MAX: What’s happened with ex-members of Napalm Death which played on Hatred Surge demo back in 1984?
Barney: On the what? On the which? Oh, God! Well Nick Bullen went to Scorn and Godflesh, and Rat the drummer, I think he’s in mental institution, seriously he has some serious mental problems.
MAX: What is your connection with ex-members?
Barney: Just friends, very close friends. I’m friend to all except one.
MAX: And with Lee Dorian and Bill Steer?
Barney: I’m fine with them.
MAX: Could You tell me where is Bill Steer now? After he left Carcass I haven’t heard anything about him.
Barney: Yes, indeed, you are quite right. He is probably at home as we speak actually.
MAX: What is he doing now?
Barney: I just heard a rumor that he has a regular HM band, not even distorted guitars, UFO type of music. Mike Amott is back to Sweden and he has found Spiritual Beggars and he played for my friends Deranged guest solos, but he’s doing some weird music now.
  He formed Carnage back together again, that’s what I’ve heard.
MAX: What is your opinion of ex-producers? I don’t know Colin Richardson, Pete Coleman, Scot Burns, Paul Johnston, who is the best on your point of view best for work?
Barney: Colin is probably the one closest to the Napalm thing because he worked more times with us, and that isn’t insult to others. He’s not better producer of others. Although each of those producers are good, Scot Burns is a great producer, he have a particular sound and is also a great person, very nice person. Pete is good friend as well, and Paul once again is a good friend and he worked with us in a short note. I’m not gonna say one over another they are all good friends.
MAX: I know they are all good producers but I just wanted to know who is the bet to work with?
Barney: Colin is maybe one that is closest to Napalm.
MAX: Could you tell me something about Peel Sessions?
Barney: All that we did basically is, go in 8th hours and you record live 10 min of music, one take and then you go, that’s all. No studios, no anything. We have three peel sessions till now and all they are from different periods.
MAX: Are there be another Peel sessions?
Barney: It depends if Peel wants it.
MAX: Tell me something about your major influences and what bands do you like to listen when you were in the “old days”?
  My personally influences are Motorhead, Discharge and a lots of generally American HC and DM and European DM and HC. Celtic Frost for example, a lot of different bands.
MAX: How pass your gig in Zagreb-Croatia?
  It was very good actually it ‘s interesting nations to mention cause we thought it would might be some touchy subjects you understand, but I guess music rises above stupid war.
MAX: How many people were on the show, and on a tour how many people get on concerts?
  We had approximately 700 last night, average on the tour we have 600-500, average concerts.
MAX: First clip from “Diatribes”, Grid Killing is a great song, could we expect new single or something?
  Nothing. We’re not a single band, you know what I mean we did clip and single with some tracks on a B-side, Usually some tracks that are not on the album. And that’s it we’re not kind of band that put out singles. I think that Napalm, I don’t want to play a lot of singles, it’s pointless.
MAX: Grid Killing is also a great clip, where was filmed?
 In a old warehouse in London with some extras and stuff like that.
MAX: Do you have some new cover songs?
  No cover songs.MAX and BARNEY
MAX: Last live video was Harmony Corruption back in 1990, do you have some new live material for a new home video?
Barney: No, we got no time and Harmony Corruption was professionally filmed and when it was released in nineties we don’t really thought about it. We are not video like type of band, Harmony Corruption back then was the great and there is no need for another one.

Barney: At The Gates album, old Swedish band called Mob 47 just release their album on CD from 10 years ago and it’s good, al kind of stuff.

MAX: Is there any new side-projects?

MAX: What’s your relationship with Benediction?
Barney: It’s my old band and friends. No problems at all.
MAX: What do you think about new Cathedral album?
