## Interviews

### Lautstürmer - Adam, Selle and Christ

#### 19/07/10 || Habakuk

Lautstürmer play crust. Fast. New. Old. Swedish. You know what that means, but you don’t know who they are. Read this, and you will. Sort of. And if you haven’t heard them, you should go out and get their album, “Depopulator” – just so you know that Sweden isn’t all GD and IKEA.

Global Domination: Hello, dear Lautstürmer guys! You recently released your debut album, which I was happy to review among all the other crap we get sent on a regular basis- Welcome to globaldomination.se’s interview booth. Please sit down and tell me who I’m talking to first.

Lautstürmer: Hello dear Global Domination, the answers are provided by Adam, Selle and Christ.

Alright, now please gimme an old school band introduction. Who are you and what do you do?

(A) We are Selle on blasting drums of death, Christ of Fear on thunderbass
and outrageous backing (and some lead) vocals, and Adamagecase on screaming
guitar and screaming vocals as well.

Real time jobs? Or is that not punk enough?

(S) No, if you think about it, it really isn’t punk enough with wage slavery. Which would make us only about 33% punk.

You guys all have a background in Driller Killer, if my sources are right. What happened there? Is that band officially dead or just waiting to be revived?

(Ch) As usual there’s line-up problems in Driller Killer, right now we don’t have a drummer. We had to turn down lots of interesting gigs and that of course sucks. But we will be back with a vengeance when you least expect it!

So, is Lautstürmer a side-project or a full band?

(A) We are very much a full band.

(Ch) Lautstürmer is no side project whatsoever, even if people seem to think
so due to the Driller Killer connections.

This is a Swedish site, you guys are Swedish. Interesting coincidence. As
far as I know, Sweden is known for expensive alcohol, IKEA and absolutely
necro royal weddings. Anything else I’ve missed?

(S) No, that was a complete description.

(A) There is the well known fact that most of the Swedish women are named Inga and seem to be living in the Swiss alps for some reason…

(Ch) Råpunk!? Black metal (better than Norwegian!)!? Dr Alban!?

What is your band’s secret to awesomeness? It’s certainly not the album
cover for “Depopulator”.

(A) A healthy mix of distortion, mood-elevating beverages(and such), self-distance, loudness, and not too frequent showering. And, last but not least, the album cover for “Depopulator”.

(S) A healthy un-interest in trends, money and business.

(Ch) An unhealthy interest in alcohol.

Am I right in hearing a certain Rock ‘n Roll influence in your sound apart
from all the punk noise? Where does that come from?

(S) The history of rockenroll goes way back and can be traced back to Africa in the times before the European colonialism and genocides. So we must pay tribute to all the mad unknown rockers in Africa 500 years ago who eventually became slaves in America and came up with blues and so on. And then later on there appeared such people as Roky Erickson and Motörhead.

(A) Yes you are quite right, we have noticed it too. Don’t know how and why, but it’s there. And we’re not the ones to complain. Must be that Kiss album Santa brought back in ’83…

Who writes your lyrics and what are they about? (and by the way, have you heard of the band “The Coffinshakers”? Check them out!)

(A) That would be me, going on and on about my views on life and humanity
and whatever. With some dark humour on the side of course, can’t be all dead
serious all the time. There’s even some old zombie shit I wrote 15 years
ago. Wooooff! (and by the way, had a tape containing some of The
Coffinshakers stuff, and it was really good! “…Drracula has rrisen frrom
the grrave”! Lost the tape though.)

Honest opinion: Does a song need more than three chords?

(A) Only if there’s a need for it. Why complicate things?

(S) If someone makes a song, and says it’s a song, who can say it’s not?

Well, GD can. Please choose your favorite of these three: Static / Feedback / Noise.

(A) Kick and snare, lots of kick and snare!

(Ch) NOICE! (the band)

Do you own a Billy cupboard?

(A) Never heard of such a thing.

