MoM: Introduce yourselves/remind everyone who you guys are. Band name, members, style etc?
Black Pyre: We are Black Pyre, 4 piece black metal outfit local to south Wales. We create black metal inspired by the old school sounds of Greece and Norway. They utilize all of the trademark features in black metal such as blast beats and trem-picking and combine it with melodic riffs and an evil presence.
MoM: How have the last year(s) been for the band? What have you been up to?
Black Pyre: We have been gigging and touring our debut album Winter Solstice, as well as working on new music.
MoM: What experience have you had with Bloodstock/M2TM in the past?
Black Pyre: We played the heats in 2019 and had a fantastic time, and will enjoy participating again.
MoM: How are you feeling entering the M2TM format back as it should be?
Black Pyre: Playing in front of a crowd again? We feel fairly confident. A little knocked by the logistics and road closures, but we anticipate a great show. We relish the idea of having a crowd, and aim to please.
MoM: What would it mean to you to play Bloodstock?
Black Pyre: For us playing Bloodstock would be a great honour, and we feel it would make a great string to our bow, and hopefully broadcast us to wider audiences and help to cement us as a staple of UK black metal. We hope if we do play that it will yield fruitful opportunities for us going forwards.
MoM: Tell us two truths and one lie about the band?
Black Pyre:
1. Asbjorn’s favourite food is mayonnaise,
2. Kjottflate once had a dream that instead of going to Banbury we decided to play the Gryphon last minute
3. We are playing a festival in Norway in September.
MoM: Finally give us a four word rundown of what to expect?
Black Pyre: Black Pyre smell good
