Roland的最新訪談!!
as title....
Adam Harrold of Rock Something recently conducted an interview with
MASTERPLAN guitarist Roland Grapow. A few excerpts from the chat follow:
On the departure of vocalist Jorn Lande:
"Of course I was a little bit insecure at first and I have to admit that I
was frightened about how things would go, but Mike DiMeo [Lande's
replacement] is very easy to work with and he has a great voice. Jorn left
because of musical differences, he felt the songwriting wasn't in his style
and that the songs were making him sing too high, or whatever. . . He wanted
to do more basic rock material — like his solo work. He has to look after
himself and he thought that in 10 or 20 years time he wouldn't be able to
sing them any more. Jorn's a great singer and it was really hard because
there was no solution as we liked the MASTERPLAN style. So Jorn left and I
was sad about that, but we remain good friends which is really nice."
On the acrimonious split with drummer Uli Kusch:
"The situation with Uli left me feeling alone. Uli started fighting about
business and not music until it got to a stage where I just didn't want to
work with him anymore. There's still a bad feeling, but he was being
destructive so it had to be done."
On new drummer Mike Terrana:
"The drumming is more basic than before. We have a rock drummer who isn't
trying to be too tricky or elaborate. His style gives space to the music,
he's more of a Cozy Powell- or John Bonham-style drummer."
On MASTERPLAN's new album, "Mk II":
"Yeah, I've done many great interviews so far and everyone's really
enthusiastic about the new album. Everyone loves it. I must have done seventy
or eighty interviews and nobody has had a bad word to say about it, but I'm
not surprised because everyone was so positive and creative when we were
recording. I love the record, I play it all the time, especially when I'm in
the car — I just love it."

他談論有關新舊主唱和新舊鼓手的事。
其實我覺得新主唱Mike DiMeo的音質和Jorn Lande蠻像的。:p
新鼓手Mike Terrana，之前就很有名啊。
