| The following is an interview with LIAR from the U.S. black metal band, TYPHUS! Reaver) What was the reason for TYPHUS to come into existence? Liar) Information is Not Knowledge. Knowledge is Not Wisdom. Wisdom is Not Truth. Truth is Not Beauty. Beauty is Not Love. Love is Not Music! We gather as TYPHUS to spread Terror & Propaganda in the name of Money & all that is evil & wrong with this society. Our Master & lord Satan calls us to do his bidding & we do this by performing only very blasphemous, cold, grim, necro, minimalist, narrow minded, raw, extremely harsh, fire breathing, blood smeared, spike wearing, christ crushing orthodox black metal. Reaver) What other projects are the members of Typhus involved with? Liar) FOG, FORMALDEHYDE SLEEP, DYSPERIUM, STORMCROW, MORPHEUS DESCENDS. Reaver) Has there been any shows for TYPHUS? Liar) We have had one Live Ritual during SAMHAIN, October 30th (you can find photos on our website!!) Reaver) How difficult is it to juggle multiple bands & runningDark Horizon Records for you guys? Liar) I think it's safe to say that myself as well as Typhus LIVE, SLEEP, EAT, BREATHE & SHIT METAL so this is not an issue. Reaver) Where do you see America's role in the Black Metal scene? Liar) I think that the US has been a strong force in the scene even since the beginning of black metal! Reaver) What's the scene like in Indiana? Liar) There is no such thing for metal here. Reaver) How do you feel about certain naysayers claiming that, to call oneself elite, you are associating with nazi philosophy or do you think they are just whiney pussies, as I do? Liar) TYPHUS considers themselves above any typical political agenda. Our propaganda concerns itself more with a greater evil, something closer to our blackened hearts, like the greed of money, lust, pain & pure hateful art. Reaver) Do you think the American Black Metal Movement should take a more offensive approach, as the '90s Scandinavian scene did? Liar) Yes, I feel that any action that strong regardless of the intelligence of the action, it cannot be denied. Reaver) What are the future plans for TYPHUS? Liar) Our foundation has been built upon depravity & rebellion & we shall march forth until we control our rightful place in the scene & our Kingdom shall remain in effect until the Old World Order is destroyed & replaced with the New World Order Novus Ordor Seclorum. Reaver) Any final comments? Liar) Insanity in individuals is something rare- but in groups, parties, nations & epochs, it is the rule!
