Metal madmen All This Filth reinvent themselves at The Civic Hotel this Friday, March 21, with help from One Of None, Nightmare Effect and Bunbury outfit Septillion. We talk to lead singer Brendan Preston.
What’s the All This Filth story?
All This Filth started in 2008, well actually late 2007, when my previous band, Dissonant, sort of broke up. We had so many lineup changes that we ended up changing the name and going in a different direction musically. We played our first show in 2008, so I usually say that’s when the band started.
What’s your sound?
Our sound is pretty hard to describe I guess. We mix in a bunch of different styles like thrash, groove metal, hardcore, industrial metal, death metal, etc. We all have very varied influences but our main ones are Sepultura, Fear Factory, Soulfly, Chimaira, Lamb Of God, Slayer and Machine Head, Pantera.
What can punters expect from the show?
Madness! The show is gonna be crazy, I mean we are gonna throw down! It’s been over a year since we have played a show, so we are keen to set it off. Plus we have some new material to debut. Aside from us there are some equally awesome bands who are just as keen to destroy the stage.
What does the future hold?
Hopefully we will be playing more shows in the near future; we are pretty keen to get back out there. Aside from that we are super busy writing new material and will hopefully be getting into pre-production at the end of this year or early next year for another release, whether it be an EP or an album. One thing’s for sure, we will be bringing some new All This Filth material out as soon as we can, whether it be live or recorded! We already have a bunch of new songs we are keen to get out there. Looking forward to it. We are ready to bring the madness!
