Interview with Eastern suburbs-based hardcore/metal band No Dome
INTERVIEWER: No Dome… what kind of fucking name is that?
BRENDON: The best fucking name ever. Nah.
AARON: The New Justice Team was taken so…
BRENDON: It all started when we were 17, and we used to sneak into out local club and play the derby match IV simulated horse racing machine.
INTERVIEWER: And now they don’t have it anymore?
BRENDON: Yeah, and we were pretty pissed off about it.
INTERVIEWER: So you formed a band to let the world know of your plight?
BRENDON: In a way, we also formed it to talk a lot of shit.
INTERVIEWER: So what style is it? I just read that you guys are Norwegian Black Metal.
AARON: That’s it.
BRENDON: From Norway.
AARON: True Norwegian Black Metal… from Norway.
INTERVIEWER: Who plays what?
AARON: We haven’t gotten that far into it yet.
BRENDON: Frankom plays all instruments.
INTERVIEWER: I don’t know what that means. What’s Frankom?
BRENDON: These guys we know, the Frankom brothers.
INTERVIEWER: They’re your backing band?
AARON: Mentors/Producers.
INTERVIEWER: Hahahaha.
BRENDON: We’re too busy talking shit and writing rhymes.
INTERVIEWER: What are your influences?
AARON: Dio.
BRENDON: Burzum.
AARON: Only the first 2 LPs though.
BRENDON: The entire Burzum back catalogue is alright actually.
AARON: Old Kid Rock.
BRENDON: S.O.D.
AARON: Nah fuck those guys.
INTERVIEWER: Do you plan to ever play anywhere? For instance, if someone read this now and wanted you to play their show what should they do?
BRENDON: Call a new song of theirs a No Dome cover when they play…
AARON: We have played many shows in the 221.
BRENDON: …Kids won’t know the difference.
INTERVIEWER: Should they?
BRENDON: Probably, they are pretty stupid though.
AARON: Only if they are true.
INTERVIEWER: Where do you guys stand on giving ‘the kids’ all-ages shows to go to?
AARON: I’m all for the over-18s. That way I can make a few dollars selling dodgy IDs to the little cunts.
INTERVIEWER: I heard your band was actually named after a Megadrive game?
AARON: Haha.
BRENDON: Yeah we used to be called Altered Beast. Then we found there was another band in Sydney called that.
INTERVIEWER: So do you guys practice much?
AARON: About 3 times a year.
BRENDON: 3 times a year.
INTERVIEWER: And there’s three of you? Brendon, Superfly Jimmy Snuka (AARON) and Marso?
AARON: At the moment, yes.
INTERVIEWER: At the moment?
BRENDON: Well one of the Frankom boys is a session drummer for our ever so rare ‘jams’.
INTERVIEWER: Okay I better wrap this up. Should we expect a demo or something from you guys anytime soon?
AARON: It’s in the works.
BRENDON: Well, the 4 Days In Panania EP is in the works.
AARON: Should be out in the next couple of months, then the launch will be at Club Troppo on the Central Coast.
BRENDON: Where it won’t actually be played, we just wanna go there and look at sluts and call it a launch.
INTERVIEWER: Hahahaha.
AARON: Only in the foyer though, I aint paying $11 to get in.
BRENDON: True, I aint paying 10 bucks to go upstairs and look at the same girls.
INTERVIEWER: Okay, so do you guys have an email address or a website or something? Or would you rather people didn’t contact you?
BRENDON: nodomeband@hotmail.com, and nodomeformarso@hotmail.com
AARON: And noelwins@hotmail.com
BRENDON: It’s all relevant you see Luke.
AARON: But I wouldn’t write to any of them as you must probably won’t get a reply.
BRENDON: I check them every now and then.
AARON: It’s hard work sorting through all of our fan mail.
INTERVIEWER: Cool, thanks guys, anything else you want to say to ‘the kids’?
BRENDON: Get fucked you little cunts.
AARON: Yeah I want to send a big shout out to Dane, Jai and Noel. And mad props go out to Nugget for showing us love in the Shire. Stay true to the dome.
