INTERVIEW BEAT
What’s the story of Rev Kriss Hades – what’s been happening ?
“I’ve been to hospital and become an alcoholic. I’ve been to Moscow and I’m a surrealist now. Always been a surrealist, actually.”
So first, up what’s the deal with the name? Are you a real Reverend? How’s that even work? What sort of church would that be for anyways?
“That’s a good question. It’s a real church. And I ain’t a real Reverend. I cannot reveal the identity of this church other than that the purpose of the church is for beautiful women and girls to wear black while going to funerals. Not necessarily gothic clothing, but they must congregate themselves before the high priest, which is myself.”
What’s the story of Rev Kriss Hades – what’s been happening since Sadistik Exekution?
“I’ve been to hospital and become an alcoholic. I’ve been to Moscow and I’m a surrealist now. Always been a surrealist, actually.”
Your music encompasses a wide range of genres and influences within black metal. What is the most important element included in your music?
“ The word genre is shit. The other word I hate is… well, actually, I blocked that word out, I hate it that much. Oh, I remember now. AESTHETIC. I HATE THAT WORD!”
Your live shows are said to be nothing short of dynamically crazed. What do they
typically involve?
“Has anyone seen Get Smart when they drop acid, when they’re full on tripping because they put a gigantic acid trip in the water supply? That’s what I’m trying to recreate; Get Smart with added chaos. ”
What’s the vibe you’re trying to impart at the live show? What’s all this about an imperious, vampiric presence we hear about?
“Dr Fibes.”
In term of your music , what’s the most important aspect that you want people to walk away with?
“Professionalism, and a hard on. Or\no, not that. Give us some cash and we’ll do our best to play well. Otherwise, we’ll put a curse on you. We’re like a gypsies in that sense.”
What, do you believe, is the allure of black metal?
“The T-shirts.”
