Πριν αρκετές μέρες πολλοί καλλιτέχνες από την Ελλάδα ανταποκρίθηκαν θετικά στο να απαντήσουν σε κάποιες ερωτήσεις μου. Το άρθρο χωρίστηκε σε παραπάνω μέρη από 1 ( <b>το Μέρος 1 εδώ</b> : <a href="https://metalhall.blogspot.com/2020/04/stayingathome-1-greek-musicians-talk-to.html">https://metalhall.blogspot.com/2020/04/stayingathome-1-greek-musicians-talk-to.html</a> και το <b>Μέρος 2</b> : <a href="https://metalhall.blogspot.com/2020/04/stayathome-2-greek-musicians-talk-to-us.html">https://metalhall.blogspot.com/2020/04/stayathome-2-greek-musicians-talk-to-us.html</a> )<br />

Ζούμε σε μια περίεργη και πρωτόγνωρη περίοδο σίγουρα για όλους μας. Αντιμετωπίζουμε κάτι που δεν το γνωρίζουμε και μας λένε να μείνουμε μέσα σπίτια μας για να το αντιμετωπίσουμε. Είναι δύσκολη η όλη κατάσταση; Πόσο περίεργη είναι; Έλληνες καλλιτέχνες μου μιλάνε γιαυτό και τους ευχαριστώ πολύ για αυτό. Στις παρακάτω ερωτήσεις απαντάνε οι :<br />

A few days ago, many artists from Greece responded positively to answer to some of my questions. The article was divided into parts .<br />
( <b>Part 1 here </b>: <a href="https://metalhall.blogspot.com/2020/04/stayingathome-1-greek-musicians-talk-to.html">https://metalhall.blogspot.com/2020/04/stayingathome-1-greek-musicians-talk-to.html</a> and <b>Part 2 here</b> : <a href="https://metalhall.blogspot.com/2020/04/stayathome-2-greek-musicians-talk-to-us.html">https://metalhall.blogspot.com/2020/04/stayathome-2-greek-musicians-talk-to-us.html</a> )<br />
We experience a strange and unknown situation for all of us. We face something that we do not know what it is. They said to us to stay inside our house so we can face it with succeess. So...how difficult is the whole situation for each one of us ? Greek artists talk to me and i thank them so so much! The astists that participated in this are :<br />

διαβάζω τα νέα παράλληλα (από τον υπολογιστή) και μιλάω με ανθρώπους σε άλλες

Nα μιλάνε με τους δικούς τους ανθρώπους όσο πιο πολύ μπορούν, και να φροντίσουν
το σπίτι τους, που τους κρατάει στην ουσία συντροφιά. Είναι πολύ δύσκολο να
μπεις στην διαδικασία να διαβάσει βιβλία, να ακούσεις μουσική, εγώ τουλάχιστον
δυσκολεύτηκα πολύ να βρω την διάθεση. Αλλά βρήκα χαρα σε μικρές χαζαμάρες, όπως
πχ να φτιάξω τις γλάστρες μου, να καθαρίσω τα συρτάρια μου, να αρχειοθετήσω τα
δισκάκια μου.. επίσης, θα έλεγα, να μην προσπαθεί ο κόσμος να είναι ήρεμος. Να
το ζήσει όπως το καταλαβαίνει, ακόμα κι αν αυτό σημαίνει ότι πρέπει να πάρει

H αλήθεια είναι ότι δεν εχω σταματήσει να κάνει μουσικά πράγματα, σε σημείο που
δεν προλαβαίνω να κάνω όσα θέλω μέσα στην μέρα (όπως ακριβώς και πριν δηλαδή) –
έχω ήδη 3 διαφορετικά πράγματα που ολοκληρώνονται σιγά – σιγά ( ναι, 3

<b>- Hello and thank you for this talk. To start with, i know that is difficult situation for all of us and we hope for the better. So what are you doing now that we all stay inside our houses? how is this situation for you?</b></div>
<br />
The truth is that I spend most of the day cleaning the house and unraveling things that need to be thrown away, and making music, videos, backing up, talking to my friends and students, in general, too much computer and sitting down. at the office! I can't say that this has bothered me, but the fact that I read the news at the same time (from the computer) and talk to people in other countries who are having a much harder time, this is so hard for me.<br />

<div style="margin: 0px;">
Talk to their people as much as they can, and take care of their home, which actually keeps them company. It's very difficult to get into the process of reading books, listening to music, at least I found it very difficult to find the mood. But I found joy in small tinsmiths, such as making my own pots, cleaning my drawers, archiving my records ... I would also say, don't try people be calm. Everyone should live it as he understands it, even if it means he has to pick up a phone and stick his voices. Don't hold back, because Aeolos' bag will burst!</div>

The truth is that I haven't stopped doing musical things, to the point where I don't have time to do what I want during the day (just like before) - I already have 3 different things that are done slowly (yes, 3 different records) plus their videos, and their promo, so creatively for me it was a great opportunity - yet, there's always a big one in the back of my mind because, why do I do all this, if it all goes to hell, what's the point? had, but I do not allow myself to slip there, j simply continue ..</div>

Αυτή τη στιγμή δουλεύω απομακρυσμένα από το σπίτι μιας και έχω αυτή τη δυνατότητα.

Ε, μένω κι εγώ μέσα κατά κύριο λόγο. Ξεκίνησα πριν την καραντίνα λόγω ενός θέματος υγείας (μη σοβαρού) και συνέχισα, για μένα η κατάσταση τραβάει γύρω στον ενάμιση μήνα τώρα. Το μόνο πρόσωπο που επισκέπτομαι είναι η μάνα μου, κυρίως για να τη βοηθήσω. Το διαχειρίζομαι όπως μπορώ, με αρκετή δουλειά, μπόλικο <span lang="EN-US">Netflix, </span>βιβλία, μουσική, δουλειές στο σπίτι. Γενικά το βλέπω σα μια ευκαιρία να απολαύσω την παρέα του εαυτού μου και να μπω πιο βαθειά στις σκέψεις μου. Υπάρχουν και στιγμές που βαριέμαι αρκετά, ευτυχώς γι’αυτό υπάρχει το αλκοόλ! </div>

<b>Steelianos Amirides: </b>Κοίταξε κατ’αρχάς θεωρώ ότι πρέπει να περνάμε ούτως ή
άλλως χρόνο μόνοι μας. Η παρέα είναι πολύ όμορφο πράγμα, είτε φιλική, είτε
ερωτική, είτε συγγενική. Αλλά μπορείς να την εκτιμήσεις και να την απολαύσεις
όταν αποτελεί μέρος της καθημερινότητάς σου. Θεωρώ ότι σε όλες τις καταστάσεις
οφείλουμε να βλέπουμε τις ευκαιρίες και τα θετικά. Το ένα μεγάλο θετικό είναι
ότι η χώρα μας δεν έχει τις απώλειες που θα είχε αν τα πράγματα είχαν
διαχειριστεί με διαφορετικό τρόπο. Και το σύστημα υγείας με όλα του τα
προβλήματα ανταποκρίνεται πολύ επαρκώς προς το παρόν. Το άλλο είναι ότι
καθαρίζει η ατμόσφαιρα, τα νερά, τα δάση, η φύση γενικότερα. Και για όποιον το
δει, και το προσπαθήσει, άλλο μεγάλο θετικό θα ‘ναι ο χρόνος με τους
αγαπημένους μας εφόσον μένουμε μαζί, ώστε να τους γνωρίσουμε ακόμα καλύτερα. Δε
φαντάζεσαι πόσα μπορείς να μάθεις για τους δικούς σου ανθρώπους όταν συζητήσεις
μαζί τους περισσότερο από το σύνηθες. Εγείρονται ερωτήματα, μνήμες, μπορεί να
τους γνωρίσεις πολύ καλύτερα είτε είναι γονείς, είτε σύντροφοι είτε παιδιά.
Τώρα για μας που μένουμε μόνοι μας, ε νομίζω ότι μπορούμε να γνωρίσουμε
καλύτερα τους εαυτούς μας, αντί να μιζεριάσουμε πλήρως.<o:p></o:p></div>

