Just after their performance on the New Blood Stage on the Friday at Bloodstock, we had a quick chat with two of the members of K-Lacura about their upcoming performance and also any bands they are looking forward to seeing. Read on for the full transcription:
Is this your first time at Bloodstock?
As a playing band yes, but we’ve been here before and are long-haul Metal 2 the Masses triers.
What would you say the difference between being a musician and a punter here is?
It’s a big difference and it’s great. Everyone was so professional and we were treated great and we’ve been having a blast so far. It’s good to finally be able to play here after trying the M2TM so many times. Simon loved that as well as we’re kind of a ‘keep on trying’ message.
Are you guys sticking around this weekend?
We are but we are down a drummer already as he’s off on his honeymoon with his new wife. We are then playing a wedding tomorrow in Oxford but are coming back on Sunday for sure. We are effectively a glorified wedding band!
What bands are you guys looking forward to seeing?
We’ve already seen Whitechapel and Soilwork who were awesome. Testament and Amon Amarth are the other two bands we’re really looking forward to today.
What are your plans for the next few months?
We’re going to be taking some time off to write some new music. We’ve not written anything for the past four years so we think it’s about time we write some new stuff and then get back out on the road gigging.
What bands would you pick for Bloodstock?
Probably Parkway Drive and Thy Art Is Murder. A lot of Australian stuff at the moment as there’s some great stuff coming out these days.
