Darkfaery Exclusive: Rough Hausen Interview

by TristaLou

So where was I the night of January 29th? I was at the Rough Hausen show in Tulsa at the Eclipse!!! I got to interview some members of the band and see a kick ass show as well. So grace your eye’s with one of the strangest and weirdest interviews I have ever done. I myself can not even figure out what was their true answers to my questions so I will let you the reader decide……

Denni- Listen I can do this interview in 30 seconds, ok. Don’t believe a word that any of us say, we will say anything for alcohol, we will do anything for alcohol, and uh… did I miss anything??

Jeff- You described us as a whore, quite aptly as a whore so ya, your all right.

Denni- Ya

Jeff- That’s Denni by the way. EG. He has done work on every Rough Hausen since Agony of the Beat. He’s done something. He’s either written songs with me, done production.

Trista- So you have been involved for quite some time.

Denni- Ya I guess so. Like 30, 40 years, I think.

Jeff- Ya he knew my mom really well.

Denni- Ya, ya, well everybody does.

Trista- Wow I don’t know if that is a good thing or a bad thing.

Denni- Oh well it’s a good thing. (as he proceeds to make the sounds of a bed moving)

Trista- How’s the tour going?

Jeff- Lots of driving, Lots of Stupidity. Good, Bad, Ugly, Great.

Denni- We’re writing down quotes.Our favorite quote for every state.

Jeff- Ya.

Denni- Tell me you wouldn’t like to see this on a t-shirt? This is Texas.

Jeff- “Dude, quit fucking my pumpkin.”

Denni- Can you ever imagine a situation in your life that you would have to say that phrase?

Jeff- There’s a long story to it, and it is awesome.

TristaLou- I’m thinking a horror house.

Denni- No, no, no.

Jeff- Noooo….It was a show. But every state we’ve got a quote like that, where someone has said or done something so outrageously stupid that I had to write it down. But think of the shirt..”Dude, quit fucking my pumpkin.”

Denni- and then Rough Hausen 2011 US Tour.

TristaLou- That would be an interesting shirt. I’d get it for my husband. But I don’t think I’d wear it myself. I tend to not cuss so much.

Jeff- But would you stand beside him when he was wearing it?

TristaLou- Okay maybe not.

Jeff- Well that part (of the tour) has been fun. Collecting the quotes.

Denni-  Oh ya. No we have had a lot of fun. For real.99% of the people that we have ran into have been really cool. Midwestern people are laid back and nice. In most cases.

Jeff- We’ve had two outrageous assholes out of the hundred and twenty we have met. That’s a pretty good ratio.

Denni- Ya. If it was the East Coast it would be different. Everybody is an asshole on the East Coast.

Jeff- Your from the East Coast.

Denni- Shh

Jeff- LA wasn’t that much fun.

TristaLou- Why, what happened there?

Jeff- No great details just cause that’s not nice. But LA was not much fun.

TristaLou- But we like dirt.

Jeff- I like dirt too, but I just don’t like to be the purveyor of dirt. I like to be the consumer of dirt.

TristaLou- Oh okay.

Denni- We were all graduates of Emily Post. We know our etiquette. There hasn’t been a truck stop that we have stopped in that we didn’t say Please or Thank You. We go to church on Sundays.

TristaLou– You do not.

Denni- As a matter of fact we went to a chapel right above he men’s room at one stop.

Jeff- And the quote for that was…. Naw I’m not going to.

Denni- oh ya it’s a little dirty. What’s the age group of your readers here?

TristaLou- Um it actually ranges quite a bit.

Denni- Here is proof, absolute proof (that we have been to the chapel above the men’s room). ( He then shows me a picture of Jeff standing in front of a picture of Jesus in the chapel. You can find this picture on the facebook in their tagged photos)

Jeff- The waitress was awesome there.Every single person in that restaurant above 40 was looking at us with seriously disapproving eyes, but the waitress was awesome. I sat on their Jesus and I did my little (makes a clicking noise with his tongue), they didn’t like that. Apparently they didn’t have a sense of humor.

