.What does underground metal mean to you?
Sabbaoth - Nowadays, it means a shame. There are no respect, lack of attitude, the audience and bands are quite immature. it´s a pitty but metal is dying day by day!!
12.Did you or any of the members ever read may fanzines back in the early days?What were some of your favorite fanzines to read?Are their any current fanzines or web-zines that you keep up with?
Sabbaoth - Always! We always support good and SERIOUS zines that want to share bands ideas and make a decent work. I can name lots of them from everywhere in the world.
13.Goatpenis comes out of the legendary Brazilian metal scene what is your opinion of Brazil's metal scene over the years?
Sabbaoth - Brazilain bands have great chance to record and share their material nowadays due internet and media. Unfortunatelly I can´t see creativity and originality among them all...most want to copy other bands and are really closed minded!
14.Who are some of your all-time favorite bands from Brazil?Are their any new bands from Brazil that you feel the readers should check out?
YES!! Necrobutcher and Apostasia are the bands I do support forever because they were far beyond the time. Nowadays, bands like Soddamed, Somberland, Fatal Incarned, Volkmort MUST be checked because they do a great and serious work!!!
15.Thank you for taking the time to fill this interview out do you have any final comments for the readers?
I hope that I could make myself clear and those who had never heard on us keep in touch with the band music!!! Keep metal SERIOUS with RADICAL attitude!! Stop the pathetic and shameful way of life!!! NO REMORSE, JUST PUSH THE BUTTON!!!