<b>- Hello and thank you for this talk. To start with, i know that is difficult situation for all of us and we hope for the better. So what are you doing now that we all stay inside our houses? how is this situation for you?</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Maxi Nil :</b>Good evening and thank you for the invitation!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
First of all, I'm not panicking! I'm sure most, if not all, of us didn't have time to sit at home to take care of ourselves, our man, our animals, etc. So it's a good opportunity to tidy up a house, clean up and generally close all those pending issues we had .</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Personally, I'm still very busy hahahaha but at the same time I'm giving voice lessons online along with some masterclass like I did before quarantine, just now strictly only online. The TV game where I work as a coach (Just the 2 of Us) has stopped shooting so I spend time with my animals, my partner and myself.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Andreas Papadopoulos: </b>I thank you Michael for the hospitality! It's always a pleasure to talk.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
At the moment I am working remotely from home since I have this opportunity. I now have a lot more free time to spend with my family and my child, to play and see me every day! Believe me this is a luxury and I enjoy it as long as it doesn't go! Otherwise, as most people imagine, Netflix and torrents (oops!).</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Overall i see a lot of movie but even more Call of Duty Modern Warfare on PS4 and of course I deal much more with music now, I write new songs for Serenity Broken and generally we work with the other kids the arrangements of the rest of the songs! My day has become quite productive on many levels with quarantine.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Steelianos Amirides:</b>Thank you very much Michael! My pleasure.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Well, I stay mostly inside. I started before quarantine due to a health issue (not serious) and continued, for me the situation has been dragging on for about a month and a half now. The only person I visit is my mother, mainly to help her. I manage it as best I can, with a lot of work, plenty of Netflix, books, music, housework. I generally see it as an opportunity to enjoy the company of myself and go deeper into my thoughts. There are times when I get bored enough, fortunately there is alcohol!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>- In this unprecedented scene for all of humanity, we see many who cannot manage it, staying inside their home. What advice would you give them to make their lives easier and calmer?</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Maxi Nil: </b>I think the comfort of our home allows us to do a lot of things with and without the internet. Music, reading, cooking, studying, a walk and so many other things! Of course I can understand people who are financially affected ... I will tell them strength and patience ... I can't find other words.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Andreas Papadopoulos: </b>It is something so unprecedented that we live in that it has certainly changed our daily lives and our habits terribly. We are also people that like to go out and walk a lot, so quarantine and exclusion makes the Greek hit red.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I can't say that I am able to advise anyone on all this as I am not an expert but I can say what I do in my daily life.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I spend a lot of quality time with my family and my child, watching movies, series, playing PS4 and writing music. I think the key is for everyone to find what is most pleasing to them and to do it. His hobby, what he did and liked before this whole phase. Let's think a little upside down, for a change! We are home and we do what we like, we have a good time!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Steelianos Amirides:</b> Look at first I think we have to spend time alone anyway. Friendship is a very beautiful thing, whether friendly, erotic or related. But you can appreciate it and enjoy it when it is part of your daily routine. I think that in all situations we have to look at the opportunities and the positives. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
One big positive is that our country does not have the losses it would have if things had been handled differently.And the health system with all its problems responds very adequately at the moment. The other is that it cleans the atmosphere, the waters, the forests, nature in general. And for anyone who sees it, and tries it, another big positive will be the time with our loved ones as long as we stay together to get to know them even better. You can't imagine how much you can learn about your own people when you talk to them more than usual. Questions and memories are raised, you can get to know them much better, whether they are parents, partners or children. Now for those of us who live alone, I think we can get to know ourselves better, instead of being completely misunderstood.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
<b>-Do you think that what we live in could be a source of inspiration for something creative? In general, how do you move on a musical level at this time?</b></div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
<b>Maxi Nil: </b>Of course! I don't think there is an artist out there who doesn't feel the need to express, through his art, the current situation. Personally, beyond the vocal lessons I give (which makes me feel creative) songs for the 3rd album without the 2nd being released yet (it will be released in the fall).</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Andreas Papadopoulos: </b>Well that's for sure! I believe that a large percentage of future releases will be inspired by the virus and there will certainly be similar topics, not only for the virus itself but also for the social / economic implications it has brought. How it will make us appreciate life as a whole differently. The way we see things to this day will change, that's what I'm signing. Musically, I can't tell you that it has inspired me so much, but it has given me a lot of time and that brings new compositions to the table. If I were writing lyrics, it would probably be a reference point.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Steelianos Amirides: </b>Of course, such periods are also a source of inspiration, since time itself is the necessary ingredient. At this time, Enemy and I were about to finish our third album, but we are at 90%. We will all continue together when all this is over. </div>
<div>
Personally, after going through a difficult period with the health issue I mentioned above, as well as a loss of a loved one, I have recently regained my rhythm, studying, writing exercises, songs for my students, and the truth is that where and where do I dig last? and some of my own creations, unrelated to the band.</div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
<b>-Closing and after thanking you very much for this chat, I would like you to say something like an epilogue to the people who are reading them now.</b></div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
<b>Maxi Nil: </b>I don't want to say much. Each of us experiences the situation differently depending on how much and how it has affected him. For some it is an opportunity to rest, for others to see their children, others are financially ruined, others lose. someone of their own ... patience have strenght .Time heals!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Andreas Papadopoulos</b>: I would like to thank you, Michael, for your time and your idea to ask these questions. I would like to tell the world that all this is unfortunately not a trick of the Masons and that we should be very careful.We stay home damn it, it's not that scary dude! Let's think once about not only ourselves but also others. So far as a country we seem to be dealing with it well, for now. Let's continue like this and better protect those we love, but also our unknown fellow human being. It will pass, too, but pass with the fewest victims. STAY AT HOME DUDES.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Steelianos Amirides:</b> Buddies, have hope, have a good time and always be aware of the events with critical thinking, and be a little patient! Everything will be fine, and everything is done for good! We stay home!</div>

<b>-Καλησπέρα και σε ευχαριστώ για αυτή τη κουβέντα.</b><br />
<b>Λοιπόν, ξέροντας πως είναι μια δύσκολη περίοδος για όλους μας ελπίζουμε για τα καλύτερα. Τι κάνεις τώρα που μένουμε όλοι μας μέσα; Πως διαχειρίζεσαι την όλη κατάσταση;</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Giannis Papadimitriou</b> : Καλησπέρα Μιχάλη. Σίγουρα δυσκολεύομαι και εγώ όπως όλοι γιατί γενικότερα δεν καθόμουν πολύ σπίτι . Παρ'όλα αυτά ακούω πολύ μουσική , παίζω πολύ μουσική και βγαίνω έξω για να πάω να τρέξω ή να περπατήσω.<br />
<br />
<b>Lucas Wolve</b> : Καλησπέρα Μιχάλη και σε ευχαριστώ που μου δίνεις το βήμα . Για την γενιά μας αυτό που περνάμε τώρα είναι κάτι το πρωτόγνωρο. Μετά την πανδημία του 1918 που χάθηκαν τόσοι άνθρωποι και δεδομένου της εξέλιξης της ιατρικής θα πίστευε κανείς οτι θα είμασταν πιο προετοιμασμένοι για τη νέα πανδημία. Μπροστά στη φύση όμως είμαστε όλοι αδύναμοι και δυστυχώς χάνονται τόσοι άνθρωποι με σκληρό τρόπο.Με πετυχαίνεις 15 μέρες σε προληπτική καραντίνα. Μένω μέσα και αυτό με όλα τα κακά που έχει ο παρατεταμένος εγκλεισμός, όμως θα μείνω όσο χρειάζεται για να περάσει.<br />
<br />
<b>Nikos Marinos : </b>Καλησπέρα φίλε Μιχάλη, όντως βρισκόμαστε σε μια δύσκολη περίοδο για όλο το κόσμο. Προσπαθώ να προσαρμοστώ στα νέα δεδομένα , να ακολουθώ τις οδηγίες, να διαβάζω και να αθλούμαι στο σπίτι. Διαχειρίζομαι την κατάσταση με θετική ενέργεια.<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Nikolas Perlepe : </b>Να είσαι καλά, εγώ ευχαριστώ για την πρόσκληση.<o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Μένω και εγώ όπως οι περισσότεροι στο σπίτι. Είναι μια καλή
ευκαιρία να μελετήσω περισσότερο κιθάρα, να δω ταινίες και να μαγειρέψω νόστιμα
φαγητά. Θα βγω απ το σπίτι όταν έρθει η ώρα, πιο χονδρός αλλά καλύτερος κιθαρίστας
και με μια ολοκληρωμένη άποψη για τον κινηματογράφο.</div>

