1 - In "Back To Trouble" you say that is not afraid to fight for their ideals. What exactly do you speak?

I think the worst thing for a personnal development is to forget what we really are.
I mean we're all human beings and everyone of us wishes to be happy in his life.
the problem is that there is no social justice because of our lack of determination to change things around here.
we are constantly hearing news from everywhere which tell us that mankind is hardly able to defend itself against any kind of aggression
and most of the time it's true. But sometimes people get revolted to change their destiny together like recents revolts in Tunisia
Life is a permanent fighting

 

 

2 - How can you describe the current scene in France? What are the differences 10 years ago?

We notice now that the scene has changed especially in Paris, it has nothing to do with the scene I knew in the 90's in Paris.
Today, the scene tends to be a "showcase" for the kids exposing themself. Everyone wants to be seen, known and recognized, and for that some flaunt without complex...
We have no problem with this kind of attitude, everyone does what he wants, but the hardcore is not that ! And we have the responsability to not let it go down.
Necessarily that kind of attitude is developping ego, and ego is one of the enemies of the "spirit of Unity", one of the principal value of Hardcore.
The scene is dead, long live to the scene !

 

3 - As the year 2011 for you? You can quote the best moments for the band this year?

We've not played concerts that much , we were on the underground mode. It has been a year of writting and we've recently recorded our first album so i think the best moments are when we've heard the songs with the arrangements we've created together, we are very proud of what we have done !

 

4 - What is getting ready for 2012?

the LP should go out on march so we are going on tour in france and europe during the month of april. we'll play in our first big metal festival in germany in june. I hope it will help us to find more gigs everywhere in the world to spread the wordz and have good time

4 international bands: Biohazard, E.Town Concrete, Fury Of Five, Skarhead....

family: the roots and the trunk of the tree, an undefined respect
A dream: danforth becoming a famous hardcore band like biohazard, hatebreed or sick of it all and peace on earth
One sentence: we can't tell the truth on TV, becauses everyone watch it ! (from Coluche, a french humorist)

 

6 - What are the components of the literary influences of the band?

we write lyrics we want to scream, I mean that we write about what upsets us, what confuses us, what revolts us and what we are defending

 

7 - musical influences?
there is plenty of influences in our music
trash hardcore death hip hop rock and roll
we all come from different ways and we find ourselves in Danforth

 

8 - There is much talk in America than in France has no restriction on water consumption. Can you tell us how you save water, if this is true, and how people react to it in the country?

 it is true, we can do what we want except when the are alerts in case of dryness during hot summers, it depends only on our own consciousness the rest of the time. as far as i'm concerned i just think about who lack of it to use it in the best way.

 

9 - From 2006 to 2009 you released an album every dwarf, because it had material released in 2010?

in 2010 we have toured with our old releases so a little fatigue installed that's why we have focused on the new songs during 2011

 

10 - In America only a hardcore band live is almost impossible in Europe:

in france it's impossible with a pure hardcore band, with a metal band it's difficult, with a rock band it's little more easier
 we don't do it for the money otherwise we should change our music
is more feasible? Or do you go through the same problems of having to keep a job off the stage?

 

11 - Where you have not played that you want to play?

we want to play everywhere in the world , we have fans on all continents , i hope we could make a south america tour for example
if you know what i mean....

 

12 - Hip hop and hardcore could go hand in hand?

why not ? it only depends on the messages they both spread
rap and hardcore are social testimonies (and the mix of rap lyrics and hardcore music is the most energy mix we like !)

 

13 - Europe plunged into financial crisis, it affected the game?

prices are going up, jobs are less payed, times are difficults due to financial madness
 it's our turn to pay , the equalty by the low

 

14 - Message from the band?

Danforth is coming back with 13 new hits on Crime In Hell album (featuring Danny Diablo and Skarhead, and James Stikman from Fury Of Five/Boxcutter/Full Metal Jacket !), get it and have a good time so we can come to play in your town to get crazy together
