> Could you just remember us the origin of the name « Napalm Death » ??Barney: Its a horrible though and concept, thats why we choose to talk about it, we are anti war, and the Napalm is used to make munitions and bombs, you know.
> The French government is putting a brake to the evolution of metal music stages on the territory, what do you think about it?
Barney: You mean that is difficult to have permissions?
> Jems: We have some problems with associations of Christians, like when Impaled Nazarene came in France; they had to cancel the show because it was just before a Christian Day, because of their name
Barney: People like that shouldnt say to other what they have to do, or what they have to believe in. I mean, you know, if it was something like a fascist movement or some
thing like that, so, I would understand because its bullshit polluting thoughts, the same that in Germany, you know
.Of course, I dont agree with them> Lots of people considers Napalm Death like fathers of extreme music; are you in agreement with this image?
Barney: WELL!!!! There was a lot of bands before Napalm Death, you know, if you say that Napalm started Grind core, OK, yes, a new style of extreme music, than the other bands before, so this is more an evolution of extreme music, not a creation, you know
> How do you consider your way since the first album in 1982? Do you think your music is a perpetual evolution or stay in basics influences?
Barney: There is no starting point here in music, you know, you just have to remember where you came from and do what you love. First album was a natural processus; no one cou
ld imagine that we would be here again now.
> In your new album, Smear Campaign, you worked with Anneke Von Giersbergen, how did you have the idea to introduce female voice in your track?
Barney: Only because it was a particular track, with a special feeling, you know, we wanted to work with somebody totally exterior of the band, to give a special soul to the track Not only because this is a female voice, (we could choose any kid who can do it), just because this was in them of track
>Will you continue on this way?
Barney; who knows?? We dont even know how the future will be!!!! Maybe, maybe not
> A last message for french fan of napalm Death ?
Barney: Yes, thank you first, it was a pleasure!! Thanks for coming at the show, thanks for your support, see ya!!!!