<b>- Σε αυτή τα πρωτόγνωρα για όλη τη ανθρωπότητα σκηνικά που ζούμε , βλέπουμε αρκετούς να μη μπορούν να το διαχειριστούν, μένοντας μέσα σπίτι τους. Τι συμβουλές θα τους έδινες, ώστε να γίνει πιο εύκολη η διαβίωση τους μέσα στο σπίτι και να είναι ήρεμοι;</b><br />
<b><br /></b><b>Giannis Papadimitriou</b> : Υπομονή περισσότερο. Πιστεύω πως αν καθίσουμε και σκεφτούμε σοβαρά τι επιπτώσεις θα έχουμε αν κολλήσουμε εμείς ή οι γονείς μας πχ. γιατί είναι κάτι πολύ σοβαρό σίγουρα, θα καλμάρουμε λίγο.<br />
<br />
<b>Lucas Wolve : </b>Είμαι ένας άνθρωπος που λατρεύω το έξω και πράγματι ζορίζομαι όμως από το πρώτο κρούσμα που ακούστηκε στην Ελλάδα, πολύ πριν επέλθει η απαγόρευση κυκλοφορίας έμεινα μέσα και προετοιμάστηκα.Το δύσκολο για όσους έχουν οικογένεια είναι να μιλήσουν στα παιδιά τους για όλες τις άμεσες αλλαγές που βιώνουμε και τις έμμεσες που θα βιώσουμε τους επόμενες μήνες. Συνειδητοποίησα ότι το μόνο που έχει πραγματικά σημασία είναι να παραμείνουμε υγιείς και να μην διασπείρουμε τον ιό σε άλλους.Προσπαθώ να εστιάσω μόνο σε αυτό, βοηθά πολύ. Κάποιοι θα πουν, έχω υποστεί τεράστια οικονομική ζημιά, σε λίγο δεν θα έχω να φάω κτλ. και έχουν δίκιο.Όμως πιστεύω ακράδαντα οτι αν έχουμε την υγεία μας μπορούμε να διαχειριστούμε καλά τα υπόλοιπα. Δεν ωφελεί να απελπιζόμαστε ακόμα για τα υπόλοιπα. Αρχικά να διασφαλίσουμε οτι παίρνουμε τα κατάλληλα μέτρα και να ακούμε φυσικά μόνο τους ειδικούς.<br />
<br />
<b>Nikos Marinos : </b>Διαχειρίζομαι την κατάσταση με θετική ενέργεια. Οι συμβουλές που δίνω είναι αρχικά η θετική σκέψη, Ψυχραιμία και ψυχοπνευματική καλλιέργεια σε όλες και όλους.<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Nikolas Perlepe : </b>Ας κάνει ο καθένας οτι του είχε λείψει περισσότερο. Αυτό που
λέμε «φυσιολογική ζωή» απέχει απ αυτό που είναι στα αλήθεια μια φυσιολογική ζωή.
Γερνάμε ανταλλάζοντας το χρόνο μας με χρήμα και ζούμε ζωή γεμάτη με υποκατάστατα
ιδανικής διασκέδασης. Για να ξεχνάμε πόσο χρόνο πετάξαμε χθες βαφτίζουμε την κατάσταση
αυτή «κανονικότητα». Ε, για όσο χρειαστεί φτιάξτε μια νέα κανονικότητα, αυτή είναι
η συμβουλή μου. <o:p></o:p></div>

<b>-Πιστεύεις πως αυτά που ζούμε θα μπορούσαν να αποτελέσουν πηγή έμπνευσης για κάτι δημιουργικό; Γενικά αυτή τη περίοδο πως κινείσαι σε μουσικό επίπεδο;</b><br />
<b><br /></b><b>Giannis Papadimitriou: </b>Σε μουσικό επίπεδο ευτυχώς είχα αρκετές ιδέες την προηγούμενη χρονιά οπότε τώρα προσθέτω λεπτομέρειες στι ήδη υπάρχον υλικό,όπως επίσης σιγά σιγά γράφω στίχους αν και δεν βλέπω να επηρεάζομαι από την υπάρχουσα κατάσταση.<br />
<br />
<b>Lucas Wolve :</b> Ίσως είναι ιδανικής περίοδος να γραφτεί ο τρίτος δίσκος. Λεφτά δε ξέρω που θα βρούμε δεδομένου των συνθηκών(γέλια) αλλά η έμπνευση είναι αστείρευτη.Αυτή την περίοδο που μένω σπίτι δουλεύω από το σπίτι,διαβάζω τα παιδιά μου και τα βράδια πιάνω την κιθάρα και συνθέτω. Καλό είναι τώρα περισσότερο από ποτέ να κάνουμε όσα πράγματα δεν προλαβαίναμε όταν τρέχαμε έξω.<br />
<br />
<b>Nikos Marinos :</b>Θεωρώ πως η πηγή έμπνευσης για έναν καλλιτέχνη πρέπει να είναι συνεχής σε οποιαδήποτε χρονική περίοδο. Τους τελευταίους μήνες είμαι σε δημιουργική φάση και ετοιμάζω σιγά σιγά το νέο μου άλμπουμ που θα φέρει τίτλο "2020 hopes".<br />

<br />
<b>Lucas Wolve :</b>Μετά από κάθε μπόρα βγαίνει το ουράνιο τόξο. Μείνετε μέσα , προστατέψτε τους γύρω σας και θα είναι ένας άγνωστος εχθρός που όμως νικιέται. Θέλει τον χρόνο του. Εύχομαι μετά από αυτό να βγούμε καλύτεροι άνθρωποι, να δούμε αλλιώς τη σχέση μας με τη φύση και τους γύρω μας.<br />

<b>- Hello and thank you for this talk. To start with, i know that is difficult situation for all of us and we hope for the better. So what are you doing now that we all stay inside our houses? how is this situation for you? </b></div>

<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Giannis Papadimitriou</b> : Hello Michael. For sure is difficult for me as for everyone else because i wasn't the guy that stays home a lot. In this this situation i listen a lot of music , i play music and i go out to run or to walk.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Lucas Wolve</b> : Hello Michael and thanks you that you give me the opportunity to talk. For our generation is a first time seen situation. After Pandemic of 1918 where many people lost their lives and having in mind the evolution of medical science someone would believe that we would be prepared for a new pandemic. In the face of nature ,however, we are all weak and unfortunately so many people are lost in a cruel way. I'm 15 in preventive quarantine. I stay inside my home with all the bad that brings this polonged incarceration but i will stay as long as it needs.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Nikos Marinos : </b>Hello Michael. It is indeed a difficult situation, for all of us. I'm trying to adjust to this new situation, follow the orders, to read and to doing excersise inside my home. I manage all this with positive energy.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Nikolas Perlepe : </b>Thank you for the invitation. I stay, as most of us, inside. I find it a good opportunity to study more on guitar, see movies and cook delicious foods. I will go out when the time is right , fat but a better guitarist and with a comprehensive view of cinema.</div>

