1.Can you give us an update on what has been going on with the band since the recording and release of the new ep?
We are at the studio wrapping up the up coming Ep, consist of 2 new tracks, a continuation of the previous 2 Eps story.
2.Recently you have released an ep, musically how does it differ from your previous release?
Let’s say all of these Eps are part of an album, same concept when it comes to lyrics and story and same when it comes to music direction and atmosphere.
3.What are some of the lyrical topics and subjects the band has explored on both of the releases?
So far we have released 2 Eps, both of them are talking about the same story, without getting into much details (we prefer living it to the audience to discover), the story is happening somewhere in the past, unknown period of time but with no doubt it’s no less than 300 to 400 years go, it’s about a mysterious beast, children and wailing mothers! Connect the dots lol
4.Can you tell us a little bit more about the artwork that is presented on the ep cover?
It’s symbolized the beast’s the cruelty of him/her taking over the village (where most of the story happenes)
5.Currently there are only 2 members in the band, are you open to expanding the line up or do you prefer to remain a duo?
For now we have no intention to expand it.
6.The ep was released on 'Wall Of Sound: Dark Mode', can you tell us a little bit more about this label?
Dark Mode is a new dedicated Metal/rock record label that launched back in March 2021, awesome people In there, they love metal music and been part of the metal scene since the late 90’s, their intention is revive the metal scene in Saudi Arabia and middle east in general.
7.The band is from Saudi Arabia a country that is known for being a dangerous place for a metal or any type of extreme music band, do you manage to keep a low profile in your home country and also avoid the authorities?
That was 10 years back! Now Saudi Arabia is becoming the land of music in the region , we have hosted a lot of music festivals and events, things are rapidly changing, we are no more not allowed to perform publicly, all music genres are more than welcome to perform.
8.On a worldwide level how has the reaction been to your music by fans of underground metal, noise and experimental?
Pretty positive and unexpected! We have loved all the reactions that we have received.
9.What is going on with 'Grieving Age' these days?
Finalizing a new EP with 3 new songs, to be released around March/April 2022.
10.When can we expect a full length and also where do you see the band heading into musically during the future?
For Deathnoisefrequency, yes, there is an intention to release a full album in 2023, we just want to finish the Eps phase which gonna be like 5 Eps then we gonna work on a new album with new concept but definitely keeping the noise, experimental doom and creepiness.
11.What are some of the bands or musical styles that have had an influence on your music and also what are you listening to nowadays?
