Interviews About Albums: Devouring Famine - Contact From Below (Demo) (2022)


In this new interview, we sat down with the American Black Metal solo project Devouring Famine to ask some questions about his demo album "Contact From Below"

1. What can you say about this new EP/CD?

In this fourth demo I wanted to experiment a bit more with doom and depressive elements and not as many fast rhythms as I had been doing in my first 3 demos, since it is the last demo before the album was released I wanted to show that you can be aggressive and dark in other ways it seems to me the perfect moment.

2. What is the meaning of the EP/CD name?

The meaning of the contract from below, is quite open to the experience of each one but something that all people have in common is that to be able to do some things in life you have to stop doing others, everything cannot be done, life is not enough for us, It's like signing a contract I give lifetime in exchange for something.

3. Which one is the composer of the CD/EP?

Just me.

4. If you had to pick one song, which one would you pick?

Definitely Contract from below.

5. Is there a special message in this EP/CD? If there is what it is?

That the world is a dark place, the interesting thing about music is especially black metal that the message is not always clear, each person depends on their cultural context, and they can interpret the message in one way or another.

6. Are there some lyrics that you'd love to share?

In general, I don't write much thinking about the lyrics since I'm more of a guitarist than anything else, I think the name of the song is inspired by something I've read recently and I improvise the lyrics a bit. and I never keep them.

7. Which inspirations have been important for this album? Like musically or friends, family, someone you'd love to thank especially?

I would say that the direct inspiration of this last demo is musical and a little bit of the context of the world that every time loses more sanity, take inspiration from albums from Leviathan, Mayhem, Mournful congregation, and a little bit of king crimson.

8. Something to add?

Thank you very much for this interview. And thank you very much to all those who support underground extreme metal bands, especially underground black metal, which is usually a genre despised by some elites of good taste for not fitting in with the standards that they want to impose.
