Aus der immer pulsierenden schwedischen Stadt Stockholm kommen Decadence. Die Melodic-Death- und Thrash-Metal-Band wurde 2003 gegründet und besteht aus dem Duo Kitty („Metallic Kitty“) Saric und Kenneth Lantz, die wirklich alles selbst machen. Sogar die Promo wird im Grunde nur durch Streetteams erledigt. Dies ist ein Grund mehr, euch die Combo vorzustellen. Sängerin Kitty beantwortete unsere Fragen.
Who is behind Decadence?
I founded Decadence back in 2003.

If you had to put your music into a drawer and print a label on it, what would it say?
“METAL”.

Forget about genres for a second – DECADENCE’s music sounds like …?
The base is Thrash Metal in the style of Testament and Kreator while there is another level of melody and viciousness over it that could remind of Death. The vocals follow that same combination.

Which sort of mood produces the best songs?
A daredevil mood and night-time creativity.

Which instrument will surely NEVER be heard on a DECADENCE-album?
Does clean vocals count?

Which record would you want to listen to when you leave the bathroom in the morning, while the hot guy from last night is still in your bed?
“The Sound of Perseverance” by Death haha…

The Fairy-Godmother pops up in front of you and grants you a wish. What do you wish for?
Keep my close ones safe. No alcohol is no solution either.

What booze combination will definitely dissolve all your troubles and issues?
As for beverages, Jack and Earl always stick with me.What shows you that someone is a true friend?
Loyalty.

Who was the hero of your childhood?
James Hetfield of Metallica.

What is the most embarrassing/surprising record in your CD-shelf?
I’m a fan of Garage Rock / Psych from around ’68-’75. So you could quite a few little treasures from that era in myself.

What’s next? Tour? Studio? Vacation? Something completely different?
I always work on some grand master plans. Stay tuned to see what I come up with next or find me hitting the iron at the gym.
