I have conducted a few interviews and will be posting them as I publish on the page. I hope this eventually turns into a printed version, but for now I'll be trying to update the page weekly. Any comment or ideas to improve the page are more than welcome...
First up: Malokarpatan
https://www.stringofdiscord.com/en/malokarpatan-interview/
Good stuff, Diego.
G'wan Diego! Looking forward to seeing more here. Jesus that Malokarpatan picture though..
Thanks lads. I already have some others lined up, but I am trying to space it out with one interview a week so it doesn't get too heavy on me with all the translations to the Portuguese version.
Next up: POSSESSION
https://www.stringofdiscord.com/en/possession-interview/
Just posted another one up that might interest some of ye here. This was done by my friend Vitor from Brazil and focuses more on the achievements of notorious album Nykta, although it does discuss some of the band's current affairs.
Next up: ZEMIAL (Greece)
https://www.stringofdiscord.com/en/zemial-interview/
Ah, saw them/him share that on FB but didn't make the connection. Will have a look now.
Edit: excellent interview! I've been lucky enough to talk with the man himself quite regularly, both by mail and in person, over the last few years and he's a great individual, in the true sense of great.
Just read the Possession and Zemial interviews. Good stuff. I can't wait for the new Zemial album/s.
Next one up: Denial of God (Denmark)
https://www.stringofdiscord.com/en/denial-of-god-interview/
I really enjoyed their last output "the hallow mass". Horror-infused Black Metal done right.
Really enjoyed the Malokarpatan and Possession interviews so far. Nice one.
Next up: Cleveland's MIDNIGHT.

Next up is with a cult band for us in Brazil, but not very popular worldwide: MYTHOLOGICAL COLD TOWERS.
Their drummer Alan lived in Ireland for a while, sound fella. But anyways...I must confess I didn't like this interview at all, despite it isn't my interview, in hindsight we should have contacted the singer and lyricist instead, he would have definitely given us more insightful answers about their unique work. If you haven't heard of them, do yourself a favour and check their "Immemorial" album...proper Doom Metal.

Great band, think the drummer is the only one with reasonable English. That was definitely the case a few years ago.
Personally, "Immemorial" is hands down the best album to have come out of Brazil in the 2000's.
I'd know fuckall underground Brazilian bands to be perfectly honest, just lucky enough to play a coupla gigs with MCT when they came to Ireland a few years ago. But ya, brilliant album.
Next up: Annick Giroux from Canadian heavy-doom metal CAUCHEMAR and TEMPLE OF MYSTERY RECORDS.

I had started posting some of the interviews online with STRING OF DISCORD, and they're now featured in this issue of my Portuguese-written printed zine REVELAÇÕES ABISSAIS ZINE, among newer ones, reviews, other zine overviews and so on.
I wonder if it'd be worth printing all the interviews which were originally done in English under the STRING OF DISCORD moniker. Maybe just a short run for the Irish audience...only the interviews in this case. What do ye reckon? Any insight is much appreciated.
I'd buy one.
id take one also
That's how it turned out.
Trying to get it licenced all the 5 issues in English.
Woa, that's a beast, some going! I'd be after a copy as well whenever you manage to sort things out.
