Please tell us about the history of your band and its members.
We started in September of 2010. At first we had no clear idea what we wanted to play, it had to be noisy, gory and something our little city had never seen before. In the beginning we were just a group of friends, who drank beer, jammed and tried to figure something out. The first members were Jaak on the bass guitar, Taavi on the guitars, Rainer on drums and Märt on vocals. We did some cover songs, wrote down some of our own stuff and looked for gigs. The first proper gig we ever played was at our local schools band contest, under the former name Bockkake. Then our vocal left due to musical differences in March of 2011. After a while of instrumental practices we found a new singer, Arif and Taavi changed to bass and Jaak to guitars. That was the birth of Cunt carnage and soon CC playd it's first gig in a local underground club. We wrote down a shitload of new songs, made some concerts in Tallinn and Narva and recorded a free DIY EP. So the line up for CC is now:
Arif-vocals, who enjoys art and destroying untrained ears with his vocals
Taavi-bass, who slaps his guitar and your moral standards
Rainer-drums, who handles drumsticks as good as his special body parts
Jaak, guitar, whos riffs and mind are as fucked up as the latest george w. bush speech
How would you describe your style? Which bands influenced your music?
We would describe our style as a COCKtail of grindcore, goregrind, dance music, death metal and punk. We never intended to follow any standards, if it is a groovy riff or a good beat, we will use it, the result is up to the listeners to judge. Although we are all melomans and enjoy different music genres, CC-s music has influences from bands such as Satan's revenge on mankind, 2 minuta dreka, Jig-ai, Elite drug dealers, Cliteater, Cock and ball torture, Stoma etc.
Why should a metalhead buy your demos/albums?
Why would a metalhead buy our albums? At the moment, that is a mission impossible. Our EP is free to download on the web and we have no intentions to sell it. But why should he/she download it? It is probably every metalheads own choice, whether to listen to it or not. We think that every new experience is useful and if you like to listen some industrial city-goregrind, our EP could be the right choice. And if you start to drum our beats against your knees or start to do gore-vocals on the street, while listening us on your mp3-player, our music has achieved it's goal.
What have you released so far and how were your releases received by the public/media?
We have released an Internet EP called World Cock. It got some short but good reviewes in blogs or forums.
Do you play live as well? How's your live activity so far?
Cunt carnage play live, yes. Our live activity depends on the amount of beer we have drank. The last gig featured some weird sexual intercourse imitations from fans and band members.
What should labels/zines/promoters know about your band? Why should they be interested in it?
The basic information is in these questions, what else can we add.. Just support the underground.
What plans do you have for the near future as a band?
We want to play some gigs abroad, maybe Latvia or Russia and definately play in Estonia too. We are writing new songs and maybe we would release something new in the nearest future. We are opened to any split-cd offers.
Where can we listen to your band and where can we buy your stuff?
You can download our songs from last.fm or just google the band, it will give file sharing sites where our EP is ready for free download. If we release some merch or copy some cd-s, we will inform the people who are interested and our stuff would be available on gigs or by communicating with the band members.
