Please tell us about the history of your band and its members.
Our project was born in 2007. In the beginning our intention was to create a thrash metal band until we started to compose songs with a more indipendent method to create our personal style. In the first years we've got a few line up's issues, especially with singers, so one day Steve decides to become both singer and guitarist and almost one year after we started we changed our bassist. 
 
How would you describe your style? Which bands influenced your music? 
Well as we said before our style is thrash metal oriented but isn't pure thrash metal at all. Frankly we don't even describe very well what we created but basically we play a thrash/heavy metal. I can only invite you to listen our songs because each one of them has a particular soul and influence.
 
Why should a metalhead buy your demos/albums?
We're not a clone of another band, I mean we don't compose our songs saying "ok let's compose an heavy metal songs"; that's reason because we have difficulty to describe our style, and that's the reason because people should try to listen our music. Why  should I buy an album that plays like Christ Illusion instead of buying Christ Illusion?
 
What have you released so far and how were your releases received by the public/media? 
We've just released our first EP; before there had been the “Onward” demo, but it’ s not an official release. What about judgment of public and reviews? Quite positive, quite negative, much positive, much negative. We have a lot of work to do for sure our opinion.
 
Do you play live as well? How's your live activity so far?
Yes we do but not so frequently. A management would be appreciated to increase our live experience but usually it’ s very funny and instructive.
 
What should labels/zines/promoters know about your band? Why should they be interested in it?
Magazines should be interested for the same reason we gave you about "buying our albums"'s question, but it’ s different for labels and promoters, they simply can't. This isn't the period in which you can invest your money in music, you'd be a fool. In fact even the biggest labels ask for your money first, they cannot risk to invest in any kind of newcomer band, definitely not in the metal scene we guess. Self promotion is too expensive we're afraid.
 
What plans do you have for the near future as a band?
We will soon start to work for another new work. A full length this time.
 
Where can we listen to your band and where can we buy your stuff?
You can go on our facebook website, “band profile” section. To get a copy of our EP or of our demo (which is for free) just send us a message, or write us an email (tetrarchate@gmail.com).
Thank you for interviewing us.
