Bloodstock Metal To The Masses Finalist Interview: Confessions Of A Serial Killer (Interview By Matt Bladen)

Bloodstock Metal To The Masses 2024 Finalists Interview With Confessions Of A Serial Killer (Interview By Matt Bladen)

First of all congratulations on getting to the final, which this year is the biggest one yet!

1. You’re going to be a part of the inaugural Day Of Reckoning at The Patti Pavilion in Swansea. How does that feel?

Truly humbling, it's been an electrifying and inspiring experience throughout and we cannot wait to take our stage show to a bigger stage.

2. From what we’ve seen your campaign to get to Bloodstock has been very successful (obviously). How has the experience of this year’s M2TM been for you?

It's been a great insight into what is required for such a prestigious event and an incredible opportunity to build our following and get our music out to a larger audience.

3. M2TM is all about supporting your local scene. How important is the local scene to you as a band?

It is absolutely integral to us and all bands at a grass roots level, and the Swansea scene is definitely on the rise and we have felt that more than ever over the competition.

4. To add to that. How strong do you feel the scene is at the moment?

It is in a state of flux and we believe heading into a resurgence, the local promoters etc really are building a scene we can be proud of.

5. What should people expect when you take to the stage at the Patti. It’s a pretty big stage so are there more nerves than playing say Fuel or The Bunkhouse?

Nerves are something that fuel us so we thrive on that in all honesty , we truly look forward to a larger stage as we pride ourselves on an energetic and engaging show and the more space the better, expect a new chapter in Audio Violence.

6. What other bands are you looking forward to seeing on the day?

In particular the mighty Raging Speedhorn a band we've been fans of for a very long time indeed.

7. If you were to get to play Bloodstock on the New Blood Stage, how would that feel for you as a band?

It would be like a genuine dream come true, this is our lives and we have invested all we are into this band and to hit that Bloodstock stage would be a true accomplishment, an affirmation and sign for us on all levels that this is our fate.

8. Would you recommend the M2TM initiative to any band looking to showcase themselves in their scene and further away?

Absolutely and without question , it is by far the biggest chance for any band in the scene to further themselves on all fronts.

9. In addition to that question. What advice would you give them in order to get where you are?

Be humble and kind to all around you , act Professionally and courteous and pay close attention to the rules, and most of all have fun and embrace the whole experience.

* This last question was invented by Mr Paul Hutchings who sent the Heat interviews so it’s an homage*

10. As we are a Welsh publication and this is M2TM South Wales. The final question is: What is your favourite sheep?

Hebridean

Thank you very much for answering these questions! Good luck on 29th June from everyone involved with Metal To The Masses South Wales.
