Carpathian Forest interview - talking drugs, sports and black metal with Nattefrost
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 лип 2017
- Carpathian Forest is one of the oldest yet also one of the most original black metal bands from Norway. However, they have been on hiatus quite some time and it's not very common to see them play on stage. That's what they did, however, at Steelfest 2017. That's exactly when we managed to interview Nattefrost - the only original member of the band. We talked about music, drugs and black metal. Check it out and comment the video on our Facebook page, / rautametal

Brave of Rauta to ask about the drugs. Some people get real shitty about those types of questions. But Nattefrost seems really open about it. I hope he gets 100% better again. Seems a decent guy.
Yeah, I hope him all the best, too. Was really cool to talk about those topics. Much appreciated on my behalf.
@@RautaMetal You seem to have a very disarming nature. People really seem to be comfortable and at ease with themselves around you.
It was a good interview. Kinda made me a bit anxious to watch. Just like when people interview Necrobutcher...
I still love this interview. Nattefrost is such a unique person. “Just rock and Roll!”
This is a great interview with a legendary and amazing musician. I, nor anyone, has the right to judge him on his past abuses. Much strength and support Nattefrost! Amazing interview Rauta!
pvilches06 Thank you!
👍👍
I couldn't have said it any better. I fucking love Carpathian Forest's music. Great interview as usual Rauta.
Agreed. Natefrost is a legend
Damn fucking right!
Saw Carpathian Forest yesterday and Nattefrost was amazing in stage very professional and with a great attitude with the audience 👍👍👍👍Hail Nattefrost 😈
I think these interviews are very important documentations of people and time, interesting also! Please keep on doing what you are doing!
Thank you - I most def will!
Man, I'm just really sorry for this guy. You can see he's lost and is a victim of abuse. I hope he gets help that he needs.
And I thought you were a nihilist!
@@RautaMetal haha oh well
@@nihilist1280 :)
Nattefrost is the example of DONT DO DRUGS!
Frank Mathiesen layne staley is real example. He died of overdose and was found after 14 days since death
Its not DONT DO, its do in moderation
@Patrick Curtis torrents, safer
Tá só o pó da rabiola
Not much left in the tank. Poor guy
Thank you so much. It's really cool to hear from the artists themselves. Growing up it felt like all I had my imagination or live concert recordings.
The GG Allin of black metal, Still love all the older work.
Carpathian forest is legendary band..thanks for interview
Thanks. My pleasure!
Devastated by drugs.
He drastically aged just in a few years..He looks older than iron maiden drummer now
aytuğ erkan Yeah. Consider that the interviewer and Nattefrost are same age. Drugs make shit happen.
Even older than Iron Maiden's skeleton dude! :O :'D :/ :D
Oh no not the drummer!!! 🤣🤣🤣
A Shn just like how god punishes innocent children with starvation? Fuck your god
A Shn the fuck are you saying?
I think the main problem is he struggles with the English language. No offense to him- I cannot speak any Norwegian.
Yep. His talk is a bit staggering due to not being his native language.
His English is fine, I can understand him. CP are a great band\m/
He's nervous
I just stumbled upon your channel and i'm really enjoying the interviews so far. Very cool stuff.
Thank you very much! Hope you'll enjoy the content in the future too and sucbscribe to the channel.
One of the most interesting interviews ive seen...for a variety of reasons
Thank you!
I love this man I just wish he’d release more material.Carpathian forest are such a unique band in blackmetal,much like vultyr were .I love Nattefrost’s sense of humour and the ethos of the band in general.Make another full album now please nattefrost !!!(another good interview)
Thanks, anb yeah earlier CF was some good Norwegian black metal with some twisted yet good humor.
@@RautaMetal Morbid fascination of death and black shining leather are my favourites.They never sounded like anybody else and I’ve never heard a saxophone played since on a blackmetal track.Love their visuals too there’s not enough shot guns in blackmetal these days.Got 2 of his solo albums too not sure about the puking or nattefrost taking a piss though.
@@satanicboxer562 Yeah, they are rather unique yet still good. Which is not too common thing. I've heard saxophone with other bm bands too, most recently Zemial, but it is indeed a rarity.
The solo albums were IMO quite disappointing. Quite mediocrish IMO.
Nice! Don't see many interviews with Nattefrost, thank you.
Thank you for watching and commenting!
DearlyStars thank fuck,what a looser
Much respect to Nattefrost and Carpathian Forest! Thanks Rauta for the great interview.
My pleasure
Rauta, I am truly happy that your program has progressed so much. Very cool. One Finn to another, you rock, and you provide a quality show for us, and you are real about it - I appreciate it please keep working hard, it shows you already do. ROCK ON!!🔥🇫🇮 A Finn from Chicago, USA
Kiitos! Really nice to hear that. I'm doing my best to progress the channel and keep the content evolving. Kippis!