<b>- In this unprecedented scene for all of humanity, we see many who cannot manage it, staying inside their home. What advice would you give them to make their lives easier and calmer?</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Giannis Papadimitriou</b> : Patience more. I believe that if we sit down and think seriously about the consequences we will have if we or our parents get stuck, for example, because it is something very serious for sure, we will calm down a bit.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<b>Nikos Marinos : </b>I manage the situation with positive energy. The advice I give is initially positive thinking, Calmness and spiritual cultivation to all and sundry.<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Nikolas Perlepe : </b>Let everyone do what they missed the most. What we call "normal life" is far from what a normal life is. We age by exchanging our time for money and live a life full of ideal entertainment substitutes. To forget how much time we spent yesterday, we call this situation "normalcy." Well, for as long as you need to make a new regularity, this is my advice <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<b>Lucas Wolve : </b><b> </b>I am a person who loves the outside world and i am really stressed by the first case tha was heard in Greece.Long before the traffic ban came i stayed inside and prepared. The difficult thing for those who have a family is to talk to their children about all the immediate changes we are experiencing and the indirect ones we will experience in the coming months. I realized that the only thing that really matters is staying healthy and not spreading the virus to others. I try to focus only on that, it helps a lot. Some will say, "i have suffered huge financial losses" , "i will not have anything to eat" etc etc. and they are right. But firmly belive that if we have out health we can manage the rest. There is no poing in despairing about the rest. First of all, make sure that we take the apprpriate measures and, of course listen only to the experts.<br />
<br />
<b>-Do you think that what we live in could be a source of inspiration for something creative? In general, how do you move on a musical level at this time?</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b><br /></b>
<b>Giannis Papadimitriou: </b>On a musical level, fortunately I had a lot of ideas last year, so now I'm adding details to the already existing material, as well as slowly writing lyrics, although I don't see myself being influenced by the current situation<br />
<br />
<b>Lucas Wolve :</b> .Maybe it's an ideal time to write the third album. Money I do not know where to find given the conditions (laughs) but the inspiration is endless. This time I live at home I work from home, I read my children and at night I pick up the guitar and compose. It is better now than ever to do what we did not manage to do when we ran out.<br />
<br />
<b>Nikos Marinos :</b>I believe that the source of inspiration for an artist must be continuous at all times. In the last few months I am in a creative phase and I am slowly preparing my new album that will be titled "2020 hopes".<br />
<br />
<b style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14.6667px;">Nikolas Perlepe : </b><span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px;">Of course they could, you have time to think and that in itself makes you creative.

<b><br /></b></div>

<b>Giannis Papadimitriou: </b>Let's be patient, pay attention to vulnerable groups and see a few who are having a harder time than us and are in a worse position lest we appreciate our own situation.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Lucas Wolve :</b>.After each rain, the rainbow comes out. Stay inside, protect those around you and it will be an unknown enemy that is defeated. It needs time. I hope that after that we will get better people, to see our relationship with nature and those around us differently.</div>

<b>Nikolas Perlepe : </b>I WILL NOT SAY "we stay home" ... we hear it so much that in the end it will look like a threat. So I will move on to alternative proposals.

<br />
<b>Pray for the Wicked</b> is the sixth album by American rock band <b>Panic! At the Disco.</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
Before i talk about this recording i want to mention that one of the possitive of the band is that they're trying to change their sound on each album and never stay the same.<br />
<br />
I personally like the bands that they are trying to evolve their sound on each recording (although i have to admit that some bands without changing their sound even a bit they manage to produce so good albums)<br />
<br />
So let's go to this review now!<br />
<a name='more'></a>As i said above the sound is different than their previous recording.<br />
<br />
Each one of the songs on this recording would be as soundtrack on a broadway production. The whole album has a theatrical and old fashioned aura.<br />
<br />
Although the music is ok ,the vocals same , the production and lyrics ok , after finishing this album i felt a bit strange. They could produce something better than this.<br />
<br />
<b>Pray for the Wicked</b> is not a bad recording but when it comes to <b>Panic! at the Disco</b> i expected something better. Maybe you will enjoy it so give it a try. Some tracks are good but in general i think that is a recording that will be easily forgotten.<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Top tracks </b>: Say Amen (Saturday night) , The Overpass<br />
<br />

Michael, it’s a pleasure for me too. Actually I’m not so close yet, but I’m on
the way! (Haha) You’re right though, I’m working on my first album. It’s kinda
project for me and I’m working step by step, track by track. All this started
out of nothing and turned out to be something like a goal for me.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It’s hard because I do all the production,
recordings etc. but I’m so excited! You’re gonna hear the rock’n’roll that’s
inside my heart! So simple!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

interesting the project of your first album. I mean that you find a different
singer for each song of the album. We have seen it in the past by different
artists (Slash, Gus G etc ) but I would like you to tell me what<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>gave you the idea for that.</b><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">-To be
honest, this wasn’t my idea at all! When we were working on the first track
“Hard Rock Ride” with my good friend Johnny Zagkotsis, he gave me the idea
“Hey, why don’t you release it as a solo artist?” So the credits go to Johnny!
Thanks my friend! Haha . So I said to myself to try it out! At this moment I
wanted to thanks one by one <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Johnny
Zagkotsis, Charikleia-Mari Amersa and Panos Kalifis aka Rimo</b> for giving
their voice’s and their hearts for the songs, for trusting me and I wanted to
say that they all ROCK! Thanks guys! You’re all amazing! <o:p></o:p></span><br />

<br />
<b>Vicious</b> is the fourth studio album by American rock band <b>Halestorm.</b><br />
<br />
"<i>In my opinion, this is gonna be the first record... And we always say this, we hope we get better as musicians as we go on, with each record.But this is gonna be the first record where you can really hear all four corners of Halestorm and what makes us a band. And if any of you have ever seen us live, i think this is the closest to what makes us a band. In a lot of these records that we put out, 'Okay, we have a catchy song, and i sing on it' and then that's about it. So there's so many different layers to this record that i'm so proud to show everybody. I think this album is the most Halestorm album we ever did.</i>" , their singer Lzzy Hale said about Vicious.<br />
<br />
Is <b>Vicious</b> Halestorm's best album as Lzzy Hale claims?<br />
<br />
Well let's find it out.<br />
<a name='more'></a><b>Vicious</b> consists of 12 songs and in this recording you will not find a single song that you will say " <i>uhmm ok this song is just ok</i>" .<br />
<br />
Halestorm's previous album <b>Into the Wild Life</b> was a very good one and the expectation for their new album were high. On Vicious it is clear that the band put a great effort to make it better than its predecessor . And they succeed it! .<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
<b>Vicious</b> is by far the band's best album so far. Heavier tunes and <b>Lzzy Hale</b> at her best.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen="" class="YOUTUBE-iframe-video" data-thumbnail-src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/taanowedKoY/0.jpg" frameborder="0" height="350" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/taanowedKoY?feature=player_embedded" width="420"></iframe></div>
<br />
<b>Lzzy Hale</b> is one of the best female voices in modern hard rock and on <b>Vicious</b> she proves that for one more time.<br />
<br />
Without changing their style that made them popular they produced 12 very good and catchy songs.<br />
<br />
As for the lyrics , there are plenty of references to sex , drugs and rock n' roll.<br />
<br />
The album opens with the song <b>Black Vultures</b> ,and with it the band tells you "<i>prepare for something heavier from us</i>", and closes with the emotional baland <b>The Silence</b> ( <b>Heart of Novocaine</b> is the other album's baland) where we can hear Lzzy Hale's vocal range.<br />
<br />
<b>Vicious</b> is a step forward for the band and i definitely wait to hear more great stuff by them in the future. Until then let's hear one more time this album and... enjoy it!!!<br />
<br />
<b>Vicious' tracklist :</b><br />
<br />
1. "Black Vultures" 4:10<br />
2. "Skulls" 3:19<br />
3. "Uncomfortable" 3:40<br />
4. "Buzz" 3:22<br />
5. "Do Not Disturb" 3:23<br />
6. "Conflicted" 3:29<br />
7. "Killing Ourselves to Live" 4:00<br />
8. "Heart of Novocaine" 3:33<br />
9. "Painkiller" 3:13<br />
10. "White Dress" 3:29<br />
11. "Vicious" 3:01<br />

