VADER's Piotr "Peter" Wiwczarek is featured in a new interview with Tarja Virmakari at Metal Shock Finland.
The Polish veterans are currently on the Back To The Black 2013 tour where they are playing all songs from the cult albums Black To The Blind and Sothis.
"It has gone very well, nearly all the shows so far have been sold out," says Wiwczarek. "From the stage we’ve felt the esteem and affection from our fans. It’s a great feeling, indeed! Even if we’ve played every night true massacre shows, followed by many hours in the tour bus, we feel full of tremendous energy and each show has been exciting and different from the others. The atmosphere of the whole tour crew is great which for sure we’ll remember for a long time. We’re really surprised and excited on how well the tour it’s going.
When I proposed Nuclear Blast about bringing these two albums on the tour, they agreed right away. For each night we’ve prepared a 70-minutes set (even more with the encores), playing basically songs from Black To The Blind and Sothis, in raw versions, as in good old times. Some of the songs have never been played live before. The fans have appreciated it a lot, we’ve met an particularly warm reception. We’ve really felt the spirit of the old times on the past shows. With this setlist we want to thank our fans for the continuous support in all these past years. In mid-April will start the second part of the Back to the Black 2013 tour, which will bring us towards Scandinavian countries, the Balkans, Italy and Spain and several festivals, too. We’ll reveal more details as the tour comes nearer."
