Hacker: Unholy Greetings my friend,how are you doing. I'm doing fine. Thanks! Here are my answers, sorry for the delay. Hope you will like them. Okay, thanks again for support, hope to hear from you soon. Take care HACKER, your German brother

First of all tell us about the answer to the first issue of unholy terror?
Hell-Yeah, first of all I have to thank you for the opportunity to be in your 'zine. Thanks brother ! ! It's overwhelming, the reactions are so fucking great. I can't believe it. I've never expected that. Things are working really good for us.

About the distribution..,  tell me if you have some troubles with some trendy distributors,  i think that unholy T. is a total anty trendy mag?
That's for sure!!! Unholy Terror is a total anti trendy mag. But I wouldn't say that we have some trouble with trendy distributors. It's more that they ignore us and of course we ignore them, too. Especially the big mailorder and distribution companies ignored us. We don't care, there are a lot of true and dedicated distributors so that we don't need these wimps! ! ! Sometimes it's really funny, there was a distributor in Germany who bought ten mags but he said that it would be difficult to sell them because Unholy Terror features only pure Death Metal bands and there is no CD for free. Four weeks later he bought ten more mags. Hahaha !! I think we have more trouble with stupid record companies and dull black metal bands. I mean Unholy Terror is a pure fuckin' Death Metal 'zine but they sent us tons of black metal crap.

About Germany what can you say about the death metal scene in your country?
The German Death Metal scene is growing. Some years ago there were only a fistful of good Death Metal bands in Germany. Nowadays more and more bands are releasing cool demos or albums. Some great bands from Germany are KADATH, MENTAL ABERRATION, HARMONY DIES, BARON, FLESHCRAWL, NECROPHAGIST, PAVOR. There are also some cool 'zines coming from my country like TALES OF THE MACABRE, MYSTICAL MUSIC, DESECRATION OF VIRGIN, CHAOS. . . I would say that Germany is a good place to live (cause there is the best beer of the whole world ! ! ! ) and it's a good place for metal. Here are a lot of metal shows and you can see nearly every band touring through Germany.

But on the other hand that's a little bit of a problem, because there are a lot of shows with bigger and very famous bands so that the fans are something like fed up. They don't come to underground concerts, because they saw Slayer yesterday and tomorrow they go to Cradle Of Filth.
Hacker tell us some about the artist behind the cover of your zine?

The name of the Artist is  Guido Meyer de Voltaire. He is a fuckin' talented artist, a dedicated metal-head and a good friend of mine. He did also the layout for the first issue of Unholy Terror. He is a freelancing graphic designer and he is the guitarist and vocalist of a cool Thrash Metal band called AARDVARKS. Feel free to get in touch with him at: GMdV@aardvarks.org  or check out his homepages: www.aardvarks.org     or     www.voltairegraphics.de

Tell us about the importance of the internet for your zine?.. and say some about your home page...
The internet is fuckin important. It's cheap and fast so we can spread our unholy thoughts very quickly. German post rates sucks, it's so expensive to send a letter to foreign countries like Columbia or the States. So the internet is a big help to keep in touch with my Brothers Of Metal world wide. Unholy Terror is a paper 'zine and will ever be but my homepage is also a part of Unholy Terror. There are news, live pics, cool links, blasphemous jokes and some info about Unholy Terror on my homepage. I think the unholy page is worth your attention, so check it out. http://home.t-online.de/

To me death metal is the music of the death, pain,  hate,  blood and evil topics,  what do you think about some "Death Metal" bands with other lyrics ?
6# Fuck Yeah, that's exactly what I feel. Death Metal is brutal, unholy and blasphemous, so it doesn't make sense when the lyrics are about peace, love and flowers. I mean, I listen to bands with political or philosophical lyrics and stuff like that but to create the perfect Death Metal atmosphere the lyrics must be blasphemous and brutal.  A brutal Death Metal band, singing about cats and dogs and the sun, is ridiculous, isn't it.   

I prefer bands with really blasphemous lyrics like IMMOLATION ("...Can you hear us   - death to Jesus...") or INCATATION. That's what I call Death Metal ! ! ! !
What can you say about the relation between metal and alcohol ?... Are you an alcoholic maniac?,  do you have some special kind of drink
HaHaHa, in my eyes metal and alcohol is the same. Yeah, I drink a lot of alcohol, mainly I drink beer. It's a great feeling to hang around with some friends and listen to Heavy Metal or even Death Metal and drink some beers. My favourite beer is Bitburger from Germany, it's what I call the nectar of the gods. It's a kind of life-water for me.  Of course I'm drinking this nectar of the gods while answering these questions. Cheers brother ! ! !

If in the future unholy terror will become a bigger magazine(with tons of advertisement..)etc
Yes, of course. Unholy Terror will be a big magazine with more ads than interviews and I will earn a lot of money, have some nice groupies, a Rolls Royce and a swimming pool. That would rule, HaHaHa. Okay serious now! Of course we will have some ads in our second issue but this is a must, cause making a 'zine is an expensive hobby. It's great if someone wants to run an ad but that doesn't mean that we have to interview his band. Unholy Terror is and will ever be a total Death Metal underground fanzine.

Tell us some about your relationship with your coeditor?
Andi isn't just my co-editor he is my Brother of Metal, he is one of my closest friends. We're friends since more than six years and he has a very similar taste of music. He is a 26 years old student of economics and lives in Cologne.! I'm so glad that he is a part of Unholy Terror. Hail brother ! ! ! By the way, he never drinks alcohol ! !

Final words
Brother, thank you very much for this interview and your support. Keep on with your good work. To all maniacs out there, buy a copy of Unholy Terror (price is 4 US$ world-wide) and keep the Metal of Death alive . . . write soon
