February 2, 2007, 17 years ago
CRADLE OF FILTH's official website has posted a new interview with drummer Martin Skaroupka. A few excerpts follow:
Cradleoffilth.com: Did you ever meet Cradle Of Filth before you played with them?
Skaroupka: "Yes, I saw them live in Prague when I was 16 yrs old (Dusk tour). I have always been a huge fan of them, so... Then they have signed my CDs like Dusk or Vempire, now I´m the person who is signing those CD's. And I´m very proud of it! Dusk And Her Embrace changed my life and drumming on this CD has always been a big inspiration for me."
Cradleoffilth.com: You appeared in the Temptation video. How was that?
Skaroupka: "Actually, that was my first big video shooting, so it was very exciting and I've learned a lot of things. Although it was a very long day, everybody was very professional and as you can see, the final version looks pretty good!"
Cradleoffilth.com: Was it difficult learning all the drums for the tour set list?
Skaroupka: "Well, it depends. Some of the songs should be played as technical as it has been played before on the original album versions, so it was a bit harder, but not really - I have known all the songs for many years. But anyway, it's a big challenge for me to play all the songs after two monster killer drummers as Nicholas (Barker) and Adrian (Erlandsson) definitely are!"
