Case in point, his latest track, Orgy At Your Burial, goes hard in both the total degeneracy and the noisy cacophony. The song is a loud, serpentine offering that hails back to a time before black metal became another polished, easily-mimicked aspect of heavy metal at large. Simultaneously, it hails the erotic horrors of having one's funeral turned into a nightmarish fuckfest.
We took a moment to speak to the Necrosexual about his motivations, his inspirations, and what makes for a good Tom Araya scream.
Tell me about the events that inspired Orgy On Your Burial.
Orgy On Your Burial is an Edgar Allen Poe-inspired erotic tale. A supreme act of vengeance and hedonism. Bury your arch nemesis, and fornicate en mass where they lie. If you don't have a twisted revenge fantasy you've thought of at least once, I say you're either a liar or a true psychopath. I intend to horrify and arouse the listener with this song, and all my Necrosexual show tunes in general.
In your experience, should one have sex with a corpse before, after, or during a satanic ritual?
Do whatever the hell gives you a proper heavy metal hard on. But first, be sure to get a hard "yes" on the old Ouija board before you dive in for post mortal penetration. Be a gentleman and a pervert.
Your music balances between super cult and filthy fun. Is it hard to strike that sweet spot between grim and sleazy?
I'm the most electrifying man in corpse entertainment. So, my sonic assault needs to cover a spectrum of brutality. My riffs will pulverize you. My lyrics will seduce you. My arrogance will anger you. Whatever you feel, it's to all to amuse you. It's easy for me to strike that grim n' sleazy sweet spot because music is an amplification of who I am. I love gnarly, riff-obsessed thrash metal. Evil black metal filth. I also love the over-the-top rock n roll attitude of the eighties, and it pairs well with my dark sense of humor.
