polygon: Hello guys, greetingsfrom Latvia. How isgood old Germany doingthese days?@noiZe: Hi t<strong>here</strong>! Can't saywhat's going on <strong>here</strong> thesedays as we are currently toobusy working on our nextlongplayer to recognise it. Butthings are going very well <strong>for</strong>us. Thanks <strong>for</strong> asking.polygon: When I was a teenagerI sometimes used towork in some factories in mycity. I really hated it, but itwas good and fast money.However, in these days I feltwhat "human alienation” wasall about. Being part of themachine, the merciless system of moneyaccumulation. According to yourbiography, "Eletronoid” deals with theconsequences of the technical and digitalrevolutions. What exactly are theout<strong>com</strong>es of the last two decades development<strong>for</strong> the evolution of humanbeing?@noiZe: That's a good question, as we justinstalled our 750GB divX player, full ofporn in our studio, 5min be<strong>for</strong>e. L.O.S.:...and two zombie movies@noiZe: No doubt, the Internet is a hugestep in evolution. When we grew up, t<strong>here</strong>were only analogue wired telephones, andnow the I-phone in our pocket connectsus to a world-wide collective 24h a day.We've all be<strong>com</strong>e small cyborgs. We takewhat the wire gives us.L.O.S.: ..and what if this wire will be cutone day?@noiZe: And of cause Laboga guitar ampsare also a great invention in our century.polygon: Your overall concept, e.g. lyrics,outfits and music, has an obviousconnection to the "Brave New World”.The way how you create your music, byusing sound software, programmeddrums and synthesizers, wouldn’t beable without the rapidly developingtechnical skills of mankind. On onehand you have a critical eye on our today’ssituation, on the other hand youdon’t miss to use present advantages tocreate your own visions. How does thatfit? If t<strong>here</strong> is an alienation of humanbeing that should be criticised,wouldn’t it make more sense just to sitin the woods and smash some acousticdrums to the melodies of a flute?L.O.S.: That's easy to answer as the questionis wrong. We don't criticise the technicalrevolution at all. If it all leads to thedestruction of us, that's the way it has tobe, and that's fine with us. @noiZe: Artshouldn't be critical in my eyes. We arejust painting pictures. Yes of course, ourpaintings are not the nice looking ones.Expressionism 2.0 maybe.polygon: As you may have noticed ourwebpage deals with vanguard art exclusively.Since the launch of avantgardemetal.<strong>com</strong>t<strong>here</strong> has been a lively discussionabout what this term reallymeans and how one should define thisstyle (not to speak about its musicalgenesis). My dictionary tells me that"avantgarde” is originally a militaryexpression, which stands <strong>for</strong> the soldiersin a battle who fight in the veryfirst row and who are supposed to diefirst. Do you feel sometimes like a warriorof the first row and how do youdefine "avantgarde metal” <strong>for</strong> yourself?@noiZe: I simply don't want to define it.For the warrior in the first row the wholeterrain is undefined. We are not makingmusic to be industrial, avantgarde orwhatever metal. I hate bands who are hidingbehind a genre. Definition leads toroutine and routine means death to theart.L.O.S.: Those who put us into these gen-