@@RautaMetal 💪🇫🇮⛵🍺🪓🏹🔥
I think if Nattefrost was allowed to speak his native tongue this interview would of sounded a lot different because he just doesn't have a voluminous English background from which to draw from which I sure is quite different if he was speaking Norwegian. I'm glad he was able to kick the dope habit. Always loved the band and always will.
You're absolutely right. Everybody would be giving way better interviews if we all could talk in our native languages - me included!
I have met him over a beer many times and there's nothing special about him, other than his height (shorter than me) and wacko sense of humour
@@Antarath Some people see a sense of humor as a special thing. Rather have it then not.
I know him private he is a friend of mine i believe many of the comments here about the drug thing are just what people expect i think he is a nice man and being judged out of expectations or what people like to believe ! and that is a shame! maybe a little social anxiety and anxiety for maybe first time meet media not lit on too many substances it is my guess!
Man I've been away from black metal for a bit but got back into it and it was wonderful to listen to the man behind cf talk. Drugs are shit, fun, but shit and it was super nice to hear give give what I thought were 100 percent honest answers. The one about turmoil was spot on . Cheers and hail from canada
Thanks for the comment!
Very good interview , thank you J!
My pleasure!
Ive seen pictures of him in the gram, like when he was younger... wonder how he fell into that abyss. So many questions, like what happened with Nordavind. Great job, hails!
easily my favourite black metal act of all time, so many amazing albums which I'm very proud to own.. And morbid fascination with death was easily one my most listened to albums for many years... However (I'm sorry guys).. This still seems like a case of someone who should know when to stop. So many really.. sad to watch live performances over the past few years, would almost have been better to end the band on a high note (Not the live vocal highs... sorry). An inevitable conclusion to a truly legendary, inspirational man's life, worn out.. not a young man anymore and it shows, the sheer nastiness of C.F caught up with him. Strap up a hammock between those trees nattefrost, shove on some old albums, through a stereo... and chill with a beer. Your legacy is strong, you're allowed to relax a tad now :')
Nattefrost will always be a legend and major influence for me, since his early days of C.Forest and Grimm! I would never judge a man like him, like I would never judge Lemmy for their lifestyles! I know exactly where is coming from and its clear that his influences comes from early hard rock, punk, crust and heavy metal the cover in the C.F. compilation proves that! he's making something out of his art rather then putting an end to it! Fuck you all!!! is another great example no more need to be said I'll end up beeing misundestood! Keep up the great work Rauta your work is one of a kind!
Cheers and thanks for support. Agreed with your words about Nattefrost, too!
for me it's a pleasure just to watch them speak, and the new ep with the turbonegro cover "all my friends are dead" i'm sure it will rock!
Well said.
as a ski jumper I'm honored by his love for it
NEVER STOP THE MADNESS
Good call. Opiates, done correctly and in moderation, are amazing.
"im not so much about norway, or dark... angel, as well" when jerry asked him about similarity to darkthrone's move to rnr sound hahahahha
Aye :D
I like Nattefrost's tattoos. Also lets appreciate the man to do this interview for us rather than judge hes condition in every fucking aspect.
Chris Exactly. At least he has his act together and did a good show later in the evening. At least I liked it.
Me too.. i like old futhark runes. Also like him got couple in my skin.
do an interviuw...as a supposedly legend....wow...big deal
I love that interview.
Thank you!
Good on Nattefrost for kicking heroin! That drug has stolen so many from the world and I’m happy a very talented musician like Nattefrost is so passionately focused on rock and roll, hail 🔥🤘🏻
Yeah, people don't seem to understand this language barrier thing at all.
Rauta I’d do even worse if I were forced to be interviewed or interview someone in any other language than English haha.
Good on natte for overcoming the hard times. Respect
Life is what you make it.It's about music and if he's using i hope he kicks it.And keep making music.This is person people we all have a path what ever it is.
LEGEND
Great interview!
Thank you!
This was great🤘🐐🤘
The reason for the hiatus was Nattefrost of Carpathian Forest was on Harddrugs. I got this information from Someone on Instagram and he mentions it himself. And what is that about testruns and demorecordings. This band has been going on for decades. You can't work on Music in a state like that he is.
True. I heard about those drugs, too.
@@RautaMetal He even said that he used to be addicted to heroin in the interview.
Yes
I hope he’s doin well now. Great interview
Thanks
Carpathian Forest - Through Chasm, Caves and Titan Woods.... What a masterpiece. The rubbing of hands reminds me of my ex-friends who did heroine, they rubbed hands or neck all the time when they were high. I don't care if someone wants to die that way, but Matti Nykänen what the hell? He didn't go to Valhalla.
