Although he was touring the US all through the month of October, Steve Asheim, Deicide’s drummer and one of its two pillars, still found the time to answer our questions via e-mail on the occasion of the release of In The Minds Of Evil, the band’s latest album, a very good vintage that will hit stores on November 25th. The answers are brief and straightforward, but they’re also honest. At the very least they show Asheim does have a strong character – which is quite coherent for someone who plays such uncompromising and fiendish death metal. And it’s probably that very same character that turned the Florida-based musicians into a cult band, recognized as much for their music as for their mischief and clashes in civilian life.
The following interview obviously revolves around In The Minds Of Evil, but it was also a good opportunity to talk about Asheim’s love for classical piano, about some of his old colleagues to whom he shows no mercy, and about the Hellfest (French festival), which has already cancelled the band twice in the past.
