You always see the same. The same<br \/>\n\u00a0 people, the same bus, the same&#8230;every concert hall looks the same, the first<br \/>\n\u00a0 thing I do as I wake up is find the breakfast room and it is always a big labyrinth<br \/>\n\u00a0 for me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 *Peter and Rob laugh big time.*<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8211; Did you had any doubts continuing after Christopher left, because he wrote<br \/>\n\u00a0 the lyrics?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 <em>Oliver:<\/em> \u201cFor me I like the new singer more, but that is only my opinion.<br \/>\n\u00a0 For me&#8230;it was always clear that I will continue.

But if we can attract with every new record two new persons who like<br \/>\n\u00a0 to listen to our music it is okay for me. So I did not thought about stop playing<br \/>\n\u00a0 music, only because my brother left, okay he wrote the lyrics but&#8230;I have new<br \/>\n\u00a0 girls in my group.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 <em>Peter:<\/em> \u201cHe is talking about us now&#8230;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 <em>Oliver:<\/em> \u201cAnd they write lyrics too, for me there is&#8230;.I don&#8217;t miss him,<br \/>\n\u00a0 it is hard, but the relationship between me and my brother is better then ever,<br \/>\n\u00a0 since he left the band. It is funny to see this because we meet at family parties,<br \/>\n\u00a0 and as we composed the new record it was not clear if he would definately leave<br \/>\n\u00a0 the band. We had about 5 song finished then I had the big problem to find the<br \/>\n\u00a0 follower for him, because I wanted not like Nightwish a complete different voice.<br \/>\n\u00a0 I wanted exactly the same voice. Exactly the same!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 <em>Oliver<\/em> *tries to catch some breath*: \u201cAnd a vocalist is not a guitar or a<br \/>\n\u00a0 keyboard player. It is very hard. I found some perfect voices but also found<br \/>\n\u00a0 so many crap voices. We always lose time because our label said to me we have<br \/>\n\u00a0 to release the next CD as fast as you can. It is a gap between the former record<br \/>\n\u00a0 and the new one is more than 3 years, you loose so many fans you got with the<br \/>\n\u00a0 last record. And in Germany we have many, many of them. So we have to try to<br \/>\n\u00a0 find new member, as fast as we can to record the CD as fast as we can, because<br \/>\n\u00a0 this is our release plan and you have to do it our way, like we will it.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 I really lost so many time at band rehearsals, because we had many talented<br \/>\n\u00a0 singers but no one sounded just like Christopher. I got an email from him and<br \/>\n\u00a0 two weeks later he stood near in the rehearsal room and if I turned back or<br \/>\n\u00a0 forward or to the side&#8230;I thought Christopher stood beside me..it is&#8230;weird.<br \/>\n\u00a0 The good thing is that he can sing like Christopher but he can do more&#8230;Christopher<br \/>\n\u00a0 has one voice, that was okay, but he can do more.