Denni- That was the place with the nastiest bathrooms. You walk into the men’s and women’s bathroom and awaiting you is
some beautiful graffiti.

Jeff- Modern day poetry.

Denni- Which we have been collecting as well.

TristaLou- So what has been your favorite part of the tour besides collecting the quotes?

Jeff- Scottsdale, Arizona we played a show and the first words out of my mouth the audience stood up and moved back twenty feet.

Denni- No, You got to back up. We didn’t play a show. We crashed an open mic night. We bombed the open mic night. We walked in there. Hey how you doin?

Jeff- All smiles. Cute little Asian bass player.

Denni- We wait our turn.

Jeff- The first fucken words out of my mouth they stood up and moved back.

Denni- Tables go back (makes the sound of tables being moved back). It was great.

TristaLou- So what were the first words?

Jeff- I’ve got a black skin suit.

Denni- See nothing offensive.

Jeff- But I believe it was the volume of the first words out of my mouth.

Denni- And the vocal effects..

Jeff- But they were really polite afterwards. They were “gah that was good”.

Denni- See the act before us was a very classy traditional blues bassed guitar duo. You know Eric Clapton meets, Jeff Beck, meets Jimi Hendrex.. So everyone was doing their own free bird thing and all of that.

Jeff- And then I stepped up and that was funny. I enjoyed that.

TristaLou- I bet you did. So what are some of your other stops for the tour?

Jeff- We have another one in Colorado and one in Utah, and two in California, and then we are done. this is sorta the tail end of the tour.
We are going home soon. It’s been almost a month for me. So I am ready to go home. I’m ready to go home and see my wife and kiss my dogs.

Denni- In that order.

Jeff- Well my dogs are pretty hot.

Denni- Ya I know. I’ve seen em dude.

TristaLou- What made you contact Darkfaery for this interview?

Jeff- It was actually facebook, me starting to post about the tour and then someone said if you are going near this place you need to contact these people, and I believe the exact words they said was, “These people are fucking cool”.

TristaLou- I don’t believe that.

Denni- Really?

TristaLou- No, but that is really cool.

Jeff- So I sent out the email and the email I got back was concise and professional and they knew the scene, and I had to follow up on that.

Denni- Now are you sure you didn’t find that on a truck stop lavatory?

Jeff- Pretty Sure.

TristaLou- So what are some other bands that you would like to tour with?

Jeff- NSYNC, Backstreet, I’d really like to do some work with Bieber.

Denni- We’re shooten for the stars here. I mean you gotta think big, you gotta hope.

Jeff- What’s that girl that sang that song that I like so much?

Denni- Whitney Houston?

Jeff- Ya that one.

Jeff- Thrill Kill, I think would be great to tour with. KMFDM would be amazing. Uncle Al would be awesome.

Denni- Ya Uncle Al would be awesome.

Jeff– Kenny and Download would be an awesome tour.

Denni- Yes that would be cool. What about Ogre?

Jeff- Fuck ya! Of course I’d like to tour with Kevin. I would happily roll around in his bloody mess.

Denni- We saw that Kenny Rogers was touring again. We’d like to open for Kenny. It’s the Face Lift Tour.

Jeff- Kenny Fucken Rogers, Mr. Crazy Face Plastic Surgery. It’s a freak show.

Denni- (singing) “You got to know when to fold’em”

Jeff– Ah Dude…

After a little more banter the opening band was starting (or so we thought) so we ended the interview there. So there ya go. I hope that you all enjoy reading this very random interview. Oh and just for the record. The picture taken during this interview that is on facebook I am not disgusted… I was just appalled at the current topic of Asian tattoos and how they are so wrong usually. Apparently you can get something you think says flowers and actually it could say whore. I would have to say this was the most entertaining interview by far, but not good for me since I am such a gullible person and fall for anything, but thanks to the band anyways for the interview, and I advise anyone to go see the band preform when they come to your town. You will not be disappointed.

