DF n°4, Interview with THE BLIZZARD SOW, December 2nd, 2004


This was our third show on Radio Campus, and the fourth radio show of the story of Douche Froide. The first one was held in June 2003. We had invited the crazy Franco-Ukrainian band The Blizzard Sow for a trip into the muddy territories of “deep folk”, a music genre the band had created in reference to the Deep South and to the nightmarish stories of their folk songs. We had a very funny interview with them and they played in acoustic some of their new songs. Their first album, Baagou Music, had just been released on the label Cynfeirdd. However, we had received the bad news of John Balance’s death and it was quite a shock. The band Coil had been so important for us. And the song “Are You Shivering?” was our introductory hymn. So there is a feeling of melancholia while listening to this show, even if we took a lot of pleasure and laughed a lot while doing it.
