1.Hails Memphist how are you doing this week?Please introduce yourself to the readers?
1- Greatings my unholy brother and hails to the hordes gathering with us. Busy and cold week indeed but flowing balance.
2.When did you first discover black metal and what is it about this musicial style that drew you in?
2 - I began listening to black metal in high school at the age of 16. Death and trash fueled me but there was something missing for me that when I heard my first albums from Darthrone, Carphatian forest, Craft and specially Dark funeral feast that missing part. Time later i began playing guitar and doing vocals.
My ways, with who I was and am now the Black Metal did a great impact. Letting me using this music as a gateway representing who i am at my fullest. What i am, what i believe, my ways.
3.Who were some of the first bands that you discovered?Who are some of the current bands that have caught your attention?
3 - well as i mention earlier, Darthrone, Carpathian Forest, Craft and more important for me Dark Funeral in the times of Themgoroth and Magnus Caligula. Fucking brutal times.
4.Amock was started in 2020 when did you get the idea to start this band?
4 - I was influenced for the creation of Amock by lets say expose a hidden part of me Memphist. More viceral and unholy. Most of the lyrics and context in Amock is my despise for the christian religion and their sick ways of spread weakness. A Control and sick endoctrination of stupidity, ignorance an weakness upon the masses.
Amock spreads and is the opposite. More self. Awakening and full opposition to the mindless ways of christianity.
All this in the most extreme and offensive way upon christianity. Being soft doesn't work no more with this subject and this... deranged people. To make a antichristian statement of reality and facts. Going beyond limits is the right way to act.
5.Who would you say are Amock's biggest influences?For the readers who have never heard the band how would you best describe Amock's sound?
5 - I would said that Amock influences are the raw old school black Metal demonic essence. I will not pin point a certain band.
6.Mork Rensing is the newest EP.how would you say the new release is different from your earlier releases?
6 - Amock last album "Mork Rensing" or Dark cleansing. Is a work that carries Amock same black Metal evilness musically speaking. Just with more ominous atmosphere in some songs. Thy embrace of afliction and ocultism.
7.How long does it usually take to complete one song?
7 - Well... it usually depends on the track i am working on and indeed my spare time on hand. Some of them are fast. Some take a bit longer. All depends. Thats why i embrace being a OMB. No boundaries what so ever.
8.Where do you find inspiration for the lyrics and what are some subjects you write about?
8 - i would say that thy self within me. Some songs misanthropic chaos. Some other obscure context. It depends of what summons within my head to unleashe.
9.I believe Amock has quite a few releases out what are the releases availible?Where can the readers purchase them?
9 - Yes indeed. There two albums officialy released. 2022 "Slutten" and 2023 "Mork Rensing" both albums can be physically acquired via Masters ov Kaos and Plague Demon record.
10.Amock comes out of Puerto Rico's black metal scen what is your opinion of the scene in Puerto Rico?
10 - Well thats a correction i would like to address. Amock was created in the USA NY. My other band Niohoggr i founded it in Puerto Rico. Gave a couple of live shows then move to NY. SO The full ground of Amock was here on NY upstate. I consider and represent USA with Amock. About the PR scene in my times was pretty decent with outstanding bands. Not just in Black Metal but in other genre like trash etc. BUT.. to be honest the support for Black Metal is poor. One of the reasons why i decide to move from PR. In there i was gonna be stuck with that dilema. No time for that. Once out of PR all the gates open. I began to get the attention of other countries like south America, Colombia Mexico, Uk, FINLAND and other sites in europe.And with bands i keep contact and still following from Puerto Rico are Serpenterium, Necronomic and VALTURN. Real dedicated musicians for this brutal genre in PR.
11.Who are your all time favorite bands coming out of Puerto Rico?Who are some of the current bands that you can recomend to the readers?
11 - Strait to it Serpenterium, Necromomic and Valturn.
12,Besides Amock you also work with Niohoggr and Angrbodas Curse how would you say these bands music is different from Amock?
12 - Amock is misanthropy and anticristianism. Niohoggr deals with Ocultism and war; . In Angrbodas Curse i do the unholy guitars but i must say, in Angrbodas Curse
All the music composition and full creation of Angrbodas Curse is upon Angra .
13.What does black metal mean to you?
13 - As i mentioned early the Black metal for me is a gateway from this comsuming anf fucked up reality.
14.Memphist thank you for taking the time to fill this interview out do you have any final comments for the readers?
14 - Thanke for the infernal privilege my war brother. And i just shall say to all the hordes; keep brutal and keep the Black Metal flame high above.... Amock https://www.facebook.com/Amockofficial https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCo0QDBvMRmo6LUTN_wdII2Q