The Application of Colors and Psychological Suspense in Horror Films and Fictions

July 20, 2010 | Author

The Application of Colors and Psychological Suspense in Horror Films and Fictions
By Allen Keneth

The application of color is another way adopted by film makers to reach the goal of films. The most impressive one is the emergence of the red color in the air in the film “The Shining”. That scene is the insane hero is chasing his son to kill him. The red penetrates the door and fill the air gradually. It looks like the process of the blood dissolve in water. I can even smell the blood. This scene in the novel is described by a sentence “And the red death held sway over all”. We have to admit the strong visual stimulus in film makes the story more nervous and terrifying. Film proves its charm again.

Since the publication of “Carrie”, public began to notice Stephen King and then his works have become popular. His status in the world of horror fiction is difficult to shake:

“Stephen King’s writing is securely rooted in the great American tradition that glorifies spirit-of-place and the abiding power of narrative. He crafts stylish, mind-bending page-turners that contain profound moral truths-some beautiful, some harrowing-about our inner lives. This Award commemorates Mr. King’s well-earned place of distinction in the wide world of readers and book lovers of all ages.”

In 2003, King was honored by the National Book Awards with a lifetime achievement award. And the application of psychological suspense in his works is well performed. It is skillful to grasp the degree of psychological suspense to realize its greatest effect. When, how and what degree to use psychological suspense needs mature consideration. King is dedicated to giving his readers a luxuriant experience the basic pleasure of getting lost in a book.

In recent years, many terrified and surprised novels spring up to the book market and surprised films also enjoy an increasing number. And most of them use psychological suspense to attract people to stick on them till they turn to the last page. Suspense can be widely applied. Now we can find it in some TV programs especially in exploratory programs.

The effect of suspense stems from the curiosity of human. As human never lose their appetite to find what is next, our species can have progress continuously. We are willing to explore the unknown things because of curiosity. It is useful to apply the psychological suspense in novels and films after learning mentality of people. The wide application of psychological suspense implies that human pays more attention on their minds and knows more about themselves.

