Cunt Cuntly Interview

Joe DeSalvo from Dracut Massachusetts band Cunt Cuntly, and Scribe of Existance sat down and let me ask him questions for a bit!

Joe and I also plan on having a Skype interview sometime very soon which will be posted on here for you all to see!






What is your main goal right now?
Scribe of Existence. For anyone reading this SOE is a project me, my friend Dave, and Luke and Jake of Acrania are working on. Im soooo excited to show everyone what we got. The songs are more progressive, and are very influenced by Born of Osiris and Veil of Maya. But have that Deathcore kick also. With Luke on Vocals and Jake on drums it should be super killer!

What is your greatest accomplishment so far, and how would you be able to top that?
Mayhem fest 2012 probably. My old band won a battle of the bands run by Sumerian Records and got a spot to play Mayhem in 2012. We played right before Whitechapel and Upon A Burning Body. Being there before doors with all the bands just walking around was a new experience and very cool. I could top that in many ways, hopefully, Im hoping to play shows as CC soon like I said so lets see what happens in the future.

So you sit down to record, and you somehow manage to go to youtube or reddit or whatever, what are you watching or reading while procrastinating?
I frequent r/space and r/morbidreality whenever I'm on reddit. As far as Youtube goes it can be anything haha, I love watching shitty music videos from bands I don't like. There is a bunch of good documentaries on Youtube also.

What is your most memorable moment on stage or at one of your shows?
I've puked off the side of a stage before from being nervous in the early days when I started playing shows in my old band. That or once our keyboardists gear wasn't working, then someone came up to us after the show and told us how much he loved the keyboard elements in the songs.. I'm 95% sure he was serious.

What was the best show you have played so far?
Mayhem fest 2012 without a doubt. After that probably this show we played with All that Remains and Emmure. If you got the chance to go back in time and play ANY show, festival, or event, ever, what would it be? ANY show would be Wacken 2009 or 2011. But that's pretty unrealistic, I love shows like that and I want to go to a festival overseas next year. North America is cool and all but Europe has all the sick stuff. Other than that I wanted to try and open for Born of Osiris in 2011 with Veil of Maya, Carnifex, Structures, and Betraying the Martyrs at a local venue we frequented.

Describe the weirdest person you have met.
Other than the keyboard guy, probably ********

If you could change one thing about the music scene, what would it be and how would someone do it?
People need to keep the negativity to themselves! Its fine if you dislike a band but posting about it constantly is annoying. No one really cares if you hate Asking Alexandria, we get it. You can share your opinion without being an asshole. No need to make fun of people for their tastes either, its just ridiculous. I'm confident that there is no way possible to stop this from happening, people tend to focus on the negatives sadly.

What is the best and worst day job you've had?
Best day job was probably this car auction I used to work at. I got paid $20 an hour but it was only one day a week. I would never sleep before I would go in so I was always falling asleep on the job. I'm surprised I didn't get fired. Worst was this paint store I used to work in. Hated it. My boss was a jerk. I delivered pizzas in Nashua NH for 9 months and that was crazy. Saw a man get shot, another man hit by a car and nearly die in the road, another man beat his girlfriend for money to buy heroin. Crazy shit.

What's the weirdest thing you've eaten while you're locked away recording?
Bread dipped in Italian dressing, or port wine cheese with croutons. Ill eat anything if im hungry enough.
What foreign country do you want to go to the most?
The UK to hang with my SOE friends (Acrania). Other than that probably France or Australia.

If you could collaborate with any person, living or dead who would it be?
For newer bands without a doubt Born of Osiris or Thy Art Is Murder. People have compared some of my songs to them a few times so working with them would be a miracle. Older bands probably Slayer. I LOVE thrash metal and writing some fast blistering riffs with Kerry or Jeff (:/ rip) would be a dream come true. But that'll never happen haha.
