I read that when you started working on what has become this album, you were intending it to be a solo project. I saw the meme where you’ve got the hand sanitizer with the guys behind you.
Yeah, but I think people are having fun with it. Honestly, I was really afraid that it could have been seen as a very, very bad joke. Some people made fun of it, and it was really funny to us. Either people are not gonna pay attention to it, or it can go down very quickly, because they’re gonna think that it’s a very bad joke. ( laughs) You know, actually, we discussed it right before the release. We can get into the story of the album a little bit later, but I think it’s a coincidence, but it’s really kind of eerie to see a new band come out right now where all the band members are wearing plague masks. But yeah, I’m still singing every day and trying to learn new techniques that I like and that I hear from other singers that I admire, for example. So it was a nightmare, but now we are finally seeing the end of it. We had to send some merch items from one country to another and the next one. So we had a lot of envelopes and packages to send, and we’re still working on it, because we were supposed to work, the four of us, together to share the work, and this corona situation made everything more complicated. We did this crowdfunding campaign, which worked very well and which allowed us to have an album of which we are proud. Right now, a little bit less because I’ve been working on the crowdfunding perks that we had to send to everywhere. Since you’re not playing any shows, are you doing any vocal exercises or anything like that to keep your voice in shape, or are you just kind of resting for now? And we’re prepping some surprises that we will put online very soon.
#Ad infinitum merch how to
We had to kind of figure out how to do it from three different countries. Then the borders closed, and it was not possible anymore.
So at first, we were like, OK, we’re just gonna do a livestream concert. It’s a little bit hard for us because we are in three different countries. And then we discussed about merchandising, special videos-all kinds of content that is possible to put online right now. It was really open to the whole world, so it was really fun to have many people from everywhere. It wasn’t like a release show where only the people living in the area are able to come. We had this online release party, which was really cool because in the end, so many people were able to attend. Yeah, so what is your strategy for promoting the album now? But we had some Skype meetings with the guys, and we talked about what we can do to promote this album the best we can without playing live and to stay in touch with people and to offer some content the best we can. And it was very heartbreaking when we got to know that it was postponed to next year, which is a long time. ( laughs) Yeah, it was pretty sad because it was supposed to be Ad Infinitum’s first tour and our first chance to present our music live. You were supposed to be on tour in April, so what are you doing with this extra time you’ve had suddenly?Ĭrying. But it was actually still OK, and now things are opening again because everything was so efficient. We had to keep our distances with people, and many shops were closed. MELISSA BONNY: I’m in Denmark, and things are pretty good here, actually. Where are you now, and how are you making out so far? LIVE METAL: Well, first, we should talk about what’s going on in the world, this global pandemic.
