Interview with Pista



-So, what can you tell me 'bout the history of Cad? Line-up, demos, etc.

Cad was formed in summer 1994...a group of three musical illiterates...they have released three demos in the style of shit-punk, except the last one "Na Odstrel", that was recorded before Christmas 1997, which is in the style Rip Core...Aggressive Rip Core.

-Who is responsible for lyrics & what is it about?

The lyrics are 'bout people in some key situations...& so, that doesn't matter...Haha. I'm writing the lyrics...Stofan Smrtihlav...& the lyrics are 'bout, that we got a diary of a man sentenced to death, that has commited a suicide in his cell...in Croatia...& according to that diary the lyrics are made (...& they are really good!)...it is translated from the Croatian language into a singing form.

-What do you say on our Grind scene?

Fuckin' cool. Embolism is OK & everything is OK...but there is nothin' in here...only Obliterate or what is the name of those dragons...& Lefo & his Deviant Viral Source...(...& Abortion)

-Do you plan something in the future?

We don't plan anything in the future, 'cause there will be the World War III.

-How often & how far did you play?

We played furthest in Prague & it was only once...Haha
How often? About 30 shows during 4 years, so not very much.

-Do you care 'bout politics? What do you think 'bout the political situation in Slovakia & in the world?

Of course, everything is fucked up & there must be a war.

-Do you sympathize with some organisations, which protect the rights of animals, etc.? Are you vegetarians?

Steaks are our favourite, we are no vegetarians & we protect nothing, only our chicken in hen-house, that we have for steaks.

-Do you have any idols?

Hmm...Jozef Kroner (a Slovak actor)...Haha...

-...how did he influence you?

...with Matko a Kubko (a cartoon, where Jozef Kroner was making the voices of both cartoons)...no really, this is our inspiration.

-If you'd have to choose between a concert for 300,-Sk (that's 'bout 10$) & stay in a pub, what would you choose?

The stay of the band in the pub for 300,-Sk

-...speaking of pub...what's your favourite drink?

Kofola (a Slovak drink similiar to Coca Cola - non-alcoholic). Really, we are all total abstainers, we don't smoke, not even pot, nothing.

-Is there anybody, that you'd like to show him a middlefinger or just kick his ass?

Hmm...Jozef Kroner...Haha.

-Where & how often do you rehearse?

We rehearse in Svaty Jur (a village near of Bratislava), by my Grandmother in the summer-kitchen...

-...what does she say on it?

Grandmother doesn't say anything...year & half she's...

-Why Cad? Whose idea was it?

Cad (sorry I don't know the english word for it) is a african country, with the count of people nearly like Slovakia, but only until last year, when there was a typhoid-epidemic & the count of people decreased by half...therefore Cad.

-Are you members of Jehovas witnesses?

Of course...Haha.

-Is there something, that you have forgotten & would like to say it at the end?

I haven't forgotten anything & I don't want to say anything at the end & thank you, dragons.


The review on the Na Odstrel demo will be in the next update...
