7:05
Speaker 3: That our schedules met where we could bring him with us.
7:08
Speaker 3: You know, we actually uh did a show with them.
7:12
Speaker 1: El Nino did a Mexico show in Mexico City in
7:15
Speaker 1: October of last year and it was fucking immense.
7:18
Speaker 3: It was one of the.
7:19
Speaker 1: Biggest shows we've ever done for a festival called New
7:21
Speaker 1: Metal Revolution, and uh yeah, it's Sick and Adema were
7:27
Speaker 1: there also and we hung out, we talked. I spoke
7:31
Speaker 1: to to Chris and Dave and and that's when we
7:33
Speaker 1: talked about it. We're like, hey, if you guys have
7:35
Speaker 1: any shows coming up, we'd love to do them with
7:37
Speaker 1: you guys. And I was like, you know what, as a.
7:38
Speaker 3: Matter of fact, and we have.
7:41
Speaker 1: We shared the same agent, so we called our agent
7:43
Speaker 1: and I was like, look, Adam to the show.
7:45
Speaker 3: If we can, you know, make it happen. Let's sucking
7:48
Speaker 3: make it happen.
7:50
Speaker 2: Oh man, Now I want to go back to the beginning,
7:52
Speaker 2: like you started on India back in ninety eight in
7:55
Speaker 2: New Jersey, Bro, So, what was the musical climate like
7:58
Speaker 2: that gave birth to the band and where did you
8:00
Speaker 2: fit in?
8:00
Speaker 1: But then you know, the New York the New York scene,
8:07
Speaker 1: New Jersey scene has always been very hardcore oriented, bands
8:11
Speaker 1: like the Crowmags, and you know, bands like mad Ball
8:15
Speaker 1: and Agnostic Front and all of the hardcore bands, the
8:18
Speaker 1: legendary hardcore bands, bands like the Bad Brands, And you know,
8:23
Speaker 1: I grew up in that scene. And I've seen many, many,
8:26
Speaker 1: many shows in uh in downtown and all over the place.
8:32
Speaker 1: But all the hardcore shows a scene of NOTx up
8:35
Speaker 1: Front Live, which is like the most insane fucking show
8:38
Speaker 1: you'll ever see.
8:38
Speaker 3: I've seen mad Ball live.
8:40
Speaker 1: We're really good friends with those charas with Freddie oh yeah,
8:43
Speaker 1: and back in the day.
8:46
Speaker 3: They were together.
8:46
Speaker 1: And then I think that it's very very true sounds
8:52
Speaker 1: come from these coasts. I don't think it's we don't
8:54
Speaker 1: really fake the funk. We don't fake the sound of
8:58
Speaker 1: the band to fit into a certain cliche, you know,
9:01
Speaker 1: to a niche, and then to fit into a certain pattern.
9:05
Speaker 1: I think that East Coast bands are a little more
9:08
Speaker 1: honest with their sound, I guess, and a little more
9:11
Speaker 1: We don't give up no frills. We don't give a fuck,
9:14
Speaker 1: you know. We do what we do and if you
9:16
Speaker 1: like it fucking awesome, you know, and if you don't
9:19
Speaker 1: fucking awesome anyway, we don't. We don't really try to
9:23
Speaker 1: have a cookie cutter type of sound and fit it
9:26
Speaker 1: into a what's happening in you know, in music at
9:30
Speaker 1: that time.
9:31
Speaker 5: You know, yeah, yeah, so SAMD you go as a
9:35
Speaker 5: god like it basically it fuses metal and Latin music together.
9:38
Speaker 5: But back in the beginning, like when you first came
9:40
Speaker 5: up with the band, Like, was that a hard mixed
9:43
Speaker 5: to get together and sound good?
9:45
Speaker 4: Like did you have to work at it?
9:48
Speaker 3: Okay?
9:48
Speaker 1: Well, I mean it comes it comes from my background,
9:50
Speaker 1: right I I I was raised when I was a kid,
9:54
Speaker 1: and my mom would always play you know, salsa and
9:58
Speaker 1: medangae and all kinds of you know, cumbia and all
10:02
Speaker 1: kinds of Latin music, and I mean that's all I knew.
10:06
Speaker 1: I was I was living in Peru, I was living
10:08
Speaker 1: in America. So that's all the music you knew. And
10:12
Speaker 1: you know, we as I became accustomed to these sounds.
10:18
Speaker 1: I started in the under and I started in heavy
10:21
Speaker 1: metal back in the eighties. You know, I've been doing
10:23
Speaker 1: this thirty nine years, forty years now. And I was
10:26
Speaker 1: in a bank called Gothic Slam in the eighties, mid eighties,
10:29
Speaker 1: and it was metal. It was kind of like Anthrax
10:32
Speaker 1: meets Metallica, speed metal. And after that, you know, I've
10:36
Speaker 1: joined a bunch of bands. I've been in MD I've
10:39
Speaker 1: been in Propane, I've been in Soulfly, I've been in Marauder.
