SAMAEL are putting outВ theirВ 9-th studioВ record -В 'Above' (Nuclear Blast/Wizard) in early March.

We decided to talk with them about it, not prior to their concert in Sofia(31.01.09) but just a couple of weeks after, so they have a settled impressions of the Bulgarian metal scene.В 

So here we go - this is frontman Vorph on the telephone

IT HAS BEEN SOMETHING LIKE 2 WEEKS SINCE YOUR FIRST EVER SHOW IN BULGARIA, SO I BELIEVE THE SOUVENIR IS STILL ALIVE AND KICKING?

That was a great show. The first time coming to Bulgaria, to Sofia was a great experience to us. It’s always great to play at a new place. But you know, people were amazing to us. And we’re very thankful for that.

DOES THAT MEAN YOUR SECOND SHOW HERE IS GOING TO BE WORSE?

No. That’s the excitement. You cannot repeat that for a second time. But we are definitely looking forward to a second show.
