#30-Inside the darkness

Frost - Black Metal from Hungary
But many more quality
bands from the Hungarian
scene could be mentioned.
- Do you think
the attitude of Black
Metal bands have
changed in recent
years? What does
Consecratus ad Mortem
mean?
I don't usually
deal with other
bands' stuff.
Everyone does
what they want
from me. I'm
just focusing on
Frost, that's all
that's important
to me.
Music and style
are changing, but
fortunately, not
only the bands
that represent
innovation can
prevail, but also,
those that carry
on the old flame. Time
will decide which bands
can stay afloat in the long
run.
"Consecratus Ad Mortem"
literally means "Consecrated
to death".
The sacrament of birth
gives life, but from that
moment also you start
on the road to death. No
one can avoid this.
This is a duality that we
approached from a theistic
point of view, especially
on the album cover and
in some of the lyrics.
- What can fans expect
from your new album?
"Consecratus Ad Mortem"
continues the musical and
atmospheric world of our
previous album "Winterblood".
For those who liked
"Winterblood", I think
the new album will not
disappoint.
Aggressive themes
mix with epic melodies,
I think this album is also
very diverse. This is an interesting,
atmospheric and
generally melodic black
metal album, which also
has the necessary aggressiveness.
In addition to the music, we
also paid attention to the vocal
themes, Bence supports the
main vocals with his extreme
vocals in many places.
The feedback on the new album
has been very good so far,
but we don't feel we can sit
back.
- What is ‘The Thirteenth
of Them’ about?
I don't usually explain the
lyrics, because by doing so I
create a boundary that limits
the listener's
own imagination in relation
to the given song or lyrics.
When I am asked to analyze a
song, I always only talk about
the technical or structural
structure of the song, so that
the mystical content of the
music is preserved for the listener,
which he can take in as
he likes.
- Do you meet older fans
who were fans from the
old prophecy days? Are
you playing any summer
festivals?
Yes of course. Fortunately,
I am in touch with
many people from the
old days. Many old faces
also come to concerts,
most of them follow the
band. But I'm also very
good with the ex-Frost
members, as well as with
the members of our old
band Prophecy (1994-
1996).
As for the summer festivals,
there are no scheduled
dates yet.
But anyway, it is not
typical for us to appear at
summer festivals.
- Do you have a message
for our readers?
Find and listen to the
Frost albums!
Support your favorite
bands so they can carry on
the torch!
In addition, I wish everyone
strength and endurance
in this fucking world!
Thank you for your
time.