<br />
<br />
Hello people. A few deays ago we had the opportunity to speak with <b>Andreas Papadopoulos</b> , guitarist on the Greek band “<b>Serenity Broken</b>” and we thank him for this interesting interview.<br />
<br />
So here it is :<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
<br />
<b>-Hello Andreas and thank you for being positive on answering our questions.
What are you doing on this time of year? Where do we find Andreas? </b><br />
<br />
Hi Michael and thank you for having me here, it’s always a pleasure talking with you!
At the moment you can find me somewhere in Evoia for my summer holidays. It’s been a long year and finally I can have some time off from everything and enjoy the summer.<br />
<br />
<b> -A year ago, at 27 May 2017 if I am not mistaken, Serenity Broken’s second album RE/define has been released. ( </b><i>You can read this album's full review here </i><b>: </b><a href="http://metalhall.blogspot.com/2017/05/serenity-broken-redefine-album-review.html" style="font-weight: bold;" target="_blank">http://metalhall.blogspot.com/2017/05/serenity-broken-redefine-album-review.html</a><b> )</b><br />
<b>At this time, after a year what are people’s thoughts about this album? How the audience reacted to this recording? </b><br />
<br />
Yes, it’s been over a year since RE/Define’s release and the response of the people was overwhelming! Besides the press, webzines, magazines and music reviewers everyone in our environment had something positive to mention, always something different whether it was about the songs structure, production or something that they came up with. We are truly grateful for all the positive feedback, that means the world to us!<br />
<br />
<b> -Which is your favorite song of this album and which one of Serenity Broken’s both albums and why? </b><br />
<br />
Oh man, that’s damn hard, but I’ll try to deal with it! I would probably say “<b>Faint Slit</b>” from RE/Define and generally from both albums I’d pick, let’s say “<b>Alone?</b>” and try not to think twice!(laughs!) “Faint Slit” has something simple and straight forward thing that’s get me into it. It has the addictive opening melody and the hard palm muting parts at the verses and a strong chorus. A successful recipe if you ask me. At the other hand “Alone?” contains more elements and it elevates from time to time. From the massive intro part to a much more atmospheric verse, then back to the prechorus and to a great chorus and in the end a breakdown! Man, we did it all in this song! (laughs!)
<br />
<br />

<br />
<b>-I read somewhere that you have a new member on Serenity Broken. Would you like to talk to me about that? </b><br />
<br />
Yes sir you are correct! We have a new drummer and his name is Thomas Halans!
Thomas is a brilliant kick ass drummer that you will have to check him out in close to see what is all about! We are lucky to have a guy such talented in the band, he will sure raise the bar a lot! You can check out his Youtube channel! ( <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/tomashalandrums" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/user/tomashalandrums</a> )<br />
<br />
<b> -Last year, when we talked again ,you mentioned that one of your goal for the future is to promote your new material by making as many as possible gigs you can do in every possible place. So after a year is this goal fulfilled ? Are you satisfied with Redefine’s promotion? </b><br />
<br />
It’s kinda difficult to answer you that because that’s in my nature, I’m never satisfied when it comes to band goals and stuff like that. As an independent band with no record label behind us we tried every possible way to promote our band, the album and so on. Our abilities are limited due to the fact that we are not a label neither a professional agent or any other stuff like that but we still trying and fighting for it. Promo was ok but it could have been better. We keep on trying but our main goal is to create the music we love.<br />

<b> -Your second album was released 5 years after your debut album. Any plans about a third album? Don’t tell me that you consider taking another so long break between your second and your third album!!! Redefine was a so good recording that I think earned you many new fans including myself. We demand an answer!! (haha I’m just joking !) </b><br />
<br />
Now that is a true demand!(laughs!). By now we have almost 8-9 songs partially structured and I’m pretty sure that it won’t take us so long for a new record. I can’t give you a prediction but it won’t be that long for sure! If we did make a living from music things would have been different but we keep on working on our primary jobs to fulfill the band’s goals.<br />
<br />
<b>-What are your future plans about the rest of the year? </b><br />
<br />
At the moment we are working some of the new tunes and rehearsing for any upcoming shows that may occur. We are also making preparations for a new music video that will be soon available online.<br />

<br />
<b>Sense of Fear</b> is a Heavy Metal band that was formed in 1998 in Kozani, Greece.<br />
<br />
Their debut album “<b>As The Ages Passing By…</b>” is a result of almost 20 years working hard on the songs, each one picked up carefully and with a unique story to tell, alongside a deep feeling within.<br />
<br />
“<i>Fear is a key instinct for humans to survive</i>” as they say. <span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 13pt;"> </span><br />

All the lyrics come from personal experiences and emotions, and this is a way to express themselves and fight their personal demons, the band states.<br />

<br />
Their debut album “<b>As The Ages Passing By…</b>” was released via Rockshots Records on April 20, 2018.<br />
<br />
And now more details about this Greek band :<br />
<br />
The band's original name was <b>Holy Prophecy</b> and founding members were
<b>Giannis Kikis</b> - Guitars & Vocals , <b>Themis Iakovidis</b> - Guitars, <b> Markos Kikis</b> - Drums.<br />
<br />
During their early period they composed their first 2 songs, entitled "Lord of the World" and "Holy Prophecy" (music & lyrics by Giannis Kikis).<br />
<br />
One year later, in 1999, Lazos K. joined the band as a vocalist.<br />
<br />
Then there was the time when they came up with the songs "<b>Sense of Fear</b>" (music Giannis, lyrics Lazos / Giannis) and "<b>Slaughter of Innocence</b>" (music & lyrics by Giannis Kikis), and they decided to rename the band into SENSE OF FEAR.<br />
<br />
During the same year there were two more member additions
Antonis K. Bass
Kostas Μ. 3rd Guitar
And that was the lineup till 2003.<br />
<br />
In 2003, Lazos Kostas and Antonis all left the band, and Asteris Z. joined, taking up vocals.<br />
There were some shows and a rehearsal recording in the next 2 years, till 2005, when Asteris quited and Dimitris G. joined in Bass.<br />
<br />
2006 was a productive year in music terms, with 3 more complete songs being composed by Giannis Kikis: "<b>Torture of Mind</b>", "<b>As the ages passing by, time still runs against u</b>s" and "<b>Few against many</b>".<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
One year later, Manos fills in the position of the vocalist, to help the band with some live shows like the one in "wall Club", Ptolemaida.<br />
<br />
From 2007 to 2012, there was a period of inactivity for Sense of fear.<br />
<br />
But it was only a matter of time till the band came alive and back on the road.<br />
<br />
In early 2013, Ilias K. joined the band as a vocalist and the current line up for Sense of Fear is :<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Giannis Kikis</b> - Guitars<br />
<b>Themis Iakovidis</b> - Guitars<br />
<b>Markos Kikis</b> - Drums<br />
<b>Dimitris Gkatziaris</b> - Bass<br />
<b>Ilias Kytidis</b> - Vocals<br />
<br />
Go hear them and...enjoy!<br />

