 Finish this statement Sex is natural, sex is good, not everybody does it, but_________________.
"...if they could they might want to give it a shot."
What are your measurements? Your turn-ons? Turn-offs? Your pet peeves? When you were a little Ghoul, what did you want to be when you grew up?
Liquid or solid measurements? My turn ons are moshing, thrashing, and exhuming the dead; turn offs are posers, police, and torch wielding mobs. My pet peeves are
stupid interview questions. When I was a young lad all I wanted to do was stay with the carnival, but I've found my calling in playing the sickest, mosh-inducing splatter-thrash ever.
According to "Soon, They'll Scream," GHOUL was exploited by the diabolical duo at Razorback Records. Do you still thirst for their blood?
Digestor: Of course. These two rip offs have been rubbing our noses (those of us who still have noses) in it since day one and they will taste our wrath. The next time we run into Nocera we will disembowel him and
hang Jill with his innards.
Any idea what first attracted Billy and Jill from Razorback to vacation in Creepsylvania? Is there a burgeoning tourist business in the little burg?
 Digestor: I have a feeling they were lost. No one comes to Creepsylvania on purpose.
Judging by the look on Nocera's face, he gets lost alot.
Have they paid you any royalties for the music they stole?
Digestor: As a matter of fact they have, but they haven't paid us in money. Every week or so we get a case of chutney. What the fuck are we supposed to do with chutney? I
don't even like the stuff, it tastes like boogers. To top it off they always send a note that says "Thanks for the cd, suckers!". Real nice.
Has the relationship between GHOUL and Razorback improved at all to the point where we can hope for another recording, perhaps this time a voluntary one?
Digestor: We have another few albums worth of material that was stolen by Razorback. I assume they'll release them at some point. Probably next January. We have been contacted by a few bands outside the Nocera
sphere of influence who want to do splits and we'll probably doa few this year. We'll see.
Is the other material basically in the same vein/sound as WE CAME FOR THE DEAD? Any new titles you can share with us?
Digestor: Oh, it's pretty much the same moshing insanity as on our demo and debut release. I can share one title but nobody better steal it. I mean you, you little brutal
death metal wretches! The new title is MANIAXE.
What is your idea of the perfect meal?
Ghoul (photo courtesy of TEEN STEAM MAGAZINE)
Digestor: It would start out with some of Fermentor's special brandy made out of rotten tongues. Then comes the salad course. And there goes the salad course. We move on to a delicious soup made of brains and sauteed
pancreas. The main course would be a roasted leg straight from the tomb. It all gets topped off with a black kidney pudding topped with whipped pus. Yummy!
How about the perfect date?
Digestor: Me and the Swamp Hag gettin it on in her shack.
If you could invite any three dead celebrities to a barbecue, who would they be?
Digestor: How about Paul Bostoff, Cliff Burton, and Ace Frehley? And don't try to tell me Ace Frehley isn't dead; have you seen him lately?
Seeing how you live underground, do you obtain most of your music through mailorder?
 Digestor: The Curio Shop Owner gets some stuff for us but we've had some luck scrounging in the garbage
behind the music store in town. Aparently Rigor Mortis isn't a huge band in Creepsylvania. We tried to order from Relapse once but they didn't have one single thing we ordered and they tried to get us to settle
for some Origin or Today is the Day cd or something. No thanks.
About this curio shop owner... it is obvious he knows about GHOUL and where you reside. Are you at all concerned that he might one day lead a mad, torch-bearing mob to your underground lair? Why
does he deserve your trust?
Digestor: He's been nothing but a friend to us and we trust him implicitly. Being an odd little man himself, he has no reason to betray our trust. Him and the Swamp Hag have been some of the only people in recent
memory to be kind to Ghoul and show us the understanding we need. I'm sure they'll someday make delicious corpses.
Do you take off the hoods when relaxing at home?
Digestor: Only when we're alone. The sight of our uncovered faces makes even the most hearty soul want to vomit.
Were the members of GHOUL born horribly deformed or were you disfigured later in life?
 Digestor: Cremator was injured in a kiln explosion, I contracted syphilis at birth, rotting
away most of my features, and Fermentor...well honestly I think he just likes to wear bags on his head. He's really quite handsome.
Who were your parents and where are they now?
Digestor: We're all orphans, although Cremator does have a picture of Sonny Bono framed by his pile of straw. I guess he thinks that's his dad. I don't have the heart to
tell him Sonny Bono died with a faceful of pine needles and bark.
How old are the members of GHOUL?
Digestor: It's rude to ask a Ghoul his age.
I am going to show you a series of photos. Please let me know what comes to mind when you see each one.
Digestor: Ok, will do.
Digestor: Puppy.
Digestor: Kittie.
Digestor: Train.
Digestor: Flower.
Digestor: Billy Nocera and Jill Girardi being strangled with barbed wire and roasted over a pit of white hot coals then dismembered and eaten while we laugh and laugh and laugh.
As word of GHOUL's sick brand of music spreads and is embraced by the underground legions, do you have any concern that fans might go on a pilgrimage to Creepsylvania to pay homage and invade your underground lair?
Digestor: Oh, we're not scared. Come on in, fatties. We'd love to have you for dinner, muhahahahahaha!!
If you were forced to relocate, where would you go? Boca Raton? The Bahamas?
Digestor: How about Peoria? I hear it's lovely this time of year.
