an interview with Ulcerate

For over a decade, New Zealand's Ulcerate has pushed death metal past its self-imposed boundaries; in so doing, their atmospheric and dissonant style inspired a horde of imitators. With their album Stare Into Death and Be Still newly released through Debemur Morti Productions, I reached out to the band to find out more about their approach to songwriting and the creation of their latest release. Drummer Jamie Saint Merat was kind enough to answer my questions.

catching up with Grey Skies Over Rapture

It was almost exactly a year ago that I met Grey Skies Over Rapture at the Symbiotic Metalfest in Wellington, New Zealand; since we last spoke, the band issued their long-in progress first album. Guitarist Andrew Collett, drummer Jake Forster, and vocalist Richard Matthews took turns answering my questions about their self-titled debut.
