A12:How challenge is doing evolving melodies?
Anton Mityugin:Our composer is doing his job great. He has a talent for doing great melodies for our songs.
A13:What´s the lyrical theme for this Ep?
Existenter:We have all heard about the Pyramid of Human Values. For almost all people on the planet, the basic values are the same and are accepted by each of us.We all want to have a roof over our heads, live safely and beautifully, do our favorite work, be recognized by society, develop physically and spiritually.But as you all noticed, with the advent of the modern era of high technology, the Pyramid of values was distorted. I would say more, she actually turned over. An entire generation lives a life imposed by other authorities, literally living online.Basic values are of less interest to many than the desire to defeat an opponent in the battles of couch troops.As we all know, time is a non-renewable resource. But how easily a modern person wastes his time in emptiness.We even came up with Fast Food to spend less time preparing healthy food to free up more time for what?It's clear what. No need to explain. Everyone understands that.Each of us has a smartphone where we can see the exact amount of time spent on work and entertainment on the Internet.Robots and programs have long been people's helpers.But people have also changed.The system and way of life has changed.
A14:The band feel differences between Planet In The Universe and now in Inverted Pyramid Trilogy?
Existenter:This is huge differences between two albums. We have new sound, new approach in songwriting and other concept. When The Planet in The Universe was the album that contains songs about worldwide problematic then EP has other different idea.
A15:What´s band opinion about modern metal?
Existenter:We love modenr metal bands such as Soen, Vola, Haken, Karnivool, Gojira, Spiritbox, Architect, SetYØURSAILS.Our third album, we want to make more modern
A16:Based on the songs of frist album,this ep and your second album and your own opinion,is it better to think the human being as agony than an animal for health?
Existenter:We think the human being has happy future and people are not animals. All our songs bring hope to human being for that future.
Ask yourself simple questions:
When was the last time you admired the summer dew on the grass in the rays of the rising sun?When did you just spend time with your family outside of social networks, namely in live communication?Do you remember what your parents look like?
That is, in fact, behind the noise of modern technology, we often lose ourselves and destroy our souls.We always stand for progress and modern technologies. It's very cool and comfortable. It is important to keep a balance in everything.These are the philosophical thoughts that filled us when creating this Trilogy.