Horror Films Through the Ages

July 12, 2010 | Author

Horror Films Through the Ages By Peter Cennamo Horror movies have characters like blood-sucking vampires, psychos, scary ghosts, deadly werewolves and man-eating zombies, women with long hair and scarred faces who give you the chills! The best time to watch these movies is late night, all alone (or with a friend, if you get very scared of the horror films) with all the lights off. Given below, are some of the best horror movies of all time according to my preferences. Here is a list of some of the best horror movies ever made which are a must see for everybody. However, horror films are not all movies for the entire family, so check the rating of the movie before you watch it, especially if you intend to do so with your kids. Psycho (1960) – This is a classic horror film, and among the top 10 horror movies. This film is made by the famous Alfred Hitchcock and was nominated for 4 Oscars. The movie is based on Robert Bloch’s novel, is about Marion Crane (Janet Leigh), who checks into a motel after stealing a big sum of money from her employer. The Silence of the Lambs (1991) – This amazing masterpiece is based on a book by Thomas Harris and is about Dr. Hannibal Lecter played by Anthony Hopkins and a young FBI cadet played by Jodie Foster who are trying to find a serial killer. The Ring (2002) – Ring is a very scary horror film without any of the typical elements of a horror film. This film is about a mysterious videotape, which causes the death of anybody who watches it within seven days. Child’s Play (1998) – This is the first movie of the Chucky series, with a scary but an unique concept of a serial killer trapped inside a puppet. The movie has many scary and shocking scenes, which will make you jump in your seat. If you like Child’s Play, then you can also watch other movies of the series. The Sixth Sense (1999) – This is so far the best film created by M. Night Shyamalan, which stars Bruce Willis and Haley Joel Osment. This movie is about a boy (Haley) who can see dead people, and is getting treatment from a child psychologist (Bruce Willis). Les Diaboliques (1995) – This black and white film directed by Henri-Georges Clouzot, is about the wife of a cruel headmaster and his mistress, who conspire to kill him. But, after they murder him, the body disappears and strange and scary events begin to unfold. Grindhouse (2007) – These are two feature films directed by Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez. This double bill of thrillers, Death Proof and Planet Terror created by the two directors recall an all time favorite genre – exploitation films. Watch the film to know more. Haxan (1992) – This bizarre but unique film, is a documentary portraying the history of witchcraft from illustrated incidents to real life events. A must watch for fans of this movie genre. Alien (1979) – This sci-fi, horror film is known to everybody, and there have been many films on this character. When a crew of mining ship investigating a suspected SOS land on a distant planet, they discover some strange creatures. Rosemary’s Baby (1968) – This classic Oscar winner horror film is about a young couple who move into a new apartment. They realize that they are surrounded by peculiar neighbors. The couple become concerned about the safety of their unborn child, as the wife becomes mysteriously pregnant. Carrie (1976) – This scary movie is based on a equally scary novel by Stephen King, is about a quiet and weird girl called Carrie who has telekinetic powers. The Shinning (1980) – Based on a novel by Stephen King and directed by Stanley Kubrick, this movie is a masterpiece among horror films. A man, his wife and son are staying in an isolated hotel, where their son starts see to see disturbing scenes from the past due to his telepathic ability. Faust – Eine Deutsche Volkssage (1926) – This is a classic film in the horror, drama and fantasy genre. The movie is about God and Satan who war over Earth and to settle things down, wager on the soul of Faust, an alchemist. Constantine (2005) – This movie is based on the comic book series called ‘Hellblazer’, is among those horror films which have great visual effects. Starring Keanu Reeves as John Constantine, this movie is about Constantine who has been to hell and back. A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) – This film is among the best scary movies of all time, and is about the famous horror character Freddy, who killed many children with his razor blades fingers. Freddy is later on burned alive by some people in a boiler room. After many years, he starts tormenting the children of the people who killed him. The Blair Witch Project (1999) – This is a very unique film among horror films without any typical elements of the horror film genre. 3 student film-makers mysteriously disappear into the woods. This film is about the footage which was found a year later after their death. Werckmeister Harmoniak (2000) – This world-wide acclaimed film took over 4 years to be created, and suffered many funding hassles and changes in crew, but the output came out to be brilliant. The movie takes place in a small town on the Hungarian Plain, where the temperature is below zero degree and is accompanied by frost, strangers appearing, and other chaotic incidents happening. To learn more about scary films go through, list of scary movies. I am sure you must have seen many of the movies from the best horror movies list above but I am also pretty sure that you must not have seen the above listed foreign language horror films. So, rent the unwatched films, but a little advice – do not watch them all together, as the elements in horror films have a long lasting impression. Have a happy-scary experience watching these films! http://www.petercennamo2.com

END: the DJ’s upcoming album ‘Endtrovert’

April 28, 2010 | Author

Pre-Orders are now up for END: the DJ’s upcoming album ‘Endtrovert’ on Shinto Records May 15

END: the DJ’s upcoming ‘Endtrovert’ features tracks by Centhron, Uberbyte, C-Lekktor, Angels On Acid, Stahlnebel & Black Selket and many more, 14 in total.  The album will be released on Shinto Records [U.S.] on May 15 in both mixed (CD format only) and a digital, un-mixed version will be available on iTunes, Rhapsody, Emusic and other digital distributors. 
“The album was originally to be released on Crunch Pod Music”, End says “but since going all digital, both the label and I agreed that I needed to find a label that would still be able to release a DJ mix album on CD; as consumers on average purchase their music with select tracks at a time, it goes against the very concept of a continuous mix album.  Fortunately, Shinto was there!”
Pre-Orders can now be made thru May 14 on the upcoming album for only $9.99 with a bonus Shinto Records compilation CD, choice of ‘Sin-Tech’ or ‘Sin-Faktory’, on Shinto Records website at http://www.shintorecords.com
An ‘Endtrovert’ album tour will begin this Summer; End will also be a featured DJ and stage member of Komor Kommando live at both the Kinetik Festival in Montreal (Canada) and the Triton Festival in New York (United States).
