INTERVIEW 7/21/98
THE INTERVIEWERZ:
SAM: "I think I need to change my pants"
JASON O: Had all the damn questions
STEVE: "Come on Jason, sign my butt!"
THE INTERVIEWED:
JASON FUCKIN' NEWSTED!
The following is PART of an interview we di
d on July 21st in Hartford CT, after a show on the
"Poor Re-Touring Me" tour...the first section of this
interview will eventually be posted on this site, but
is going in the first issue of the Offical Machine Head
Fanclub 'zine first...so when that finally happens
(sigh), it'll be here...and the interview will be
complete..for now though..enjoy
JASON N: Ok one more question since that one took 5 minutes..
JASON O: About...this whole Sepultura thing, you're on the new album?
(laughter)
JASON N: How they came to the studio...2 days after the uhhh..last
leg of this tour and stayed at the house for a week..
all of Sepulutra stayed at my house..My girlfriend was freakin' out
(laughter) anyway..
SAM: With the new singer
JASON N: Yeah with the new singer, and it was all good
...And we wrote a song together called "Hatered Aside"
and uhh..swapped vocals with Derrick and Andreas.
We all did vocals and did the chorus together, so it's
very metal and it's very old school,
it's like, the same type of thing...we got together
the first night, smoked, drank, messed around
a little bit (laughter) and then just the next day
go in and (makes noises). (laughter)
and they were, ya know, spittin all their portugese out
(something in portugese) (laughter) just fuckin pissed
off, they don't...nobody...there's no like buffer,
there's no inbetween, or a fuse, ya know? Just like...
this happens and this guy doesn't like it "ARGHHH!"
they just go at eachother and scream and scream and
scream, and like ummm...A little more, and
a little more, and that's right. And if one guy likes
his part and the other guy doesn't like it, but this
guy won't change it, he just goes (in Brazilian accent)
"I love it" like that...any one of 'um..."I love it"
and nobody else says anything, that's it, that part
is staying (laughter). Once somebody says that, then
that's ok, nobody is gonna step on it once this guy
loves it. so we just built that back and forth, and it
was the coolest thing..to be able to play with Igor
because
SAM: He's nuts...
JASON N: He's the shit, he's the best drummer in
heavy metal, there's no question about it...and
SAM: Lars should be bowing..(laughter)
JASON N: Dude, don't even get me started.(too many
people talking at once)..not even gonna talk about
that...it's a different...Lars plays this kinda
drums...Igor plays this kinda drums..and he does this
good, and Lars does this better...
JASON O: New singer sounds good? Derrick is cool?
JASON N: Yeah, my opinion of Derrick is ...for his
voice-wise...If Paul Baloff in 1984, would've taken
care of himself, would've rode a bike, ate healthy
...ya know, all that..taken care of himself, this voice
is that. If Paul Baloff was ever superpowerful, that's
what this guy sounds like.
JASON O: That's interesting...
JASON N: It is..it really is, it's full blown..
and his appearance is like bloodthursty...big guy
JASON O: I know, I saw the pictures
JASON N: Big guy...and uhh..pretty scary,
but very focused also. And the thing...like the
SoulFly record is cool for what it is, kinda noisy,
cool for what it is...
SAM: Sounds kinda like "Roots"
JASON N: But, Sepultura has a better drummer and
guitar player to start with, from the get go...
so
SAM: And Logan fucked everything up
(laughter)
JASON: Eh, whatever, that's too bad that he made that
decision, I think. Ya know, I heard they got somebody
..but if you keep changing people all the time, the
magic is gonna change, it's never gonna be the same
SAM: Really pissed Adam off too...
JASON N: I donno, I don't know what to say...about
that shit
JASON O: They really like the new guy though, I was
talking to thier manager...
JASON N: I hope so, hopefully he'll be more
focused than Logan, Logan would start to get a
little too high...
JASON O: He's writting new stuff for the band already
and they really like it so...
JASON N: That's good...maybe they need a fresh kick in the
butt, maybe it'll be for the better...Robb is very
ddetermined, very serious individual...There ya go,
I gotta split
