Hi Aurelius,

Thanks for Taking your time for Conducting the interview with PromoFabrik.
Maybe You Should Introduce Yourself to bits To Our readers / listeners As They May Not yet That you know well.

1) You Have Been around since 1996. Can you Disclose some more about the work and history of "Anima Virus?
1) The project was born as a Virus Core requirement in a strictly personal musically represent some of the most common concerns of our time (beginning of the Age of Aquarius) such as social alienation, cynicism, oppression chemical / mental, rampant materialism, the agonizing feeling of the end of an era, the radical change of nature, etc. ..

2) What does the name "Anima Virus" stand for?
2) The project name comes from some plays on words and meanings, often overlapping in different languages as their base etymological words taken from Latin and ancient greek.
The term "soul" is meant the human spirit, that awareness of being united to the term "virus" that is poisonous substance and essence evil they create a very broad meaning in relation to reflections on 'humanity and its current condition.
I think that humanity has experienced and is experiencing its evolution destructive and self harm for their actions on this planet. Symbolic behavior in many respects similar to viruses. It 'a name that includes a reflection on anxiety as a result of extreme el'inquietudine single "virus", that human being who takes awareness of their condition, its nature and the corrupt world around him.

3) Your album "End of the Eden" has been released A Few days ago. The name has Inspired me on many speculations before listening to your music. What is this the core or common topics? Is it Meant to be a concept album?
3) Since the end of Eden, and then the beginning of "our inevitable infringement" stems' s continued momentum groped and harassed in the achievement of a threshold "Gothic".
A threshold equalize. Limit contact with an entity or a civilization that pulverizes anthropocentric illusions spiritual stillness.
Could be interpreted as a concept album if you intend to frame the atmosphere within the songs, so their background or soundscape, as an immersion into many strong reflections on the origin of man and his passions, illusions or achievements over the centuries. In this sense is a concept album.
But the correlations between a song and the other shall be construed as less intuitive or direct.

4) When listening to your music, I personally feel a touch of old gothic bands and David Bowie in it. What are your musical heroes and influences?
4) Yes, I was very influenced by several historical bands goth scene (most of all: Christian Death, Bauhaus, Sisters of Mercy, Play Dead, Neon), but also by Iggy Pop, David Bowie, Elvis, Roxy Music, Billy Idol, the Japan and Duran Duran and many others in different genres and away from the gothic rock! However you need to keep in mind that a lot of stuff that is and has been called "gothic dance hall from" the 90s' onwards, I was not influenced in any way and has piqued my interest ... and I think that this difference Note.

5) Despair "normal" contemporary gothic bands, you enrich your sound with electronic sounding flavors Which make it much more fresh n new. How do you create the songs?
5) I start with a concept, an idea. I guess the song.
I islands. Contemplate again.
I start the sequencer, connect the power tools to Daw, synths amplifiers and let all ideas flow as if they were rushing rivers that feed the river and generate high waves and black ....
However it is not easy to trace all the steps that combine to create what you hear on the album. And 'a job that is different always. I have a "method" standard in programming sampler or effect of rumors or guitars or cure slicing rhythmic loops and drum machines.

6) If you are asked to Describe your style of music, what would you say?
6) Dark, original, morbid, "powerful, very catchy and full of nuances.
I often say that my songs sound like all those goth-hits unparalleled marketing and completely out of fashion or trends.
And this is very gratifying because I've always avoided superficially. I find the thought repulsive to adapt to the scene to float in it. In all honesty, would not make sense for me to "normalize" in a scene sterile and mostly repetitive.

7) In your songs I Perceive a strong philosophical background. Such topics are you interested in, or in biblical backgrounds like "Eden"?
7) I am very interested, from a historical perspective, the hypothesis that Eden really existed thousands of years ago on this Earth (or around ..). What happened is a kind of rebellion of the human race against a racial "superiority", which has resulted in a "physical and cultural extinction", hence, probably, I think there is a strong correlation between the images, representations of superhuman and divine concepts are very similar in most ancient cultures and far on our planet.

Who or what is Zdzislaw Beksinski? Is there a story behind it?
Zdzisław Beksiński (1929 -2005) Was a renowned Polish painter, photographer, sculptor and representation, with the best-known examples coming from His 'fantastic realism' When he painted period Disturbing images of a surrealistic, post-apocalyptic environment. He soon Became the leading figures in contemporary Polish art. He created very Disturbing images, Showing a surrealistic, post-apocalyptic environment with very Detailed scenes of death, decay, landscapes filled with skeletons, deformed figures and deserts.
The cold surrealism, the disturbing visions dreams, silences post apocalyptic artist influenced me tremendously. For this reason I wanted to pay him an instrumental track in "End of the Eden" trying to play in key sound atmospheres dilated and distressing of his paintings.

9) If you sing about Adam, Eve Where Did You Leave Behind?
9) In the song "Adam" metaphors by describing the genesis of the human race, which could be a bit 'different from that described by Sir Darwin!
But also very different from the "veiled truth" of the sacred writings ...
However there is a song called "Eve" and speak of the human being and his spirituality: the other side of the moon symbolically.
The hidden and closer to the "ancient sages who came from heaven."
And I will take part in upcoming productions.

10) How to Italian band Comes That has Such a strong Influence from Californian death-rock bands in it sound? Have you lived there ounce?
10) Ever been to California.
But many audio cassettes or Lps I heard every day until dawn were produced in those parts!

11) I Have listened to the Echo and the Bunnymen-cover a lot and I Have Been Interpreted surprised to get the song by somebody else at all. Why did you choose to cover That specific song of That Great band?
11) Killing Moon is a song that I always appreciated. It 's a dreamy song, very romantic. My cover is a more decadent and "poisonous", perhaps more in line with the desolate landscape of our times.

12) Have Sadly I never see you performing live yet. Are there Any plans to go on tour?
12) Of course, intentions are those performed in a number of dates in Europe during that year. Www.animavirus.com through our site you will be informed of all concert activities. For more information, please contact the following email: information@animavirus.com

Pass me, always ... and step over the threshold Gothic.