Van Damme
Jean-Claude-van-Johnson
Right👍
I can see a bit of Willem Dafoe
Hahahahha
Never stop the madness!!!
Strength and Power! Nattefrost forever!
Fuck what a great interview..
Thanks. I hope we can make part two next year at Steelfest.
I think he's one of the best, and goes beyond his predecessors, it's difficult to get his albums without connecting to the internet - the death machine, ha ha ha SEE YA!
🇫🇮🔥A Finn from Chicago🔥🇫🇮
Nattefrost is a legend! Great interview!
Thanks!
I saw the Carpathian Forest 2017 live videos it didnt sound like Nattefrost vocals. Thought it was someone else on vocals? And yes I think he is a bit drunk in this interview.
mjrn70 Drugs and booze might have affected to his performance through the years. Drunk? Maybe, but also being very friendly and polite to us.
CF is still one of the best BM bands of all time. Pure Norwegian hate since the early years.
What does those runes say in his skin. Or is there deeper meaning.
"a few beers and blablabla"
The album never came.. so.. I guess it was all the “blablabla”
Blablabla= cocaine
One of the top 5 bands of his era and time....if he's still alive imagine him returning in triumph...since he's obviously gone thru hell if he sobered up.
Let's just wait for CF at Steelfest 2023!
Maybe he had taken some amphetamines or something, who knows. I don't care. Lemmy used amphetamines and drank a bottle of Jack Daniels every day and he is a beloved part of my memories as a musician. As long as Carpathian Forest keeps rocking on I am good with that.
Exactly!
He feels nervous cause he has the mic and camera in his face I would feel the same nattefrost is interesting awesome guy.
He was actually really laid-back and nice to us.
Just clicked on this interview,curious to see what kind of person Nattefrost is like. I have read interviews with him in the old magazine Metal Maniacs,seemed like a cool dude.Never got into Carpathian Forest that much,but they have a few songs I like. Sucks that alot of these comments are either inane as fuck or just tearing him down.
Ain't no need for that shit.
Agreed
Remember back in the day that some don't like CF because they have a kind of ironic and comic vibe going on kkkk I always love it
It's so exhausting interview..claustrophobic
Sorry for that! But I'm a person that brings claustrophobia into the room I walk. No escape, man!
@@RautaMetal ACTUALLY I'm taking it back, from time perspective - ACE INTERVIEW! :D thank you
Thanks.
5:18 jesus christ... much respect, very glad to see Nattefrost clean.
He's turning drunk
That is stuff that might happen while in Finland.
...and nobody cares.
He is turning dead ;)
people who never took other drugs think hes drunk...hes just fucked up from years of junkie lifestyle
@@heterogaylord9401 Absolutely , all ex/active junkies in here know very well what is going on in here - the damage heavy drug use with intermittent withdrawals do to you . And , not that I´m preaching or anything but , if there´s one thing to take extremely serious out of what he says is : tread carefully with weed , I know some people will say they´ve never felt any urge to do anything else - disparage that - out there the paragon I´ve seen is : weed ... ( maybe a bit of speed won´t hurt ) ... then one day , an invitation for a line in some pub´s toilets which you won´t refuse cause you´re already drunk and alcohol is just terrible ... next thing you know you´ve learned the hard way about the awful upper comedowns ... and yes, here we are , ladies and gents : that guy who tells you to chase this beautiful substance on the foil , two drags and not only your comedown is gone but you feel better than you can remember having felt . Meh ! Each and every Heroin addicts story ( with the odd variation here and there ) .
He´s sick!
I am distracted by his sneakers. Looks like they may be a version of The Sneeker which Adidas no longer makes. Had a pair from '09-'13. It is a shame they are no longer in production. Best pair of shoes I ever owned. Had I known they were going out I would have stocked up. Now that my irrational rambling is over I will re-watch and pay attention to the interview.
An interesting detail
Amfetamin yeah!
i want your fucking job Rauta, must be surreal meeting all these insanely talented musicians!
It's a lot of fun. But hardly my job. Merely a hobby that, like other hobbies, costs more than it pays :)
@@RautaMetal Makes my hobbies look pathetic! Been watching you for years, made my day you replied, thank you
@@HankStellae No hobbies are pathetic if they are fun to do or give more meaning to one's life. Just do what you like, that's it!
I always reply if I just see a notification of the comments, rest assured. For more talk with me and some other "rautaers", join Rauta's Discord server! You'll find the info on most of the videos in the desc.
@@HankStellae I just found this interview,! A legend! Dude has lived the rockstar life no doubt! CF is great band!! HAILS 🤘🤘
@@shaunshuping9768 hey premiere on BMC
Nattefrost is the Man
Carpathian forest forever!
