The most important thing for us is to feel the hunger of the crowd, to create a proper representation of the sacred Temple of WATAIN and to leave the concert visitors with memories of ecstasy, magic and mystery. The art of WATAIN is based to a great extent on energies that rely on conflict, turmoil, rebellion and chaos, so if anything I think we can only gain from such a context. We have gone to countries where there have been ongoing conflicts before, so this is not an issue.

Did you have any doubts – to go or not to go to our country? In our country, namely in the east of Ukraine an armed conflict is still ongoing on, already for 5 years, and some European bands are just afraid to come here with concerts, especially in the beginning when the war has started in 2014. I think the raging Satanic madness of a WATAIN concert could be very interesting in this environment. So the upcoming EASTERN ECLIPSE TOUR is an attempt to cover more ground and discover more of the underground darkness in some of the less trodden parts of Europe… We have heard great things about the audience in Ukraine and after having visited Kiev myself a few years ago I got very hungry to come back to perform there. Special indeed! We have always had a very strong tie to eastern Europe in general and it has been frustrating to not be able to perform in all the countries there yet. New country, first show – is it something special for you and WATAIN? Just less than two month left to your first time ever performance in Ukraine.
