Biography.
In mid-2010 the Daath born in Brazil with the purpose of passing any negative feeling, morbid and insane as possible. In the same year gave a demo tape titled "Abismo ..." (Abyss. ..), containing three songs, two instrumentals. This demo was just released, and even then the Daath was a one-man project. Also in 2010 came Count Abyss assuming the drums, but this lasted only a few months training, their participation was only two songs for a possible album. After the departure of Count Abyss, Daath returned to being a one man band project and was dead for two years. It was a period of turmoil and nightmares, and in 2012 returned with all the insanity and re-recorded the songs of 2010 which led to the album "Psychiatric Ward" containing 5 tracks,and 6 intros between music tracks. This album aims to complete insanity of mind, as a "stay" in a sanatorium. Daath in 2013 promises to drop two unpublished material.

2.How many achievement have you gotten so far?
E. Angot -
The project was stopped for two years, this has
made things took longer still. It was a great time lost, but Essential
to a certain softening of
ideals. In 2012 I got a label in a short time, it has already been a great help
to launch the new material
that was partially done
since 2010.
3.Was it difficult during those days while no
body known your existence yet?
E. Angot
- It is very difficult
to start a band today, as there are many bands to excel on these other bands
have to do something really good.
Whenever
we face any difficulties with new materials, here in Brazil for example, there
is no a scene of Depressive Black Metal and the like, then to launch a
or
similar material of this genus, is very difficult.
4.Do you have any goals for the band (music
perhaps)
E. Angot
- My goal with this
project is to pass all that I feel,in the lyrics and music.this was the main
purpose of the ride I Daath. When finished the new album
I
listened it whole, and I saw that the atmosphere of it was the way I wanted to,
insanity and feelings that I went through with unclean vocals alternate
environments and heavy keyboards.
5.Everyone is portrayed as a certain character.
What role did you think you played in the band?
E. Angot
- I see myself as an
entity of suicide, I would be really happy if someone commit suicide listening Daath, or go insane.
this
is the message that I have to pass, that life has a huge hole, we smothers him
with alcohol, drugs ...
plus
it will still be there.
6.Did you feel changing about other things
maybe about transference of emotions?
E. Angot
- If you compare with
the Demo album, much has changed really, because in 2010 I had an idea a little
different, plus the hole in me only increased with time,
and
years still made me feel totally different things that I ended up going to
this material. Perhaps it is not a change, but a different intensity of
feelings.
7.What the best describe and the character of
the band? (I mean how would you describe the music or the thing you’ve played)
E. Angot
- So far I would say it
is a trip without return to a sanatorium, this new material marked me as it has
some different arrangements, clean vocals, sad, torn, suffering, insane ...
The
way that crosses this project is an alternative path in relation to other
bands, I want to work intensively with various themes, I incorporate several
different elements.
8.What did you think made you stand into being
a metal band?
E. Angot
- The metal brings a
very intense atmosphere, but I do not limit myself only in metal, I hear many
different things all day, I opted for the more metal per taste the same.
More
I intend to mount some project other non-metal styles further ahead.
9.Has there been some line-up changing during
the years.. then do you think it will be a constant line-up?
E. Angot
- In 2010 came Count
Abyss assuming the battery, but this lineup did not last long, because by
personal conflicts Count Abyss came out of metal, finished with the projects he
was a part.
I
intend to keep One man band, because dealing with people is really hard. If I
ever do is some show with Daath, contract musicians, most put someone inside
Daath, but maybe never.
F.Abyss/E.Angot - 2010
10.How did you (I mean the band itself) manage to run the band?
E. Angot - How is a solo project, I do everything, letters, compositions, arrangements ... On the one hand it is good because the music reaches its perfection, the other is limited, such as making some presentation ..
11.How does the band decide which direction to
take the music?
E. Angot
- Are personal
feelings, the project ended up taking direction from the side more depressed
and suicidal, largely by my feelings for the other part I really like.
12.How did this concept become a definite line
for the band?
E. Angot
- is not defined, is
something I'm going through now, in a few years I want to spend another
message. Maybe that's one of the problems of current bands, limited only in
some topic. I give freedom in that part of creation, I will talk about
everything that I find it necessary.
13.How do you think that this metal
classification would suit the band?
E. Angot
- I do not like to
classify Daath, when you're stuck on labels creates a creative limitation. Like
I said, I intend to incorporate several different elements such as jazz, blues,
funk, groove among others.
15.What the different things in the band
composition, how do you manage to create this kind of atmosphere?
E. Angot
- The main essence of
my music is a feeling, because it starts right at the lyrics and then triggers
the music. I believe the negative sentiment and melancholic that makes build
the letters.
already
is the beginning of the whole composition, from the beginning already know what
I want to pass that song, add some "elements" to increase this
feeling. Blutum Angot (Begotten In Pain) and me we used to store dead animals to
get the gist of death on several occasions. I did a few times before recording
some vocals,
smelling
remains of animals to have contact with the true essence of death, she has a
sweet smell that I like, and the recordings turn this gloomy aspect.
16.Do you think that the new band is rather
stagnant? How did you manage to raise your band out of this?
E. Angot
- Young bands take time
to get up, have to have a very good material and different walking rolling
around. Perhaps Daath sounds different than these current bands, full of rules
... I'm here to break these very concepts humans who always want to limit the
music with some label, anyway if someone wants his band grow the principal is
doing something different from the ordinary ....
