Sudden Death

Ashley: Note for the band: I thought the album was kickass! I've been listening to it a lot. Well done!
Andrea:
Ehehehe thank you... that was our intention ?

Ashley: SUDDEN DEATH hails from Italy, what is the metal scene like over there?
Andrea:
There’s a lot of good underground metal bands, but it’s not so easy to “spread the word” because of many issues due to the lack of good communication between the band themselves and between the north and south of the Country...it’s very difficult to achieve concerts or export the Italian music in foreign lands...

Ashley: How did SUDDEN DEATH come together?
Andrea:
We play since 1997 and now we’re together after many line–up changes...

Ashley. What are some of your influences?
Andrea:
We’re influenced most by the greatest American death metal bands ever, like Suffocation, Cannibal Corpse, Morbid Angel, Cryptopsy...

Ashley: Injection Of Hate is your second full-length album, how did it come together? What was the recording like? And were there any differences between band members on what was to go onto the album?
Andrea:
It was wonderful! We worked all together to the songs and also in studio we were united and directed to the same purpose...recording the most brutal death full length we can do!

Ashley: Are there any plans on a future release from SUDDEN DEATH?
Andrea:
Of course we’re thinking about the next release, but anything is decided yet...we would like to have some special guest but it’s just an idea....

Ashley Are there any plans on touring? If so, where to and whom with?
Andrea:
Yes, we’re some gigs planned for next weeks...may the 8th we will play in our city, Rome, with other underground metal bands, and in June the 3rd we’re going to play with one of the biggest Italian grind core band, Undertakers, near Naples...

Ashley: If you could choose any bands to tour with, who would they be?
Andrea:
Well, of course Morbid Angel and Cannibal Corpse... luckily we have already shared the stage with one of our best bands ever, Suffocation, with we have played in October 2004 as support band here in Rome! It was such an honor to play with them!

Ashley: Are there any side projects any of the SUDDEN DEATH members are working on?
Andrea:
Yes, our guitarist has got his own band called Disease where he sings and plays the guitar, while our drummer also plays in another metal band called C.L.G

Ashley: How would you describe the sound of SUDDEN DEATH?
Andrea:
Brutal, Fast and without compromises!

Ashley: Are there any last words for all the SUDDEN DEATH fans out there?
Andrea:
Yes, always support the underground and keep the touch with us checking our website.
