Interview With Nathan Trash Of World Class White Trash
BSK-Sweet lets get this goin! Where did you guys get the name of your band? Personally I love it!
Nathan-The band name actually came from darcys old band with cayle from Archelaos, (the band they were in together was Zeitgeist i believe) now im just paraphrasing but wat i remember darky (darcys nickname) tellin me that cayle called him and there bassplayer watson that they were "world class white trash" so afterwards darcy left the band and took the name. so that one is all darcy haha. he actually had lots of our original songs before most of us joined, (*sorry darcy if i missed anything! haha) andy (drums) trevor (leads) and our old bassist originally hated the name so we changed it to the art of war, needless to say fans hated it and wcwt stuck like nails in a coffin haha
BSK-hahaha right on!
Do you guys have plans to tour after you get the CD out?
Nathan-Well theres ALWAYS talk and excitement about touring and promotion but as of now we have no solid touring plans, mostly finish up the show season record our asses off, we got a slew of new songs to tweak and perfect and matty, our new vocalist (ex- The Devils Own/NFG Props to both!) still has to be incorporated into some songs. that's my fault though for being neglectful haha. so our winter is gonna be busy. and with me having a pregnant girlfriend takes a bit of time up to hahaha. she is very supportive though and knows how big apart of my life these guys and my band are. but a very solid tour will come soon. all things in good time brother! we know the fans are waitin for it!
and darcy most likely spending most of his time up north working we have to make sure we use downtime wisely cause he busted his ass on scratch tracks to make sure we have something to while he is gone. kudos to him for making sure we continue to have an amazing jam space
BSK-What do you guys have coming up? Any shows to look forward to?
Nathan-October 5th haha unlucky thirteen, and we may do one of the dates for the Calgary Beer Core Metal versus punk. and were up for a jumble of CBC awards too so be sure to vote up everyone!! other than that were getting ready to hibernate and record haha
BSK-What you would do in a Zombie Apocalypse?
Nathan-Well I would horde a bunker with decaying corpses and flesh to make myself invisible to the zombies then I would hunker down for a couple months till there brains decompose hahaha none of this mad max shit let em rot. its not like zombies can sexually or asexually reproduce haha
BSK-The one I wanted to ask is , being a member of the local Calgary music industry . What do ya think of the way things are going? and what do you think should be done?. As a performer I'm sure things could be better.
Nathan-well the way I see it is by calling yourself apart of a designated scene your including yourself in the opinions and actions of that scene as a whole, I like to say were all part of the Canadian scene. Calgary Edmonton red deer med hat lethbridge those are our roots and we should never forget that but at the same time we shouldn't condemn ourselves to just those scenes were all in Canada so were all Canadian metal. we need to stop having band on band beefs and bands dropping gigs just cause one of the other bands on the bill doesn't play the same style or some shit
more friends less dead ends
BSK-well put dude! I really like that comment! The Canadian Music industry needs more people that can get along despite differences in Genre! I would like to see more bands involved in multi genre shows! - If you were to want something to change the scene here in Calgary what would it be?
Nathan-More heavier radio for local heavy/ punk bands
more stuff like your doing too online networking is the new area of central exposure
btw thanks for the exposure!! hahaha
BSK-no problem dude! It will be posted today
CHEERS!
