  Speaker 4: See a pretty brutal lineup, mate, with yourselves and Big Destroyers.
• 1:03
  Speaker 4: So you guys played together much before.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we played before together.
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: It was on the Nippalm Death campaign for Musical Destruction tour. Yeah,
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: and then we I guess that was the first time
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: we met the guys. Before that, I was acquainted with
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: Adam Jarvis from Misery Index. So then we started talking. Yeah,
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: and we took the Destroyer on a bus to a bus.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: It was fun, nice guys, Yeah, and quite excited.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: To see them again.
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: Yea for those it may not have seen where before.
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: Made run us through a typical live show, and what
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: do we expect?
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: Uh dud.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: We we just we just played hard and fast. I
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: don't know what the else say. I mean, you just
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: play higher buss.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: We try to do like a curated kind of set
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: where you know, like less talk in between and just
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: small like attack.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: So we'll see you We'll see how it goes.
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: So it must get pretty brutal in the march bit, bro,
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: How does it look on stage looking out into the
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: crowd and seeing everyone go crazy about that?
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: Like it must keep a bit of a rush.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I guess they go crazy because no one knows
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: the lyrics to.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: The songs, so so they rather move rather than sing,
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: So that makes sense.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, I mean we.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Get like, like you know, those standing crowds also, but
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: for us, it's like if you're standing you're listening, you know,
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: So it's it's all good.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: It's all good man.
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: You released live album k and back in My Mate,
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: So how was a reception for that one?
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: They I guess a lot of people really like the
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: production itself. It's more like a live recording kind of
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: vibe compared to like, you know, his voices. Yeah, we've
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: been getting a lot of really good feedback and all
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: the song choices were like we we try to pick
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: songs from every album and like choice cuts basically.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: So, yeah, it's.
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: The setlist I here going to be the time as
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: the one on that album or is it going to
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: be different, No.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: It'd be different. It will probably be like the Australian
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: and US set list.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: Maybe here and there are a few changes, but yeah,
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: the big chunk of it will be like the same
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: as the US and Europe tour.
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: And recently so you guys returned to the original lineup
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: of the band Mate.
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: So how did that kind of band taken the time?
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it didn't take much planning.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: Its just I mean, it took a lot of planning,
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: but at a short amount of time, Arif and Fit
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: had already been talking of like doing a one off
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: without knowing that I'll be separating myself from the the
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: ex drummer. So yeah, when I got back from that tour,
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: we started talking. Uh, they offered to like play one show,
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: and I tried to work out the math to them, like, dude,
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: you shouldn't play just one show because people do want
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: to see us all to get back together. So one
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: show became like a one month tour and then one
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: month to have become like forever forever.
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, how was you come?
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: Because those two had been back together for a while,
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: so how that was coming back in Like it was
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: an easy transition coming back.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: It is so easy, Like like it felt like they
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: never left, especially.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: Fit who who who.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: Was away for like more than ten years I guess
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: or something like that. And yeah, we met again. We
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: practiced again, and nothing fell off.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: You know, we remembered everything that we did.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: I mean, of course they weren't practicing, so they're a
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: little slow in the first few months, but yeah, they
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: they are on their game right now.
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, back a bit my life.
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: Were not startling Singapore back in two thousand and seven,
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: So what was the music saying?
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: Like before all the time, was there a big metal
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: culture then?
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: At that time.
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: Yes, there were a lot of shows, like almost every week.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: We have like metal and and punk shows right now,
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: not so, but we do have like big bands coming
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: in and and and and playing. I I guess we
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: had a band called Elsas if you know, which recently
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: played in one of our venues like three days ago,
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: three days ago. So yeah, big bands are still coming
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: in like like small shows. Metal not really, I guess,
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: but punk and hardcore shows are still going on.
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the band come never Singapore, like I guess thinking
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: Pore isn't really recognized as one of the bigger country
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: four five music or for metals, so you find it
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: harder coming el Singapore.
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: Or to get a foot out in the Bible world
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: of music.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: I guess I think it is.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: I guess like every every has their own journey and
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: and we we.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: Don't have anyone to compare ourself with, so we we
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: we just take it as whatever we are experiencing.
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: Whatever we are experiencing.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: Uh, we're the first one to to to go through
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: all that, and we just take it in stride. Anything
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: bad happens, we just think like, uh, it's okay. Maybe

  Speaker 2: what's right and a wrong.
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: You know.

  Speaker 2: Yeah, It's it's interesting. We we didn't have following.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: Back then in Singapore.
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: Also, like I guess we built up blowing like from
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: Europe in Europe and then in US, and I guess
