The Texas Chainsaw Mascara answered an interview for Absolute Punk. Here are Infant Snuff's responses.

1. How did you get your band name?
We took it from an episode of Aqua Teen Hunger Force. It's perfect, because we love horror movies and are also drag queens.

2. How did this band get started?
Our guitar player and I had been good friends for a while and wanted to get something started. It finally worked out and has been perfect because our tastes are so similar. We live across the state from each other so most our interaction is done digitally.

3. What bands are you influenced by?
Everything from the Misfits to Blink-182 to Black Sabbath.

4. If you could tour with any bands, past or present, who would it be and why?

The Misfits, Blink-182, and Black Sabbath!

5. If you were a furry, what animal would you be? Why that animal?
It just so happens that I am a furry, and my animal of choice is the sloth, because I am a lazy bastard.

6. Why should people listen to your band?
They probably shouldn't, but if they're going to take the plunge and listen to just one shitty deathcore band, ours should be the one because we don't take the music seriously. Don't get me wrong; we're serious about what we're doing, but we're just here to have a good time and play some songs. If people like it, that's awesome, but if not, that's cool too. I mean, I just yell unintelligible shit about killing people, scene kids, and breakdowns. We're a joke band that's 100% serious.

7. If you were chosen to be in Guitar Hero/Rock Band, what song would you want in the game? How hard do you think it would be to five-star on expert?
"Breakdown Throwdown Beatdown Brodown" is our most popular song and one of my favorites, so I'd choose that. I don't think it would be that hard, since we all suck at a what we do.

8. If you won a Grammy, who would you thank?
The big man downstairs, since he never gets any love.

9. If you could change something about the music industry, what would it be?
Music should be about the songs again. All of this trend-hopping, scenester bullshit makes me sick. Music is not an image. This is kind of random, but another thing that bothers me is when people have a CD -- back when people actually bought CDs -- and only listened to a couple tracks. I used to have friends like what and it was like, "You're missing out on some awesome songs that you have right in front of you. Why the hell would you do that?" Go ahead and download our CDs, just please do me the justice of listening to the whole thing and not just the hit singles or whatever.

10. Memorable tour experience?
No real tours so far, but anytime anyone has some reaction about the band -- whether they love it or hate it -- I get tingly in my pants.

11. What does AP.net mean to you?
The internet is serious business.

12. What is your favorite song to play?
"Breakdown Throwdown Beatdown Brodown" because it activates the fucking pit!

13. What is your vacation spot of choice?
I love New England, but it's nice to get away to some place warm and tropical sometimes.

14. What music reminds you of your childhood?
My mother usually had good 70's rock on, like the Allmans, Tom Petty, Neil Young. I thank her for that. My dad, on the other hand, listened to horrible shit like Barbra Streisand. I think it's his fault that I make such awful music now. Whoa, we just had a major breakthrough.

15. If you could have any super power, what would it be? Why?
I'd be invisible. In addition to playing pranks and doing such fun shit without getting caught, you could totally watch girls change.

16. Do you feel that your band has "made it"?

We've made our grave, and now we have to lie in it.

17. What is something that most fans don't know about you?

From the beginning, we were very "secretive" about the whole project. People didn't know who was in the band or where we were from; all they knew was that we made some br00tal t00ns. After a rift in the band, we came clean about most of it, but something a lot of people still probably don't know is that, despite attempting to play metal music, I absolutely love pop-punk.

18. What's your favorite holiday?
Halloween, because I'm a huge horror movie fan, and Halloween is our holiday. It's great to see all the classics running on TV and on sale for cheap at the stores. Even the Halloween episodes of crappy sitcoms are the best. We even recorded a cover of Misfits' "Halloween" to celebrate our favorite day of the year.

19. What do you like to do in your spare time?

My free time is divided between my love for music, movies, friends, and the wonders of the internet. If I'm not in class or at work, there's a 99% chance I'm listening to music or watching a movie while watching some crazy internet video with some friends.

20. What kind of hidden talents do you have?
I have no talent, hidden or otherwise.

The Texas Chainsaw Mascara recently participated in Small Talk for Possessed. Here are Infant Snuff's responses.

1) Please, tell us something about your band (history, members, recordings/releases, livegigs, label? etc.).

The Texas Chainsaw Mascara was formed earlier this year by myself on vocals and a friend of mine playing guitar. We were just doing it for fun, but we started getting a lot of recognition on Myspace. It eventually lead to some controversy, and we broke up for a while. After doing so, we released Necrophiliacion, a collection of all of our material. We just got back together and released a cover of Misfits' "Halloween" in celebration of the holiday. Now we're looking for a new drummer to solidify the line-up.

2) How would you describe your position in the wide-world metal scene? What do you think about the underground movement?

Music comes and goes in cycles, but heavy music always stands underground. It keeps getting heavier, but it's always there. I think that's great.

3) Which 3 CDs would you take with you to a lonely island?

Misfits - Walk Among Us
Black Sabbath - Paranoid
Killswitch Engage - Alive or Just Breathing

4) If you had enough money to shoot a video, how would the clip look like?

It'd probably be very similar to a horror movie -- a good one, not any PG-13 remake bullshit. Probably something along the lines of a serial killer. And, of course, there would be lots of blood.

5) If you've the chance to change one day of your life. Which will it be and why?

I make stupid mistakes all the time, but I haven't lived enough to choose which is the worst yet.

6) Which song shall be played on your burial?

"Cemetery Gates" by Pantera

7) If you had the chance to kill someone and to bring back one person in the same way, which would it be and why?

I'd choke Paris Hilton with my bare hands for obvious, and I'd bring back Dimebag Darrell because he was taken long before his time.

8) What means metal to you?

Blood, sweat, and tears. And more blood.

9) What is your opinion on political lyrics?

