THE ARCHAIC will play live @Max Watt's club on Sun. November 8th for Emergenza Festival semifinal! 

FOR THOSE WHO DIDN'T GET TO SEE YOU IN THE FIRST ROUND, CAN YOU INTRODUCE US TO YOUR BAND?

We are a metal band that can't be easily defined (we don't even know how to define ourselves). We incorporate all different styles and influences into a metal chimaera, creating a cohesive but diverse monster.


CAN YOU TELL US MORE ABOUT YOUR EXPERIENCE IN THE FIRST ROUND AND WHAT YOU LEARNED FROM IT?

We had an amazing time playing, and it felt like one of our best gigs. We learned that rather than compete hard, we should just have a good time up
there and rock out, as the fun we are having translates well to the crowd and they will have as much fun as us.


HOW DID YOU CELEBRATE THE MOVE TO THE NEXT ROUND OF EMERGENZA FESTIVAL?

We celebrated by having some well deserved bevvies with the boys, of course. As well as getting super excited to play at the HiFi (Max Watts)!


WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN UP TO BETWEEN GIGS AND WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN DOING TO PREPARE FOR THE NEXT PHASE OF THE COMPETITION?

Recently, we've spent some time recording and planning for the release of our next demo. The songs are sounding nicer and grander than our first demo and we can't wait to unleash it.


DO YOU THINK YOU WILL REACH THE FINAL ROUND OF THE COMPETITION?

We aren't arrogant enough to think that we will. We are confident in ourselves and our music, and we certainly are hopeful. But there may be bands that bring something bigger and better than we could bring. We'll see how we go on gig night!


WHAT ARE YOUR FUTURE PLANS, INDEPENDENTLY FROM EMERGENZA FESTIVAL?

Releasing our next demo and hopefully playing more great shows. We are always looking to play shows and now that we have finished the demo, there is no reason not to!


DESCRIBE YOUR BAND IN 3 WORDS!
Diverse, brutal, fun.
