Hey!We are Alien Primata from Payerbach, Austria.
We've been making music since 1 or 2 years together, well I don't know.
The members are: Lukas Alves (vox, guitar)
Stefan Murent (leadguitar)
Ralph Rieger (bass)
Fred Mascavo (drums)
Why this name?
Alien Primata. Powerful music made by strange people and of course we thought it sounds well.
Do you play live?
Yes, we love to play live. Mainly we're playing in the neighbor cities.
Each of us is happy, if our audience is happy.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Some of it is good, like you can download or exchange music and so you're able to reach people all over the world very quickly. The bad thing is that all the music has lost in value, because you can get anything you want for free.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Well, Maybe. Because we don't wanna be a marionette controled by a boss of a major label.
Your influences?
Red Hot Chili Peppers; Sublime; Led Zeppelin; Rage Against The Machine; Modest Mouse, John Frusciante, Incubus and so on.
Favorite spot?
Vienna.
Equipment used:
Me, the leader and singer of the band, well I'm using an old Fender Telecaster, which is pretty cool. My efx are Boss boxes like: Turbo Overdrive; Chorus; Phase Shifter, the EHX Big Muff, a Vox Volume Pedal (which sucks), the Ibanez WD-7 Wah-pedal and a Digitech digital delay.
Stefan is using also a Fender guitar, but a Stratocaster. His efx are three Boss boxes, like the Reverb, Turbo Distortion and Digital Delay. He's using the Ibanez WD-7 Wah as well.
Ralph is using an Ibanez bass and sometimes a Squier jazzbass.
Our drummer Fredi digs on Zildjian cymbals and the drumsets vary.
Anything else...?
You are not your job, you're not how much money you have in the bank, you're not the car you drive, you're not the contents of your wallet, you're not your f***ing khakis. You are the all singing, all dancing, crap of the world.
