June 28, 2009, 15 years ago
WYKKED WYTCH vocalist Ipek is featured in a new interview with Portugal's Hell On Fire. An excerpt from the conversation is available below.
Hell on Fire: What can you say about supports in Miami? It is easy in there for a band to survive? Which is the best advice that you can you give for those bands that are in the beginning?
Ipek: "Florida used to be the capital of death metal music but lately it’s all a saturated shitload of garbage. Not enough metal clubs for bands to play so everyone goes out of town to find venues. Metal is not good here unless major bands comes down for a concert. My best advice to young people is to put your music out on internet. Promote like crazy and then play as many places you can."
Hell on Fire: What do you think about the actual panorama in the metal scene? For you what is the main diferences between the metal from U.S.A and metal from Europe? Did you ever come to any country in Europe?
Ipek: "The difference in Europe and US for metal is loyalty. In Europe it seems that the people are more supportive of the music and in the US a lot of the time you have a trendier type of fan that will grow out of music and move onto the next trend. We have toured across Europe several times and have never been in Portugal. This is gonna be awesome and we are looking forward to it."