Now we brought so many new elements in our music and it makes it more<br \/>\n\u00a0 different than other Gothic rock bands, our style. For us it is important because<br \/>\n\u00a0 our style, if if you read an review about our music you always read two names:<br \/>\n\u00a0 Him and 69eyes. It is okay we like both bands but ..for me, it is time to&#8230;we<br \/>\n\u00a0 like to get our own style.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8211; How did you ended up touring with Apocalyptica, 69eyes and Apocalyptica has<br \/>\n\u00a0 the same manger is that the link?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 <em>Oliver<\/em>: First of all we know the 69eyes and wanted to tour with them so I checked<br \/>\n\u00a0 the website to check when they wanted to play in America. To see the dates but<br \/>\n\u00a0 saw they changed the management from a Finnish one to a German one so I thought<br \/>\n\u00a0 lets contact the management because in Finland you have to wait 2 weeks&#8230;before<br \/>\n\u00a0 someone replies. He said to me, sorry you don&#8217;t have any chance to play this<br \/>\n\u00a0 tour. You need 3 months to get a working permit\/visa thing. And that cost 3<br \/>\n\u00a0 months&#8230;will not work. Okay then he said&#8230;hey, who are you by the way?<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 So I explain him who we are and he said please send me some CD&#8217;s and a biography.<br \/>\n\u00a0 I did of course, and then I did not hear anything for a month but suddenly I<br \/>\n\u00a0 got an email from him and he said \u201cI am also a publisher, would you like<br \/>\n\u00a0 to sign with me? \u201d But I don&#8217;t play music to make money, I play music to<br \/>\n\u00a0 reach more fans.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 <em>Oliver<\/em> *smiles and continues*, \u201cHe said: \u201cI can give you some contacts<br \/>\n\u00a0 and I know that you wanted to play with 69eyes and then he said maybe there<br \/>\n\u00a0 is a change to play with Apocalyptica\u201d, and I said yeah&#8230;So yeah the link<br \/>\n\u00a0 is the manager.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8211; Is the audience very different this tour because they came to see Apocalyptica?<\/strong><br \/>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 <em>Oliver:<\/em> \u201cFor us we played shows with Lacuna Coil and 69eyes and we always<br \/>\n\u00a0 played Germany, Swiss and Austria so the people know us in these countries.<br \/>\n\u00a0 So as we got the offer to play with Apocalyptica we had the choice to play again<br \/>\n\u00a0 those country or try to catch some new fans and play in countries we never played<br \/>\n\u00a0 before. And maybe for some old fans who are waiting.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 I think we had one concert in Holland that was 5 years or longer&#8230;.for us we<br \/>\n\u00a0 don&#8217;t expect to see any fans of us, in front of the stage because that is the<br \/>\n\u00a0 reason we play this tour.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Peter:<\/em> \u201cWe want new fans&#8230;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 <em>Oliver:<\/em> &#8230;\u201cCompletely new audience, so perhaps sometimes we expect too<br \/>\n\u00a0 much of them, because most of them and maybe 99% see us playing the first time<br \/>\n\u00a0 in their lives, this is like an advertising tour for us. We play our first time<br \/>\n\u00a0 in London and it will be in the famous Astoria in London. So hey&#8230;pfff&#8230;we<br \/>\n\u00a0 are so happy because we get the chance to play exactly this part of the tour<br \/>\n\u00a0 because in Germany, and all the people that likes Gothic music they all know<br \/>\n\u00a0 our name. Don&#8217;t know if they like what we do, but they know our name. But now<br \/>\n\u00a0 it is time to check out other countries and European fans&#8230;it is time to play<br \/>\n\u00a0 in front of them, and that some of them hopefully likes us and remembers our<br \/>\n\u00a0 name after the tour.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 <em>After a little break and thinking Oliver continues<\/em>: \u201cThis was an adventure<br \/>\n\u00a0 for us too, because I don&#8217;t know which group fans like Apocalyptica they attract<br \/>\n\u00a0 many types of fans&#8230;they have a really big group of different people, I don&#8217;t<br \/>\n\u00a0 know who are really Gothic or Metallica fans, You cant compose music that everyone<br \/>\n\u00a0 likes. You can only compose music you like and try to perform in front of people,<br \/>\n\u00a0 and they can see that you love what you are doing. I m sure if you can bring<br \/>\n\u00a0 that energy on to the audience then they can see&#8230;and think hey, I like this<br \/>\n\u00a0 shit.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; The sound was bad at the Amsterdam gig, last Friday..do you notice that kind<br \/>\n\u00a0 of things on stage? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 <em>Oliver:<\/em> \u201cI heard this, I asked the mixer &#8230;because when I left the stage<br \/>\n\u00a0 I was very satisfied with the whole gig but after we met him backstage he said<br \/>\n\u00a0 we had so many problems. Because if you stand in front of the stage it is very<br \/>\n\u00a0 wide, if you stand on the stage you don&#8217;t have much space. Rob stands directly<br \/>\n\u00a0 in front of the drums, and to get a good mix for the people outside you have<br \/>\n\u00a0 to have all the instruments completely, it would be perfect if they would all<br \/>\n\u00a0 be in their own rooms. But Rob had the microphone in front of the drums, and<br \/>\n\u00a0 you could hear the drums though his microphone, and the drums were also coming<br \/>\n\u00a0 out of Rob&#8217;s monitors. So the sound guy had to do something, otherwise it was<br \/>\n\u00a0 complete crap&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 So it is very important for the sound, what stage we play but this is not an<br \/>\n\u00a0 excuse for a bad sound, but I just wanted to explain why it was so bad or you<br \/>\n\u00a0 cant hear it because so many drums came via his vocal microphone&#8230;we had to<br \/>\n\u00a0 switch it of and that was just shit.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8211; Can you tell anything about the new album?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 <em>Oliver:<\/em> \u201cIn the new songs we always try to put the best parts of the music<br \/>\n\u00a0 of the bands we like in one song.

The songs, the title, the artwork, it all has to fit together.<br \/>\n\u00a0 For me all the songs talk about the last few.

The story behind the song&#8230;in our video clips.<br \/>\n\u00a0 But at these times so many TV-stations say we don&#8217;t want to play rock or harder<br \/>\n\u00a0 stuff , and the video cost a lot of money so sometimes it makes no sense to<br \/>\n\u00a0 make a video therefore in these times it is not always possible to make one.<br \/>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 But our label said to me they have so many bands under contract but we are the<br \/>\n\u00a0 only band they wanted to shoot a video again.

And it cost you two hours to find what you want to find,<br \/>\n\u00a0 because everyone has the chance to put his shit on the internet.