Yeah right. If Lautstürmer was a piece of furniture – which one would it be and why?

(A) A good ol’ drinking-couch, complete with ass-groove and one missing leg:
as soon as you’re comfortable enough, the books you piled to support it
caves, and you’re on the floor wondering what the fuck just happened!

Recommend me the best Swedish crust album no-one has ever heard. I’m putting my trust in you.

(S) A whole album you say… Ambulance’s “The end of our time”, maybe. It’s a
killer.

Well, I guess I know why no-one’s ever heard of them. Ambulance? Taxi? What about that stupid band name of yours – How did you get it, and since
when has German been considered cool? Did I miss something?

(S) If I get it right you’re a Swedish person (you aren’t), writing in English (just like we also are doing). Is that cool? (necessary!) most people think so. Aber Deutsch ist fan so viel cooler. (take notes, everyone…)

(A) So now you care about what is considered cool? Pull yourself together!
I came up with the name when totally out of it, and it kinda stuck with us.
What did you have in mind? Solkigt Spökskynke? Moroth?

You’re pretty much asking for it with that band name – Give me your favorite German word/phrase/whatever. And no dictionaries, för fan.

(S) Alter Schwede, I don’t bloody know what it actually means.

(Anna) Goldkrone.

(Ch) Kinder egg or führer.

Fantastic. Fun fact: “Alter Schwede” translates to “old Swede” and is used as an appreciative form of “dude”. So, are you familiar with our site, Global Domination? If not, check it out and rate it on a scale from 1 to 2. NO decimals.

(S) We read it of course about once everyday, and had been doing so since our early childhood.

(Ch) Looks nice!

That rating bit didn’t quite work out, eh? Anyway, please finish these sentences as you see fit:

Carcass sold out when … several pigs were seen flying. (A)

Wimps and posers … are for Manowar to worry about. (A)

If you’re happy and you know it … you must be drunk. (A)

Discharge is the best band in the world, BUT… the majority of the world’s
population totally disagree, which indeed is a strong argument against
democracy… (S)

Heavy metal is … mostly not very heavy.. (S)

Nuclear war must be the answer to … question 3b in the “Vi i femman”
tryouts 1985. (A)

Fine. Next up, I’m gonna give you a list of animals. Find a band that
matches them and explain why. Example: Toad – Motörhead. Well, just look at the damn thing. The next one won’t be so clear.

Elephant – Ronnie James Dio. Had a voice as big as one. R.I.P. (A)

Goldfish – Jerry Williams. Looks like one while singing. (A)

Cockroach – Ozzy. Will most likely survive WW3. (A)

Rat – Varukers. Name of vocalist. (Don’t look much like one though.) (A)

Cute Pony – Udo Dirkschneider. (A)

Rhino – Danzig. Compact, grumpy and sometimes seen banging his head against
peoples fists. (A)

Mole – Exploited. Occasionally pops up, dirtier than ever. (A)

- would have been easier with for instance wasp, then we could say WASP,
or cat, then we could say Cat Stevens. (S)

Now while we’re at it with all the name-dropping – give me five albums that you consider absolute and undisputable classics. If necessary, explain.

(A) New York Dolls – Too much too soon
(Ch) WASP – WASP
(A) Judas Priest – Painkiller
(A) Anti Cimex – Painkiller
(A) Iron Maiden – Iron Maiden

Okay, we’re almost done here. Our readers are hard-working professionals and time is money. You now have exactly one sentence to convince them why they should check out Lautstürmer. And be fair, or I’ll delete every word beyond that.

(A) Check us out, it will most likely give you a sensation of utter well-being!

Wow, now that sounds like my kind of thing. Thanks very much for your time and effort. Of course, you have the last words:

Lautstürmer: Thanx a bunch for the interview. ‘DEPOPULATOR’ CD is out now on
Power It Up Records, and will be out soon (remastered and with bonus track!)
on LP & CD on Unrest Records.