<br />
<b>2015</b> : The year that the Swedish band <b>Ghost </b>released their amazing third album Meliora. Back then i was talking about how amazed i was about this recording and how difficult would be for the band to record an even better album in the future.<br />
<br />
<b>2016</b> : <b>Popestar</b>. An EP that had only one original track ( Square hammer) and the other four were cover songs. But the song <b>Square hammer</b> was more than enough for me to make me wonder how great would be their fourth album cause for me was one of the hit songs of the 2016!<br />
<br />
<b>2018</b> : At last their fourth album is out. And its name? <br />
<a name='more'></a><b>Prequelle</b> .<br />
<br />
The band with several videos before their album relsease introduce us their new singer, <b>Cardinal Copia .</b><br />
<b><br /></b>

Did you hear it many times? are you now ready to continue reading my review? What? do you want to hear it again? well read first and then go back to your dance!!!<br />
<br />
Ok then let's continue with the review!!<br />
<br />
This album constists of 10 songs and they are 2 excellent cover songs in the deluxe slbum version so in my opinion go grab the deluxe without second thought! ( A <b>Pet Shop Boys</b>' cover song and a <b>Leonard Cohen</b>'s cover song !!).<br />
<br />
Among these 10 songs are the excellent instrumental songs, <b>Miasma</b> , <b>Helvetesfonster (</b>close your eyes while you're hearing to this and anjoy a moment of magic!) <b> </b>and the track 1 that is an intro to this new Ghost's journey! ( <b>Ashes</b>).<br />
<br />
What to say about this recording.... Excellent performance by Cardinal Copia or Tobias Forge if you prefere(he is the man behind the mask) , great music and the lyrics in Ghost's unique style . We have a full package that will satisfy everyone!<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<b>In conclution</b>: After <b>Meloria</b> i didn't expect to say that but ... <b>Prequelle</b> is an even better album . For sure the best Ghost album until now!! As for the best song in this recording i would say all of them if ...if <b>Dance Macabre</b> wouldn't have been written !!! Well done Ghost!! Looking forward to see you perform it on stage!!!<br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #212121; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Recently they released their first album titled "<b>Open Arms</b>" and let's talk about it.</span></span></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #212121; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #212121; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">It consists of 10 songs (one is basically a extended version of an already existing) in heavy rock / metal style as I mentioned above. When the album starts while listening to the first notes of <b>Alpha</b>, which is the song that opens the album, you get positive emotions. </span></span></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #212121; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;">You get a smile while their singer starts singing cause something so beautiful has just started.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="color: #212121; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="background-color: white; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #212121; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="background-color: white; white-space: pre-wrap;">"<i>This song is so good. I wonder if the rest of this album will be so good as this</i>", you think.</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #212121; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">And indeed the whole album continues like this. The second song "<b>in the blink of a life</b>", which is even better than the first( one of this album's hit songs in my opinion), opens even more your appetite to get lost in the band's music world and "devour" their music food they serve. And they do not disappoint you.</span></span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #212121; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Good production, excellent music and a great voice combined with good lyrics that give us a result that will please everyone .
At this point, I want to emphasize that because I love the bands with female vocals when it happens to listen to such a band, I become tougher in my criticism to overcome this love and be as objective as possible.</span></span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #212121; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Disillusive Play managed to create so many positive emotions to me while listening to their debut album and also to throw away any concern i had. since it is a recording that has nothing to envy on anything comparing to the succesfully ones. </span></span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #212121; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">We hear an excellent result and they deserve every good word we say about them!!</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #212121; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #212121; white-space: pre-wrap;">T</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #212121; white-space: pre-wrap;">heir sound surely remind us of bands such as evanescence . Lacuna coil etc and i bet they had some influences from these bands, but that does not diminish their very good effort and the even better result.</span></span><br />

<br />
It was a magic night. A unique experience. I will try to say a few words about what i experienced that night without to spoil anything( i hope to achieve that) because i think that is something that everyone must see... So..<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
<b>17-3-2018 </b><br />
<br />
<b>20:50</b> : I have already bought my ticket and i'm ready to get into the theater where this concert is about to take place. I can't wait to live this experience. I've heard so many great things about <b>Dirty Granny Tales</b>' shows and is a while i'm about to find out if they are true or not. I saw some videos on youtube and offcourse their trailer for this show and now.. i'm here to see them live.<br />
<br />
<b>21:05</b> : The doors open and me and the other 149 people ,that were waiting (it was another sold out night ) outside the theater ,enter. We sit in our seats. I can't wait fot the show to start. I smile like a child. I see the instruments on the stage. Where is the band ?? I can't wait !! Come on guys, start!!<br />
<br />
<b>21:20</b> : All the people are on their seats and the show finally starts. What i'm gonna see? In a theatrical way every member enters the stage and goes to his instrument. Without to say a word to us the music starts. The show finally started!!! I'm about to hear and see the faitytale i came for...<br />
Puppets on stage , a dancer, animations on the video wall and offcourse music so they can tell us their story... Granny i'm here to hear my tale!!<br />
<br />
<b>22:32</b> : The show is over. I'm so amazed. It was an unique faitytale i would say. Dirty Granny Tales' fairytale .The show is over and i want more and more and i bet i'm not the only one with those feelings. They say goodbye to us on their own way and we cheer to show them our love, to thank them for this show. I can't wait to see them again next time.<br />
<br />
In conclusion <b>Dirty Granny Tales</b>' show is a mixture of so many elements (Japanese theatrics, gothic music, black music, animation etc) .bound so good together . Is a unique fairytale performed on stage. I was amazed with their music too.<br />

<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Hello mate, it ‘s a pleasure for me as well! </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">It ‘s been almost 5 years since we started the band. People seem to
enjoy what we ‘re doing so far, our fans and friends keep increasing and
expanding both here in Greece as well as abroad. As time goes by and we evolve,
apart from the symphonic or female fronted metal fans, I find that more people
that listen to other genres seem to like our music. And it always feels
rewarding. I don’t believe in genres much, there ‘s music that attracts our
ears and music that doesn’t. Most people I ‘ve met seem to be attracted to our
stuff, so I ‘m happy.</span><o:p></o:p></div>

Ventus were great, people liked them a lot. It was great, for us and the fans
from what I ‘ve heard. The place was full, people enjoyed it much, we could see
many of them singing the lyrics with Iliana which means they really knew the
tracks. We played stuff from both our albums plus one cover, apx. 80 minutes.

appearance so far.</span><o:p></o:p></div>

in many European shows and festivals but it will be our first European tour as
you said. </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We ‘ll visit Finland for 3 shows if I ‘m not mistaken, Sweden for 2 shows,
Latvia, Lithuania and Esthonia, and the cool thing is we ‘ve never been there

<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">What happened was that the agency had seen us perform in Belgium or the
U.K.,</span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">I ‘m not sure which one, Chiara who is a good friend of ours performed
with us both on “Showdown” from “Arakhne” as well as on stage in 2016. So they
had heard about us. It ‘s not easy to get on such a roster, there are countless
bands that<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>really want to be on such a
tour. So, according to what a band has done, it either gets picked or not . We
got to talking with the agency and were in a long list of bands from which they
‘d pick the ones that would join the tour, and we got the gig. </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">And as I said earlier we ‘re very happy for that.</span><br />

will have as much fun as we will. As for surprises, we played an almost
unrehearsed cover on our last gig in Athens, Lady-Gaga-meets-extreme-metal kind
of crossover, and it was a huge success. I don’t know if we ‘ll play this one