5:21- 5:28 Can anyone explain what's goin' on? I didn't understand
He's referring to this gig that took place that day.
I like the moment 9:23 when he starts to speak about cross-country skiing in Norwegian way faster than in English. Obviously English is not his strong side
I love when a noob like you comments on someone's English with pure self-destructive crap arsenal. He never started speaking Norwegian in that part, he just named two Finnish ski jumpers Janne Ahonen and Matti Nykänen :D Fuck you big time!!! :D
@@Goryptor Lmfao
Curious if Nattefrost has access to watching the NHL. A load of Finns are on the Nashville Predators team.
Hails !
I miss the old nattefrost with carpathian and everything
Same here.
Great interview. New album should be comming. When?
Thank you. No idea of a new album.
With the upmost respect, I don't think there'll be another C.F album
Hail lord nattefrost!
Did you meet any of the other members?
Nope.
@@RautaMetal that’s cool to meet Nattefrost one of the best black metal vocalist.
Good evening, its time for some norwegian Black metal aaaarrrgghh
Speed kills, folks.
what can we expect for your band?
Natte: hmm... just rock and roll and have fun. yeah....... hmm?
Love this fella!
Black metal artists are such intellectual giants
See: ua-cam.com/video/pI8D8Cvqnkk/v-deo.html or ua-cam.com/video/RqEi_FkPppI/v-deo.html
Song at 7:10?
Sorry, I don't remember it out of blue. Soundhound didn't recognize it either.
When thousand moons have circled
In my opinion, Nattefrost expanded the genre into nihilistic rock n roll art, perversions. Only true to the cause, no matter the cost! Nattefrost- no regrets! Many have fallen off the (band)wagon-- pun intended, but NF's vision remains true to himself. Many are saying poor Strange Old Brew, doesn't age well! Hmm.. Fine by me, I'll have it served cold, with a blackened heart! 👌🏽
Nate is a certified gansta
2:14 best moment of this video ahahah
Van Dam baby!
It's like a giant literally interrogating a dwarf. Wtf.
That's because I enjoy protein whilte Nattefrosts enjoys some other... supplements :D
LMAO!!
I think we'll never hear the new album of Carpathian Forest
The shit he said at the end had me dying. He's hilarious.
He is an IDOL! Nattefrost rulez! Don't start smoking pot!
Naterfost you the same varg vikernas burzum age who most parents, responsible?
Not the safer side 😂 that was funny
Wow. Rauta has the Transcending obscurity tee shirt.
Yeah. Got it from the label. Actually used it today!
don't worry guys, it's just a test run
yay the rechts site or the links????
Dirk Fortkort what links you need?
He seems humble and down to earth and kindhearted, not like the trve kvlt elitist nerds.
Heil Carpathian 🤘🤘🤘
that's bono from shity u2?
Oh shit! I thought he was Nattefrost. But yeah, it must be Bono. That explains why he was talking about drugs and cross-country skiing.
You mean u2
Norveški Milić Vukašinović :D
Ballad2Grave Haha hahaha, ta ti je dobra
Pozdrav balkan!!
hahaha ima momenata ševe iz nocne more "mmmmmda...."
CF music is stuning as fuck .. Linkola approved
Linkola approving those drugs OR ski-jumping? :D
💋
I dont know but the looks like van dam lost brother🤙🏼
🥰😘
🥰
I hope he takes a break from everything substance wise for a while Jesus. I love CF I had never seen an interview
Yep. I don't think there are too many CF video interviews out there. That's where Rauta comes in.
well depends on what kind of drugs and how much one takes. cocaine once a month. a joint here and there won't make any difference. but abuse of certain substances does destroy you more or less if too much taken on a daily basis.
i wouldn't demonize drugs in general.
Same here.
Henry vacuum cleaner are so cuttie
I see the way he is struggling to breath. I m a copd patient and i think he has the same issue. But i regret nothing. Women alchohol drugs and rock n roll. It worth the cost. I prefer i lived a half live to the limits rather than a whole boring one . Hail nattefrost! Rock n roll underground legend. And a question. Are his vocals destroyed nowdays or he does it in purpose?
Fully agree with you!
I think his vocals were just fine during this fest. (It was 3 years ago tho)
@@RautaMetal you can check out hellfest 19 performance. Its kinda weird. I ve seen them only once back in 2004 with behemoth supporting them and it was really great . Unfortunately they never came to athens, greece since then. By the way great material in reviews interviews etc. Earned my subscribe instantly!
George Exploited Thanks for your words and for subbing. 💪
And yeah CF is not anymore the same as they used to.
