I first saw My Turn in Jack’s studio. They were recording
their demo (Noble Intentions) and I was enjoying my last day from a romantic
trip to Greece. The romance is gone, but
My Turn isn’t. I am happy to say that I
finally managed to see them play live after 2 years at Fluff fest and in Prague
and it was even better than I expected!
They are even cooler because they accepted to answer some questions for
us. Here it goes.
1. First of all, thanks
a lot for taking some time for this interview. We know how busy you guys are!
Tell us a little about your band, a short history and about the music.
Nikos: Actually I am the less busy one
cause I don’t have a job like the others, although I study at the
university. My Turn were formed during
the summer of 2010, with Fotis on guitar, Markos on drums and Apostolis on the
mic, spent some time rehearsing with no bass player and then Sergios joined in.
There was a change on the line-up during 2011 with Drosos taking the place of
Sergios on bass. And on spring of 2012 I joined My Turn as the bassist, which
was like a small personal achievement, cause I’ve listened to these guys from
the very beginning and I’ve been to many of their shows, and I was also a close
friend of them. My Turn from the start wanted to write sincere aggressive music
with honest and touching lyrics about personal and socio-political stuff as
well. We strongly believe that hardcore/punk is more than music, no matter how
cliché this phrase is.
Apostolis: Hey, first of all thanks for your endless
support. We appreciate it more than you could ever imagine. I think that Nikos
pretty much covered everything, concerning the band history, with his answer.
My Turn was something that we were all searching for and we are very proud of
being a part of this. Keep this in mind; we are here to stay.