<br />
Above all i want to thank Bass player <b>Chili</b> of the Greek stoner band <b>Beggars </b>and the performer <b>Dimitris Ravikakis</b> the also Greek band<b> Dope Default</b> that were so possitive to answer my questions . Thank you guys and wish you the best! So...<br />
<br />
Here are the questions :<br />
<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<b>-Which one do you prefer the most and why? Summer or winter?</b><br />
<br />
<b style="text-align: right;">Chili : </b>Winter suits as better 100%! We like cold weather… It’s one more reason to drink your booze in order to get warm, so you can drink more!!<br />
<br />
<br />
<b style="text-align: right;">Dimitris Ravikakis : </b>Well...to be really honest...although every season year round has its magic moments...lets face it...summer kicks butt...especially when you 're rocking on stage<br />
<br />
<b> -Which was your best moment in 2017?</b><br />
<br />
<b style="text-align: right;">Chili : </b>2017 is for us a year full of surprises (interview was taken at late October)… Happy and less happy ones. For the time speaking we had a great time during our Acoustic Tour which lasted about 60 gigs, but because we’re an electric band our best moments took place in the last 3, full band, gigs with our new drummer Mike Kasvikis in Athens, Kozani, Thessaloniki.<br />
<br />
<b style="text-align: right;">Dimitris Ravikakis : </b>I think the best moment so far was at the begining when we all got together and after 2 or 3 jams we realized that this is it...the chemistry...the passion and dedication to do what we love is right there by each and every one of us...<br />
<br />
<br />
<b> -What do you do on your free time?</b> <b>(Something that probably relaxes you) </b><br />
<br />
<b style="text-align: right;">Chili : </b>Watching movies, listening to music, drinking booze in Menudo Rock Bar!<br />
<br />
<b style="text-align: right;">Dimitris Ravikakis : </b>Personally on my free time i like to watch the sun and the sky...empty my mind and just feel...other times i grab a guitar and i come up with ideas for new songs...one thing for sure though...there is this moment in the morning when i wake up and prepair my coffee to enjoy with a couple of cigarettes and believe me...that moment is when i let nothing interrupt that...lol<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b> -Which are your 3 favorite songs?</b><br />
<br />
<b style="text-align: right;">Chili : </b>Of all time? Very general question… I would say: Kashmir – Led Zeppelin, The Wizard – Black Sabbath and Been Too Long On The Road – Bread.<br />
<br />
<b style="text-align: right;">Dimitris Ravikakis : </b>Woow....Thats a tough one for me really...i dont know if i can squeeze what i like in just 3 songs...i like so many songs...from a lot of genres...i ll try to give it a shot though with songs i can listen to many times in a row... Dio - Sacred Heart BLS - Crazy Horse Whitesnake - Aint no love in the heart of the city<br />
<br />
<b> -Name us 2 artists or groups that you admire their work(and maybe inspired you in some way)</b><br />
<br />
<b style="text-align: right;">Chili : </b>The Beatles, Led Zeppelin.<br />
<br />
<b style="text-align: right;">Dimitris Ravikakis : </b>Weeell...again...i admired so many of them over the years...i would say that the one who really insired me to get involved with music was my father...he s a musician too but since we re talking about bands or artists widely known i would say that Iron Maiden...Black Sabbath and Metallica have been my main influences and inspirators...oops...sorry you said 2...ha ha ha<br />
<br />
<b>-Want to share with us one of your big dreams?</b> <b>What do are you planning to succeed on the following years?</b><br />
<br />
<b style="text-align: right;">Chili : </b>Our big dream’s title is: Sky is the limit. I believe you can get what we mean. For now the only thing we have in mind is the recording of our new album which will take place in the following weeks.<br />
<br />
<b style="text-align: right;">Dimitris Ravikakis: </b>One of my big dreams up ahead is to perform in front of thousand of friends and share our music...<br />
<br />
<b>-Any music plans for the rest of this year?</b><br />
<br />
<b style="text-align: right;">Chili : </b>Recording our 5th album and playing as many gigs as we can.<br />
<br />
<b style="text-align: right;">Dimitris Ravikakis : </b>As a band our plans are to continue doing what we love so much and share our music around the world...and concerts...lots and lots of concerts all around<br />
<br />
<b> -How hard do you think is for a new artist to be known on the Greek audience and how hard is for him/her/them to be known worldwide?</b><br />
<br />
<b style="text-align: right;">Chili : </b>It’s all about how committed you are in yourself and your band. You have to work really hard and we believe you have to play as many gigs as you can, so you can travel and reach to everyone’s ears. Then people decide if they like you or not. The more you play the “easier” it gets to make a fan base and then make it bigger…<br />
<br />
<b style="text-align: right;">Dimitris Ravikakis : </b>Its a long way to the top if you wanna rock and roll as the mighty AC/DC sung back in the days... As for Greece...well it was difficult to be recognised here in Greece due to the fact that the entertaintment is based mostly on folklor music but the latest years more and more people and places open their arms in rock music and its easier now to be heard around but you still have to work hard about it... As for worldwide...its still hard and needs a lot of work but if you re good in what you do other people will respect that and recognise you...and of course lets not forget that internet nowadays is a powerfull tool to get you there...but still...you have to work hard and love what you do...<br />
<br />
<b>-I would like to share with us a funny moment that happened on a gig (a crazy fan perhaps or something else )</b><br />
<br />
<b style="text-align: right;">Chili : </b>The moment(s) when Yannis fell on stage during a festival in Thessaloniki. You can watch them here (yes we recorded them and used them in one of our video clips): <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUo-WwYja1Q" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUo-WwYja1Q</a><br />
<br />
<b style="text-align: right;">Dimitris Ravikakis : </b>Well things happen in gigs you know...girls screaming and teasing etc etc...so far i never experienced something crazy crazy perse...but...there was this time when we played open doors in a concert and this old skinny guy (and probably had a lot of beers) was right in front of me where i was singing...and you could tell he was not a rocker but he was enjoying all of this and he was dancing and banging his head and jumping up and down with a big smile on his face...he was really living the moment thats for sure...i liked the freedom he was radiating...!!!<br />
<br />
<b>Thank you for answering my questions. It was a pleasure and a honor for me and I wish you all the best!</b><br />
<br />
<b style="text-align: right;">Chili : </b>Thank you for your support!!! Rock on!!!!<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<b>Dolores O Riordan </b>, the voice of Irish group <b>The Cranberries </b>died at 46 age!!<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
So young , i could not believe it when i read it! She died at her hotel room at London while she was there for recording sessions. ( She was about to record a version of <b>Zombie</b> with the rock band <b>Bad Wolves</b> ).<br />
<br />
We heard those news from her agency. Police said that there is nothing suspicious about her death until now...<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I bet you have already read so many about her... She was a unique voice , a voice that when you hear for a first time you can't help it but to fall in love with her...<br />
<br />
So many great songs , so many more to give in music but but.... why?<br />
<br />
We do not know yet the reason of her death but that does not matter i bet to most of you... a loss is a loss... and what a loss.<br />
<br />
So many great songs with the Cranberries to remember so many good moments ,so many feelings when hearing to their music...when hearing her angelic voice....<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I had the pleasure to see her ,to hear her, on stage when she came as solo artist in Greece , as well when Cranberries were again together and came for a concert in Greece. I will keep these moments forever in my heart. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Maybe some day i will write more about Dolores O Riordan my favorite female singer of all time but not today.. today i will take another journey while hearing her voice ,i will cry, i will smile for all the moments i had , all the feelings i had when i was hearing to The Cranberries..... </div>

<br />
<br />
<br />
Although i did not really like Arch Enemy( After this album i think i will give them a second chance and hear their older albums again) , their new album Will Of Power just..impressed me!!<br />
<br />
Their tenth album and the second one with Alissa White -Gluz as their singer and on this one i must admit that she is just marvelous. She even wrote the lyrics on some of album's songs (please let her do it again) and the result is beyond good. Great music , lyrics and a album that is a must hear. Repeat , repeat, repeat!!<br />
<br />
If you haven't hear it yet then well....what are you waiting for?<br />
<br />

