We had a chat with StoneDaze. Here is the interview that will let you know them better.
Welcome to Downtuned. Tell us a few words about the group, when and where did you get started? How did you meet?
Welcome to Downtuned. Tell us a few words about the group, when and where did you get started? How did you meet?
We started
jammin’ in 2009 first me (Greg/guitar) and Dimitris (Drums) , we knew each
other from previous projects then Alex (Vocals) came to the band
and gradually we started to look like a band. Then our ex bassist Ozmo
came to the band and we released a promo cd in 2012. Later, Ozmo left the band
and our new bassist is Andrew we’re very glad to have him in the group. Now
we’re in the studio finishing our debut album.
Which are your musical influences?
Kyuss ,
Wolfmother , QOTSA , Down , Led Zeppelin , Lynyrd Skynyrd and generally 70’s
bands.
What’s your lyrics about? What catches your interest?
The lyrics are
mainly about our experiences , about the society and the problems that we face
every day.
Is the communication with the crowd something that you
care about, in all levels, or do you do music for yourselves?
We care a lot
about the crowd and it’s something amazing to interact with the crowd but we do
music mainly for ourselves. If we do music that we don’t like it 100% we’ll
never put it out.
Do you feel like you’re a part of a particular “scene”
in which you would like to join and contribute or you are indifferent about it?
We think that
we’re a part of the greek heavy / stoner scene, we think that the scene is
getting bigger and bigger every day. We have great bands like Planet of Zeus ,
Potergeist , 1000Mods , Nightstalker that made huge steps and made the scene
known worldwide and we have magnificent new bands that can produce really good
music.
How do you imagine that the band will be in ten years
from now?
With a couple
of records and some touring experience.
Which famous artist you would like to do a guest to a
record of yours and why?
We think that
Josh Homme would be this artist. We think he’s an influential figure for the
scene and for us as a band. Also, his musicianship and his incredible music taste
would every song to a masterpiece.
What plans do you have for the near future?
This period
we’re finishing the recordings for our debut album that will be released this
year and also we’ll schedule some live acts beginning this Sunday 1/2 @ After dark
music bar with our brothers Jaw breaker really great band.
We wish you good luck to whatever you’re doing, the
epilogue is yours.
Keep on
listening to and supporting the greek bands and we’re looking forward to see
you in our gigs!