17.Did you think that the music and the song that you wrote was your real expression? (E. Angot - 2012)
E. Angot
- Are personal feelings
that are present in any music of my own . anything I do will always have
something I want to spend, and probably will very clear all these expressions
in music.
18.In what way did your life change by playing
in an underground band?
E. Angot
- The main thing is you
feel what makes, changes occur in any mediocre direction we take, but do some
art form with all your feelings and dedication is immeasurable pleasure.
20.Experimenting is a kind of great thing when
we are talking about music. Do you intentionally try to explore new field with
your music? Is this experimenting present in your daily life as well?
E. Angot
-
I hear different songs all the time, and my intent with this project is
to evolve and experiment without limits. I will make a psychedelic album soon,
full of influences from the late '60s and early '70s. Make the listener feel
the whole atmosphere of the album along with the lyrics and the music, which
was already used in terms, this new album because the main idea of this album
is to make the listener feel inside of insanity and the sanatorium represented
in this material .
21.Being a black metal band often limit their
lyrical concept. In the band did you try to get a broader sense?( it doesn’t
cares either you playing black metal or not coz the main topic here just a
broader sense at all)
E. Angot
- black metal to me is
total freedom, I will not to limit myself because some idiots did this movement
a "book of rules" to follow, actually Christianized. is easy to see
Christian morality by taking account of people's minds, live comforting their
minds with lies and lies. My lyrics are personal feelings, never limit myself,
in both lyrics and musicality.
22.What kind of ideas you had in mind when you
set out for new material?
E. Angot
- I really wanted to
make a stay in a sanatorium and something totally insane and different, full of
experimental elements. Starting with the clean vocals varying the most insane
possible. a musicality and engaging morbid, with pianos, keyboards oppressive,
and clean guitars. Joining all this managed to make this new material, named
"Psychiatric Ward". I was very satisfied with the title and the album
itself.
23.How would you describe your material? (old
or the new material if possible)
E. Angot
- I'll talk about a new
material this out later this year, will be a split with the Begotten in Pain,
the material will contain two tracks sound totally different and experimental,
the songs are almost ready, lack only some arrangements. something that varies
from extreme to beautiful.
25.What’s the best compliment a scene people
can pay you?
E. Angot
- If anyone could
understand what I step in music was already a good size. but I would be very
pleased if someone commit suicide or go insane listening to the daath. fully
self-destructive ...
26.Is there something that you are longing for?
E. Angot -
Perhaps my own destruction ...
27.How do you think you have helped to shape
your current metal music’s scene?
E. Angot
- Are several elements
that are passed several bands of varying styles and influences as whole is
harmfulan hour ends up by taking it all some form, good or bad.
Maybe
I'm on the right track, trying to be more experimental, ie, putting old and new
elements in my music. we will see where it goes over the years.
28.Is there a band that you would like to be
compared with?
E. Angot
- There are many bands
out there that I would like to be compared, but I see that my music will always
sound the way I see it, as I said before all is harmful influences, listening
to different bands always got something new, and this contact is what matters .
29.What did you think made you stand out from
the rest of the metal acts?
E. Angot
-
We never know for sure, each seeking something in the music, so many
different sensations are felt by many different people.
30.What was the most challenging part about
being in the underground metal scene?
E. Angot
- The lack of support
that exists on this false "scene" of metal, and the neglect of which
is the major record labels, has several bands releasing material for seals out
of the country for lack of support here. maybe that's the main reasons many
bands stop.
31.What about commercialism? As you know here
in underground doesn’t really translate into cash. So what do you do to make
ends meet?
E. Angot
-
Speaking of sales is difficult because many criticize the sale of
materials, on the other hand most bands do it and need to sell as art materials
to get the necessary feedback to continue. Each band has its proper value, and
commercial pop songs end up disappearing in a pile of garbage, what is good is
saved ... I own a bookstore and lp's used, it's great to have a library and a
disco at your disposal ...the chances of progress are enormous.
E.Angot - 2012
32.Would you consider yourself competitive?
E. Angot
- no, I am a very calm
person and not care what others think.
33.Who did you think was your biggest rival?
E. Angot
- The moral, yes it is
disgusting and dominates the weak minded ...
34.Scene has gone through so many cycles. Do
you think people will ever get tired of it?
E. Angot
- people living and
walking in circles do not realize, comfort your minds with lies all the time,
they will never get tired of it ... will keep moving in circles of ignorance
...
35.Don’t you think in the long term finally you
get tired and boring too. Do you feel if there is gonna be a radical change?
E. Angot
- you never know what
can happen in the long term, probably something I would acontecese with Daath
in the most radical choices, otherwise continue with my work without connecting
to others' opinions.

37.Underground pride themselves on being
independent. Do you think the ideas of needing to be underground still appeals
to today’s generations?
E. Angot
-
the underground died long ago, nobody thinks today in an "underground
scene". collectivity that died in the 80s.
41.As a member who inside the band, it is
strong enough to decide what should be played and what you don’t and when to
start or stop the band?
E. Angot
-
I have no problems with members, job as a one man band, and am well
pleased with this, as the project comes to my feelings, and feelings do not
sharing completely.
42.What do you want to do after finishing the
band?
E. Angot
- I'll probably be
dead, or missing forever ...
