PROJECT: FAILING FLESH - "It's About Time To Go Out And Play Live"
July 29, 2007, 17 years ago
KvltSite.com recently caught up with PROJECT: FAILING FLESH members Eric Forrest (E-FORCE/ex-VOIVOD, Tim Gutierrez and Kevin 131 to discuss the band's new album, The Conjoined. The following is a brief excerpt from the interview:
Q: Eric, the vocals have been really amazing. Has your role changed since the first album?
Eric: "Honestly, I don't think it's changed much other than our connection as musicians and friends is better... after some cool times our vibe is brotherhood like. In the end, the objective is to capture the coolest vocal line and lyric required to fit each subject or song accordingly, and it’s done quite fast actually. What I mean is, there is no lack of creativity, just a matter of grabbing the best stuff. But it really seems that we all tend to agree on a lot of the ideas. Not a lot of arguing going on!"
Q: The band, although understandably a studio band will definitely work well in a live setting. Just get another guitarist and a keyboardist to handle all the odd instruments and you'll be set. Are you guys even giving this a thought?
Eric: "Yes, we’ve all been speaking about it and personally I would love to do it if, or when, possible. A lot of issues to be worked out obviously but I am in!!! But it costs money to tour! I guess we will all see what happens..."
Tim: "Like he said, very recently we’ve been talking and decided it’s about time to try it if possible financially,etc. So we are just in the very early stages of going about it. Right now just tossing around possible songs to play and re-learning them. That shouldn’t take too long, then we will try to get other guys in to round out the line-up. So when we can find the guys and it’s sounding cool we will probably venture out and play. No real time-table... we are kind of going at a relaxed pace as things happen and still sort of keeping the focus on the writing/recording. But hopefully sometime fairly soon, if all goes cool, some live stuff will happen."
