Maximum Carnage Q&A

Name of band:
Maximum Carnage.

Who is in your band?
Gavin Grobler, Kyle Alers, Wouter Botha and Dale McHardy.

Where are you from?
Pretoria, South Africa.

How would you describe yourselves and your music?
We are chilled out dudes who love to express ourselves creatively through death metal and horror-themed music.

Who are your main influences musically?
Everything influences us, from radio jingles to brutal death mash-ups, the world around us is ultimately the biggest influence as we are a result of our surroundings. 
Bands like Gojira, Exodus and Cannibal Corpse are primarily at the top of our playlists though....

What do you hope to achieve in music?
We hope to write inspirational music that we, and everyone, can enjoy. We indulge in the creativity that pushes us all as musicians every day, writing, recording and performing.

What has been the highlight of your career so far, and why?
There have been so many high points in this year alone. One of them was definitely performing at 5am for a fully packed, booze driven crowd in Botswana, those metal cowboys showed us the spirit of metal in the best way we could ever experience.

And what’s the moment you want to forget?
We do run out of fuel on occasion on tour. But no worries, a good walk never hurt anyone.

If you had to pick just one of your songs to represent your music, what would it be and why?
Butchering the Mainstream, because fuck The Man!

Where can we listen to it?
The songs are available for free download.



Where can we find out more about your music?

Anything else you’d like to say about your music that I forgot to ask?
Let the music speak for itself! Go listen!
