Slappie 9 #1 December 6, 2006 This is one of the most hilarious things I've read. I hope Zennie is still lurking because, I know he'd get a good belly laugh from this interview. Premise is a Death Metal band that has a Parrot for lead vocals. I give you HATEBEAK!! Doh forgot to put the LINK here. Quote I cannot play guitar. I cannot play bass. I cannot play drums. I will have to learn how to do one or all of these things in a hurry, though; the band that I hope to join already has their vocalist firmly established with nary a dream of dismissal. Ever. The band I speak of is a punishing death metal cabal boasting a human drummer, a human guitarist, a human bassist … and a fucking Congo African Grey parrot named Waldo as their mouthpiece. Separately, they are humble minions of the Ever-Reigning Supreme Lord of Darkness. Aligned together, they are Hatebeak. ....... Quote BT: As a review posted on your label's site informs us, Waldo actually has a notable distaste for loud and abrasive noises (death metal included), making Hatebeak a strictly studio-based project. Is it a strain on the band to have a lead singer who's so particular about his recording/performing conditions? Do you sometimes feel that his rigid demands keep you from touring, socializing and other peripheral activities required to keeping a band afloat? BLK: No, I actually find it quite a relief, it'll be hard to tour the country and the world toting around a parrot. They are fairly similar to children. "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
