Ensoph: "I was so young...my soul was still alive!"
 1. Hello, Nico! Tell us about your band Ensoph.
Ensoph were born in 1997 in Venice (Italy) in the first EP, the sound was dark, doom, goth, folk metal, while the subsequent four albums we moved
towards sound industrial, goth and extreme metal.Our lyrics deal with various topics: esotericism, mysticism, philosophy, but also inspires us to great poets and
writers of the 800 and 900.
2. What can we do while listening to your music?
Certainly open the mind, seek to capture "the words into the words" ... there is not only white and black, but an universe of colors and shades to paint the
infinite... the time of certainties is finished!
3. And what kind of music is interesting for you as for the listener?
I love so many styles and musical genres, but I think that are more
important individual artists or bands that not genres ...
Definitely Italian bands like the goblin or devil doll ... but also Sopor
Aeternus, NIN, Depeche Mode, Diamanda Galas, Dead Can Dance, the list really
too long!
4. With what your musical career has begun ?
Oh my "career music began many years ago in 1991 ... at that time was
playing guitar in a band that did covers of Metallica, Slayer and Megadeth
... I miss those days...I was so young...my soul was still alive!!!

6. It is known that you write the poems besides songs. I would like to know more about your book.
I have always loved poetry, I have always written ... but I never thought
to publish my work, but after a really dark period of deep depression, I have
gathered my poems in a book as a testimony of my life, a will. The book is
called "Splinters of glass-restless thoughts"

I am very proud of this work ... is sick, dark, hopeless ... a journey to hell...

Well...I really love to read!!! And I love a lot of poet and writers...Poe,
Charles Baudelaire, Tolkien, F Kafka, Dostoevsky, William Blake, John Milton,
Paul Verlaine. Lovecraft Arthur Rimbaud, Pasolini, Hermann Hesse, Oscar Wilde,
William Shakespeare, De Sade, Camus, Charles Bukowski...
8. You have piercings and many tattoos on your body. What does they mean: carry some important hidden sense for you, or just for beauty?
honestly I don't know how many piercings I have ...
I have 2 tattoos on my chest, one on my back and almost everywhere on the arms... piercings are a mere embellishment, I find them sexy ... but the tattoos are esoteric symbols ... and all have a deep meaning for me.
9. When have you made the first tattoo?
my first tattoo? I was only fifteen! a beautiful memory!
10. What are your future plans?
oh ...I have so many things in my mind ... I'm working on a new music
project, soon we will enter the studio, I can not anticipate anything right
now, but fans of Ensoph will not be disappointed! With the new band as well as
the disc is also planned a European tour! After that I hope to publish a new book!

minds!