10:43
Speaker 1: I've been in all these different bands. When we started
10:47
Speaker 1: Ill Nino. When I founded Il Nino in ninety eight,
10:50
Speaker 1: I was putting together the metal sounds of the band
10:54
Speaker 1: and I wanted to add some percussion. The way it
10:56
Speaker 1: started was I edited at Timballe to my drunk kid
11:00
Speaker 1: and I started playing percussion in certain sections by myself
11:03
Speaker 1: without a percussionist. Now you fast forward to two thousand
11:08
Speaker 1: and we are in the studio, I was actually my
11:12
Speaker 1: bass player and let.
11:13
Speaker 3: My right hand guy in the band. He's been in
11:15
Speaker 3: the bands Revolution.
11:17
Speaker 1: He's a OG along with Danny Quoto, who's also an
11:20
Speaker 1: OG in the band.
11:21
Speaker 3: And we.
11:24
Speaker 1: You know, we started writing the new music with the
11:29
Speaker 1: with the original band members of the band.
11:31
Speaker 3: Uh and uh.
11:33
Speaker 1: I just felt like I couldn't play all the percussion
11:38
Speaker 1: ship that I wanted to play along with the songs
11:41
Speaker 1: because again, I grew up with a lot of bands
11:44
Speaker 1: that are very percussive with like Santana, even bands like
11:47
Speaker 1: Miami Sound Machine, which I'm sure a lot of people
11:49
Speaker 1: don't know who they are, but they're like a pop
11:51
Speaker 1: band on the fucking eighties that fused by lingual music,
11:56
Speaker 1: you know, English in Spanish, mostly Spanish. And I wanted
12:01
Speaker 1: to put that together. I wanted to mix it and.
12:05
Speaker 3: I was able to record it, and uh, then we
12:10
Speaker 3: got Roger in the band, you know, original percussionists, and
12:14
Speaker 3: everything just kind of fell into place. It was very natural.
12:16
Speaker 3: It wasn't forced.
12:18
Speaker 1: Again, you know, being from the East Coast and having
12:21
Speaker 1: that background in Latin music, I think that it helped
12:24
Speaker 1: me confuse it without really forcing it.
12:28
Speaker 3: It's very natural, you know.
12:30
Speaker 5: Yep.
12:31
Speaker 4: Now, I don't want to focus on the negatives of
12:33
Speaker 4: this night.
12:33
Speaker 2: But like I've in the years, you've had some members
12:35
Speaker 2: coming go, You've had dramas with the band, But do
12:38
Speaker 2: you keep Gallon Bryer like, what is it that keeps
12:40
Speaker 2: driving you Withino and it makes you keep persevering even
12:43
Speaker 2: when the chips are against you.
12:46
Speaker 1: You know, Elin has always been my baby. You know,
12:48
Speaker 1: it's been my creation since ninety eight.
12:51
Speaker 3: And you know.
12:54
Speaker 1: It's some very dear to me, as like a child,
12:56
Speaker 1: almost like having your own kid. And and I'm not
12:59
Speaker 1: gonna allow somebody to downplay the band, or hurt the band,
13:04
Speaker 1: or put us in danger of not being around anymore.
13:07
Speaker 1: And you know, you become protect protective, you know. On
13:10
Speaker 1: a positive note.
13:11
Speaker 3: You know, you know.
13:15
Speaker 1: We had our issues when we had our issues with
13:18
Speaker 1: the original three, with the three other members of the band,
13:21
Speaker 1: with Christian Machado and.
13:24
Speaker 3: A Rue Luster and the other guitar player, and you know,
13:29
Speaker 3: should happen.
13:30
Speaker 1: But I'm glad to say that, you know, Christian and
13:34
Speaker 1: I are now on speaking terms and we were kind
13:37
Speaker 1: of we're friends again, and we are you know, we
13:42
Speaker 1: we hashed everything out last year around December. We started
13:46
Speaker 1: talking we started texting each other, then we met up.
13:49
Speaker 1: His band was playing a show in Fort Worth, Texas,
13:54
Speaker 1: which is about twenty five minutes for me, and I
13:56
Speaker 1: texted him and I was like, Hey, I'm going to
13:58
Speaker 1: come see upon a burning By, which was the Headliners,
14:01
Speaker 1: and you guys are playing, and he's like, yes, what
14:04
Speaker 1: do you want?
14:04
Speaker 3: Why don't we hook up?
14:05
Speaker 1: And we talked from it and he's like, now, that
14:07
Speaker 1: was the first time we spoke in five years since
14:09
Speaker 1: the brutal you know, since the lawsuit. And we sat down,
14:13
Speaker 1: we talked, and you know, we both were very positive.
14:16
Speaker 1: We're both very sorry that what happened had happened. And
14:20
Speaker 1: we both looked behind twenty you know, twenty twenty, and we.
14:23
Speaker 3: Looked back at it. We're like, it was fucking.
14:25
Speaker 1: Stupid that it happened, and we wished that we would
14:27
Speaker 1: have handled it different, but we you know, it's it's
14:30
Speaker 1: in the past now. And we wished each other the best,
14:32
Speaker 1: and he was like, you know, hey, you're doing a
14:35
Speaker 1: great job with only you know, he goes, I see,
14:37
Speaker 1: I like what I'm seeing, and you know, at the
14:40
Speaker 1: same time, I wished him the best for his band.