<br />
A different recording than Eluveitie's usual style and on the same path that their album Evocation I that they released many years before (Back in 2009) . They sing in celtic language and this recording is inspired by the Norse mythology. Not exactly a metal album but a more folk one i would say. So why is my second favorite album of 2017?<br />
<br />
Cause Eluveitie know how to write good songs ,cause they know how to make you wanna get lost on their rythm, cause they write songs that you are gonna love and dance with them. If you want to spent your evening hearing to a different album , if you want to dance on folk rythms ,if you want to hear something real interesting and good then this album is for you!!<br />
<br />
<b>Top tracks</b> : Epona, Lvgvs, Catvrix<br />

<br />
And the winner is <b>Dropckick Murphys</b>!!<br />
<br />
The album i enjoyed the most during 2017 is their ninth studio album <b>11 Short Stories Od Blood & Glory.</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
This is a fantastic album. (you can read my full review here: <a href="http://metalhall.blogspot.gr/2017/01/dropkick-murphys-11-short-stories-of.html" target="_blank">http://metalhall.blogspot.gr/2017/01/dropkick-murphys-11-short-stories-of.html</a> )<br />
<br />
38:51 minutes of pure madness and punk. One of the band's best album(if not the best). 11 diamonds! 11 songs to make you...well somethimes is hard to express with words the feelings that you have after hearing a great song so imagine after hearing 11!!!<br />
<br />
Although this album was released on January i coundn't find another recording during 2017 that was better that this!! I like Dropkick Murphys' style i like their music and i loved this one.<br />
<br />
Do yourselves a favor. After reading this go and hear this album and you will not regret it!! And maybe after hearing to this you will be just like me... speechless, amazed and you will find hard to express with words how greeat album is !!!<br />

<b>God In A Cone :</b><br />
<br />
"<i>2nd of november was a great day for god in a cone.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>It was the first official show opening for such a commercial band like Igorrr with such a great magnitude of audience. Furthermore the setlist was minimal due to limited amount of time as an opening act!</i><br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<i>But the result was outstanding since the musical selections covered songs from all the discography. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Moreover with the additional guitar help of the session player Achilleas Diamanteas the sound of GIC enriched with powerful dynamics and left the audience with a respective amount of joy and rocking mood.</i><br />

fact that you need to have good REALLY good music ,that people besides your mom
your girlfriend/boyfriend and friends like, you need to have the whole package!
A good image, a good production of the album, nice artwork AND you have to be
awesome when you play live, you also need to be available all the time to tour
and to invest MONEY on your band. If you have all the above then you have a
good and strong foundation to start with. Then you need a strong and
sustainable online presence, you need to MASTER your social media network (
Facebook,Twitter,Instagram etc) in order to get people attracted to your music
and be potential superfans! I’ve recently started taking online marketing and social media management
courses to achieve my goals. Nobody will love and care for my band more than I
do so I need to know as much as possible when it comes to promotion and

<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">A new recording from "<b>The Cranberries</b>" !! I love this band and i was so happy whan i heard about this release.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>-Actually is a cd containing some of the band's known songs in an alternative version(acoustic)</i> , some people would say.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Yes this is true but we have also three new songs in this cd. And if they are good i think everyone will be satisfied. Are they? Let's find out!</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">As a previously mentioned in this cd we find 10 classic Cranberries' hits in an acoustic version ( i loved them once again. So many good memories, so many happy thoughts. ) and 3 new songs. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">So let's find out if the new are good :</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">-<b>The Glory</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Reminded me of the old Cranberries days. The music is good and the lyrics are typical Dolores' lyrics we all know and love ( and not those i read on <b>Roses</b> album and i was like "<i>wtf she just said in the song???</i>")</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>75</b>/100</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">-<b>Rupture</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Another good song. I loved the piano in this. The weakest among the 3 new songs but still a good song. Close your eyes and enjoy it.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>70</b>/100 </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><span style="font-family: inherit;">-Why</span></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">In one word? <b>A masterpiece!</b> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The best of the 3 new and i think that fits on the Cranberries' old great days just fine. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Is like you hear a song for the past. Nostalgic, beautiful, perfect!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">It makes you say "<i>if you still can write songs like this then i want to hear full length Cranberries album and i want it now!</i> "</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">That music, the lyrics, Dolores' angelic voice....If you haven't hear to it yet whqat are you waiting for!!! Go Go GO!!!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">It was the albums' single promotion and i could not find a better song to choose for promotion. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The music is great,the lyrics... It became one of my Cranberries' best songs ever! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>95</b>/100</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>In conclusion : </b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Nostalgia. After hearing to this album your mind flies to the past... to the good Cranberries moments...</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">A good recording and the 3 new songs are so good that you want more and more. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">After their album <b>Roses</b>(2012) i was dissapointed (only 4 songs out of 11 were good) but now? </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Now i'm so happy and i hope that <b>The Cranberries</b> will consider to record a new album!!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Hello there! Recently i decided to create a project. A few questions that would be answered by many Greek artists(As many as possible!!) . I was glad that most of the artists i asked to participate to my project were more than possitive and i thank them so much!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The artists that answered to my questions are the following :</span></span><br />

although I work long hours and have to fit everything into schedule, I like the
events, the night life, the people crowding small venues and clubs, and I
really do like rain, a lot. But I hate, utterly hate, wind. So.. a like and

others, but I can say, to my humble opinion, that some of the most celebrates
artists in Greece and not only, actually don’t make sense, whereas some other
artists remain neglected. So to answer the question, it is very hard, and no
matter how hard you work for it, no one can guarantee you that you will make
it, although it actually does not matter, after all, as we don’t make art to be
famous (well, artists don’t, entertainers might), we do it because we can’t

not very successful, resulting in a very icy-cold audience staring at me,
puzzled (no, I won’t share the joke with you, I swore I’d never say it ever
again!). During the summer tours, where
not everything works properly, lots of things tend to fall off stage.. my keys
(electro – nord) have fallen of their stand (yes, I tend to play a bit..
violently), my laptop has fallen of its rack, music and mic stands have fallen

<br />
During this presentation i had the opportunity to talk with <b>God In A Cone</b> 's creator <b>Nikos Marinos</b> so..here it is...<br />
<br />
<b>Hello Nikos and thank you for this interview.</b><br />
<br />
<br />
Thanks first of all for your intention to invite me at your page<br />
<br />
<b>-I would like to ask you about this one man-band. How did you come up with the idea about this project and how hard is to get it work?</b><br />
<b><br /></b>"God in a cone" came from a simple need to express my ideas and be able to present them genuine to the audience . As far the working process i have to admit it was really enjoyable without difficult barriers.<b><br /></b>
<b><br /></b>
<b>-Recently you released new material. Tell me a few words about it.</b><br />
<b><br /></b>"Parasitoid" is a brand new album which was recorded mixed and mastered by dimitris delis (studio 222)<br />
<br />

<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>-Now let’s talk about live performances. How hard is to present this project on stage?</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
As far live perfomances i am open and i love to present my stuff! So far i've made 7 gigs which were embraced by the audience<b><br /></b>
<b><br /></b>
<b>- Did you have any gigs until now and how did people react to your music?</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
The live process is a little bit complicated but at the same time enjoyable ! Visual concepts are necessary elements for "God in a cone" live performances!<b><br /></b>
<b><br /></b>
<b>-Any future plans about this project? What are your dreams?</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
I love composing and expressing my ideas thus i will continue humble the path of "God in a cone"! <b><br /></b>
<b><br /></b>
<b>-Thank you for this opportunity to talk about this interesting project. I ‘m always happy meeting new musicians and wish you good luck on your plans.</b><br />
<br />
Thanks for the interview brother! Peace , stay strong<br />
