Would go beyond the scope of this
interview:
Kai: So many guys and gis in tis

Correct bulthey are bind in their
‘Soap problems tha they forget
‘about the real enemy.

Bjor: Anarcho punk st s an
important part of the whole
underground culure. Nevertheless,
everyling belongs to a kind of
consumer culure, no matier how
1y, people think they are. You
always have to make compromises
n'order to ablain somelhing. People
shouid stop taking everything so

'SOUNDS OF WAR: Whats wrong with anarcho punk? What started to be a culure

‘and fun o a commodty that have the problem The corporalions pick up on anyihing
that wears the rebelious mask. Cause they know there are {housands of mpressionable

by wearing a ha topic brand ararchy Shit, necklace, shoelaces, or headband. O yeah

1.SOUNDS OF WAR: Give

in several bands before, Andreas.
K and me played in a band called
Vendetta, and Kai and Jons are
having new band projects at the.
moment.

'SOUNDS OF WAR: S0 far who have you interviewed and which was your favorite?

JAY: So far vo intorviewed Audio kollaps (Germany). Hate Mail kilerz (US), Dexter
(Chumiey Atiack (US), Selfish (Filan). 10 Tons Of Kil You (US), Bombsirike (Sweden),
Machinegunife (US), Mass Separation (Valaysia), Ristely (Finiand), Fih Of Markind
(Poland), Despile (US), Distear (Sweden), and Uncurbed (Sweden). | had fun
interviewing allthe bands, but | thnk Uncirbed, Mass Separation and Risteyt were
probably my favourites. They seemed the most nfo being included in the zine, Acouple. 11
bands didn' really seem as though they were real into . nfact one band seams.
probably thought it was a retarded ok, (but | wonit crop names)..but f a hint
helps...they feel theyre 100 od or the purk rock festyle now. Shame. (Shit 1 shouldnt