14:42
Speaker 1: I told him his band's doing great, and uh, you know,
14:45
Speaker 1: we're both in a place of of there's no anger,
14:50
Speaker 1: there's no uh, you know, justlike we wish each other
14:55
Speaker 1: the best, and I legitimately say that, you know, from
14:58
Speaker 1: all the goodness of my heart, like I wish him
14:59
Speaker 1: the best, and I think that.
15:02
Speaker 3: Everything happens for a reason, you know.
15:04
Speaker 1: And in my life personally, I just don't I don't
15:06
Speaker 1: need any negativity in my life. I don't need any
15:10
Speaker 1: black clouds. The older you get, the more you start realizing, like, hey,
15:14
Speaker 1: it's it's about personal relationships, it's about humanity, about kindness,
15:18
Speaker 1: and it's about you know, being a bigger person and
15:23
Speaker 1: making the first move at squashing bullshit, you know.
15:28
Speaker 3: And I was I was the one who approached them
15:32
Speaker 3: because I don't want any negativity in my life. I
15:35
Speaker 3: don't need it, you know.
15:36
Speaker 1: I just think that life's too short to look back
15:39
Speaker 1: at it and be like a negative piece of ship.
15:42
Speaker 3: And the same thing happened with with Marcos Leaf.
15:45
Speaker 1: You know, we're in a band. I mean he towards
15:49
Speaker 1: towards the end he wanted a little more control of
15:51
Speaker 1: the band. And there was never about anybody else other
15:55
Speaker 1: than myself. Lazarropina and any Quoto call the shots. We
16:01
Speaker 1: have meetings, we talk about business and we we handled

Speaker 1: They're amazing, amazing musicians. I mean, you'll see they are

Speaker 1: I spoke to Christian six months ago. He called me
16:56
Speaker 1: and he was you know, he apologized for his actions. Uh,
16:59
Speaker 1: he wish that he never would have done what he
17:03
Speaker 1: did and the way things you know, came out. I

Speaker 1: band and the bands that he's playing in and uh.

Speaker 4: remember all that? Probably that's a lot.
19:40
Speaker 1: I remember it because I'm the guy in charge.
19:44
Speaker 3: So I'm the guy that you know that has has
19:46
Speaker 3: to deal with it.
19:48
Speaker 4: Yeah, written the new music, is it what people would
19:52
Speaker 4: expect from it on then? Or have you?
19:54
Speaker 1: So?
19:54
Speaker 2: I added a few new elements the last album.
19:58
Speaker 3: The new music is.
20:01
Speaker 1: I said, I'm the proudest of everything that anything I've
20:03
Speaker 1: ever done. It's it's it's fucking like revolution and Confession
20:08
Speaker 1: on crack. It's heaviest fuck but it's very melodic and
20:12
Speaker 1: it's very you know this this The singing songs are
20:16
Speaker 1: very singing, and the heavy songs are very heavy, and
20:19
Speaker 1: which what kind of made El Nino El Nino? You know,
20:22
Speaker 1: we come in from this crazy, you know, heavy, heavy
20:26
Speaker 1: fucking song into like, you know, a beautiful chorus with
20:29
Speaker 1: flamenco guitars, right, and uh, expect the same the same formula,
20:35
Speaker 1: but at the same time is going to be you know,
20:39
Speaker 1: very modern music exchanged since two thousand and one, and uh,
20:43
Speaker 1: I think for the better. You know, I really love
20:45
Speaker 1: a lot of the new music on the new bands
20:48
Speaker 1: out there. You know, I'm sure that you guys are
20:52
Speaker 1: totally psyched with the new bad Omens record, you know,
20:56
Speaker 1: And I just saw I just saw that.
20:58
Speaker 3: I just saw the death tones, which to me, I mean, fuck,
21:01
Speaker 3: bad Omens are modern death tones.
21:06
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what I mean is it's the truth.
21:10
Speaker 1: I mean, and I'm sure that they love the fucking
21:13
Speaker 1: death tones. I mean, who doesn't love the death tones?
21:15
Speaker 3: And and uh there.
21:17
Speaker 1: You know, I think that the new album is definitely
21:20
Speaker 1: has a lot of modern twists to it. I noticed
21:23
Speaker 1: that new music has a lot more samples, a lot
21:27
Speaker 1: more ambient sounds, and it's a lot more rhythmic when
21:31
Speaker 1: it comes to two samples and keys and synths and whatnot.
21:38
Speaker 1: So there's definitely a lot of more of that incorporated
21:41
Speaker 1: into the new new album as well as like the
21:45
Speaker 1: songs that we had in the past, as you know,
21:47
Speaker 1: like I Am Loco and uh and how Can I
21:51
Speaker 1: Live and.
21:51
Speaker 3: Stuff like that. I mean, we're definitely gonna have the bangers,
21:54
Speaker 3: but we're definitely gonna have a couple of brutal tracks
21:56
Speaker 3: in them.
