THIS INTERVIEW WAS MADE IN 2000 FOR THE 4TH ISSUE

The upcoming releases to come on Entartete label run by General Lina from DEUTSCH NEPAL & FROZEN FACES, are Janitor CD, Frozen Faces CD [EM07] & "A. Hitlerville" EP, Psychaliche Jugend EP; Cyclotimia 10" (a Russian project) & a CD from Bocksholm [EM08] (a project with Peter Andersson from Raison d’être "But not sounding like what we use to do in others projects I think" says Lina. He adds "The idea is to explain the causes why we became what we are today through an assault on our old home-town Boxholm…We hate it!"

What has motivated you to form Frozen Faces?

F.F. appeared as my equipment broke down and I was forced to do the music in an a more primitive way… In the end the sound was so alien from the sound of Deutsch Nepal, that I decided to call the project something else… As a matter of fact there were some releases that should have been F.F releases but came out like D. Nepal, like the "Environment" EP on Ant-Zen and others… I mean as you thinking of it in this day. Also there are other differences Deutsch Nepal might come from my brain and Frozen Faces more from my Heart & Gender.

How do you usually compose?

I don’t know!! It’s more like you have a premonition about something is on it’s way out… You bring box with hundreds of collected Kz of sounds, speeches… working for some days with different treatments and suddenly you have a track… Technically I work a lot with samplers, tapes, voices… but the composition work are more like automatic or may be psychologic (what ever that is). My influences are from everything that surrounds me… at this moment I’m in a very depressive and violent period of my life… It will be interesting to se how that will influence the sound of my projects in the future…

What about your future plans?

I wish I knew myself, hahaha… But there are some things that at least are 90% sure (See the upper lines). There will also be a Deutsch Nepal release on Cold Meat Industry. If I only get my fist out off my ass & record the material. Maybe I go to Vienna to finish some material with Albin Julius… When I get in balance and there are other still abstract plans. But At the moment I just concentrate on surviving. Death is a love so hard to resist…

The release news given by Lina have been "Thurnemans: Wilhelm Format: 7"Label: Entartete Musikk Harsh rythmic high-energy industral music from this eminent duo. Continuing their homage to the Killer-Yogy and leader of the Sala-ligan Sigvard Thurneman. $5. Njurmännen was the project that Lina B. Doll worked with for almost 10 years before starting with the later Deutsch Nepal. Njurmännen has re-issue a 12" Lp Format, MiniLP on label Konduktör Rek. This Mini-Lp was released in 1986 and could be an interesting document for the most committed fans. $9,50."

REVIEWS

Check the first review in the issue 3 of [EM01] FROZEN FACES excellent debut LP "Broken sounds of a dying culture" LIM500.

FROZEN FACES They who became enemies t their ancestors TAPE [EM02] LIM100
After their excellent LP, this tape is a MUST! of 10 tracks coming in an amazing metal box packaging with many inserts. This album is ranging from excellent power electronics a la G.O. like on opener, to melodic track with vocals a la old Death In June. Deutsch Nepal usual great sound is sometimes appearing, or cold atmospheric soundscapes. Whether you receive a hammering pulsation of violence, whether you feel re-inforced by an epic electro-folk anthem. Mechanical metal resonance loop creates hypnotic low rhythm in the pure power electronics way. You have to find this one!

THURNEMANS Punishment as reward EP [EM03] LIM300

This is a good Swedish newcomer in the power electronics. Their actions are dedicated to the killer Sigvard Thurneman. The Ep is coming in great black and white poster sleeve. A promising debut, which offers rhythms harsh electronics with, distorted vocals.

JANITOR Richie LP [EM04] LIM800

Collaboration LP between Lina (Deutsch Nepal) and Benny (Morthond/Hazard). 96-99 material made this 4 tracks Lp which is a tribute to "Poison" movie by Todd Haynes. Music is dark atmospheric with voice samples, sometimes melodic and ambient, or Dark rhythm electronics in the vein of Deutsch Nepal. The excellent 3rd track is a noisy catchy loop with dense and powerful pulses. The whole is great combination of both artists world and sound.

FROZEN FACES Religion of Hate EP [EM05] LIM500

This is the most recent release for this very good side-project of Lina. 2 tracks: "Religion of Hate" which is a slow oppressing track with reverbed great vocals changing to strong power electronics . "Over the barricades" which is a construction of percussion beats is a bit deceiving as too easy listening to me.
