CIANIDE Interview 
  1. I started my journey with the Caustic  Death Doom album Descent into hell back in 90s what keeps the fires burning 3 going on four decades later?
Why stop? This is a hobby for us so there is no outside pressure. And just an all-around genuine love for all things metal. Being life longs friends also helps. 
  1. Chicago has a strong history for heavy Doom inspired bands like Trouble, Avernus , indian, immortal bird and Nov Doom to name a few . What bring so many from one region?
I have no idea. Guess were just born this way. 
  1. You've been working with Hells Headbangers for a few releases now before that seemed to be many different labels. What has made Hells Headbangers  a home?
Because Chase and the HHR crew are honest in their dealings and do what they say they are gonna do. No bullshit with these guys. 
  1. Does Cianide  releases have themes that tie together or just collection  of dark, heavy disturbing movements?
No themes other than the overwhelming feeling of death is coming for us all. 
  1. How has bandcamp, social media and podcasts changed the landscape for extreme  underground music ?
Just made things more accessible and easier to get music out there. These are positive tools if you like to use them. 
  1. What bands are currently impressing  members of Cianide?
Deathstrike, Celtic Frost, Slayer, Hellhammer, Slaughter and Post Mortem.
  1. Live or Studio which do you prefer and why?
Neither, would rather just play in the basement and stay down there forever. Drink some beer, gossip and play some metal with your best friends is all I need. I do enjoy the final outcome after recoding new songs though…so, maybe studio is best. 
  1. If there never was Cianide  what would have filled that artistic  and creative void?
Buying records, drinking beer and eating food. Is there anyway I can get paid to do this?
  1. If you could make a proper video  for any track on Unhumanized which would it be and how would it be presented  to world?
Traitors. A giant fuck you to all those who get out of metal and then come back years later and think they’re important now. 
  1. How does visuals and imagery  play into the overall presentation  and ideals of Cianide ?
It doesn’t. Were just three working class metal fans who happen to also play in a metal band. 
  1. 5 words to describe Cianide's sound?
Death, Doom, Destruction, Heavy, Metal. 
  1. One band you would love to hear cover a Cianide track and witness the outcome?
Any band with Tom Warrior doing one of our tunes would be fun.  
  1. Why do you think this kind of music never got the levels of success it has in Europe and South America?
Unground metal was never meant be successful. It’s strange it has become that way. 
  1. Do the current members of  Cianide have other musical projects you like to share with my readers?
No other projects. There are too many bands as it is. 
  1. Thanks for time any closing thoughts here. 

Thanks for your time. There really isn’t much for us to say anymore. Cheers.
