The next big thing! Octube
What did you do in the last six months?
Hello, I am the drummer Elias, thanks for the space granted us! Good question … I do not even remember what I ate for dinner yesterday (haha… shit) 6 months are a lot of time and we are 5 people quite a bit ‘messy, you can do a lot of things in 6 months! What definitely took a long time was the job of recording for the album now finally ready “Anima Liquida” or “Liquid Soul” if u prefer, it was a long conception, especially in order to find the time to register it as we wanted to also because some pieces have a very long history in I am particularly fond of, and remind me a lot further back than 6 months.
The song “Liquid Soul” was born, for example 4 years ago when I still was not even in the group and raped joseph acoustically with my glorious Ramper… Those were the days! The piece was then taken up and improved after the release of our previous self-titled album, then in time we have been able to refine the concept of “Liquid Soul”, which has become the whole concept of the album on which we then modeled as the other songs “Assurda Follia”, “Nuvole” and work together the result is a sound blended perfectly with the text, what we’ve worked very. Oh yeah… And a few days ago we shot the video for “Cosa Vedi” another piece of “Anima Liquida” a little ‘closer to our old albums! Our millions of fans who appreciated the old albums will be happy!
What do you’ve in your wallet now?
If the wallet is like a billfold there’s just “una mazza” as we say… For now is not what we are aiming, we just wish that people come to our music and i feel we have the credentials to do so.
How much important is the image (look) for your band? Why?
Very much! I personally would not leave the house unless dressed in Gucci, Armani, Prada, and lately I really like Hogan. Obviously there is nothing gives a fuck and I think people should stop looking when it comes to music and listen to.
What’s your idea of perfect happyness?
Happiness is… I don’t know… Depends on when I’m in, I would have a billion reasons to be happy and not to be so many, like Pope Ratzinger, Umberto Bossi, Calderoli, Alfonso Signorini, Gigi d’Alessio, Schettino…
Who are some of the bands you admire?
We have very different influences between us… There are those who hear metalcore, brutal, progressive metal double penetration (Mauro) who listens to pop Coldplay, Radiohead, Apparat, Massive Attack those who ehm… Blink 182 Incubus, Death, Nile, Meshuggah I could go on for days! Personally i grew up in drumming with Danny Carey of Tool, then I love the style of Freese in A Perfect Circle and Nine Inch Nails and literally go into a trance when I listen to Thomas Haake from incomprehensible Meshuggah! Ah… I was the one who listened to Blink…
What song is in your head right now?
I have an alien in the head!
What’s the most embarassing situation you’ve ever been with Outcube?
Once one of us has farted out of a hospital and an old woman became angry.
What’s the most ridiculous rumor you’ve read about the band?
Rumor was that Mauro said zoophiles, then in a press conference made it clear the misunderstanding.
Do you’ve a good reason to be in Behind Magazine?
Sure! But I do not remember now…