Fuck that. Lyrics should be about killing people, not opinions.

10) What can we expect from your band in the future?

More shitty music.

Here are all of the lyrics (in alphabetical order) if anyone is interested.  A bunch of them were recorded and a lot weren't.  Some of them were also audio samples that we turned into songs.  Enjoy.

An Announcement That Stunned Millions Around The World
Lance Bass from Nsync finally came out of the closet. Too bad nobody has given a fuck about him for five years. I'm still in shock, seriously baffled. I never would have guessed that he's a pillow-biting bitch. You were the quiet one because you had a dick in your mouth. You weren't even allowed in space because you're so fucking gay. One down, now we need the other four faggots to admit their love of cock. Lance Bass takes it up the ass. You fucking queer.

Bipolar (The Disorder, Not The Vanilla Ice CD)
Hey there hot stuff, have I got plans for you. My mind races and my dick hardens. It's like an intense game of chess between the two. Part of me wants to take you out for dinner and promenade you under the sunset. The other part of me wants to gut you like a fish and touch your insides with my bare hands. Guess which side wins? That's probably hard because you're busy gasping for air. Now it's time for some fucking while you're still warm. Now I shall devour your remains.

Breakdown Throwdown Beatdown Brodown
Activate the fucking pit! Breakdown is a shitty Kurt Russell movie from 1997, but fuck that. It's also a Tom petty song, but fuck him too. Real breakdowns are in brocore songs. Let's move this shit! We may be playing shitty grindcore, but you gotta love tuff guy hardcore. All the tuff guys get in there and proceed to fuck shit up while wearing hoodies even though it's a hundred degrees in the building. I want this place to look like a fucking concentration camp (breakdown throwdown beatdown brodown).

The Broodwich Project
Forged in darkness from wheat harvested in hell's half acre, baked by Beelzebub, slathered with mayonnaise beaten from the evil eggs of dark chicken force-fed to dogs by the hands of a one eyed mad man, cheese boiled from the rancid teat of fanged cow, layered with 666 separate meats from an animal which has maggots for blood.

Bundy Family Reunion
Is Al Bundy related to Ted Bundy? Because he kills me. Is Al Bundy related to Ted Bundy? Because he kills me.

Coldplay Sucks
This isn't a 40 Year-Old Virgin reference; Coldplay is just gay. They fucking suck and you should kill yourself if you like them. Go back to Britain. I won't be impressed by your introspective lyrics until you write a song about your love for taking it up the ass, you fucking faggots.

Dave Matthews Is A Hippie-crite
Dave Matthews preaches shit about humanitarianism, and then drops shit off his bus. Literally, 800 pounds of that pretentious faggot's feces all over a boat full of people and into the water. Sell it on Ebay so some virgin nerd can smear it on his dick and jack off with it. Go back to South Africa, you dirty immigrant. Oh yeah, your music blows too.

The First Stab Of A Long Night
Bury me in a nameless grave. I came from god, the world to save. Bury me in a nameless grave. I came from god, the world to save.

Frank N. Stein Was A Jew
It is one of the strangest tales ever told. It deals with the two great mysteries of creation: life and death. I think it will thrill you. It may shock you. It might even horrify you. So if any of you feel that you do not care to subject your nerves to such a strain, now's your chance to -- uh, well, we warned you.

Giant Centipede Eating A Mouse
Holy shit! That centipede is fucking huge, and it's devouring a mouse. Why am I arroused? It's not even full size yet, my cock or the centipede. This further confirms my theory that the world is an awful place. Good luck sleeping tonight. Don't let the bed bugs bite.

The Gift Eternal
Darkness is a shroud to cover. Darkness is the cloak, beware. We do not fear the vast of blackness. We wear shadows in our hair. Darkness calls us to a reckoning, call us to its close embrace. We shall soon be there to meet it, though we cannot see its face. In the dark, the raid of the ghost and the coffin cannot hold. Those of us who love the darkness, darkness is our final throne.

Goregeous
You sure look hott with that new haircut and a bloody hanger in your cunt. Back-alley abortion has never looked this good. I'm pleasuring myself right now.

Hail Tom, The Next Hitler
Myspace may be as addicting to this generation as crack was to your mom when she was accidentally pregnant with you, but that doesn't mean anybody gives a fuck about you. Fuck off and go suck Tom's dick! We won't look at your ugly picture.  We won't read your pointless blog.  We won't add your shitty band. We won't comment your trendy page. Fuck off and go suck Tom's dick.

I Can Be Political Too
Is it still cool to talk shit about the president? I hate George W. because Green Day tells me to.

I've Seen The Scene, And It Ain't Pretty
I'm gonna start wearing eyeliner so I can pick up 14 year old chicks.  They're a little old for my liking, but I take what I can get.  After I kill her, I'll steal her pants so I can be even more trendy.

Live Strong, Die Weak
Lance Armstrong has no balls because he had testicular cancer. I'd rather die than be without my manhood. Live strong? That's dying weak. Tour de France but no tour de pants. You couldn't even cum all over Sheryl Crow's cancerous tits.

Moshake
(La la la la la) Mosh it up. (La la la la la) The bros are waiting. (La la la la la) Mosh it up. (La la la la la) The bros are waiting. My breakdowns bring all the bros to the pit, and they're like, "Let's fuck up shit." Mosh right, let's fuck up shit. I could windmill, but I'm gonna spinkick. My breakdowns bring all the bros to the pit, and they're like, "Let's fuck up shit." Mosh right, let's fuck up shit. I could windmill, but I'm gonna spinkick.

Murder As A Punchline
Wanna hear a joke? Too bad, I'm going to tell it any way. What do you get when you cross me? Dead. This is what you'd call splatstick comedy, if you were alive.

Penny For Your Thoughts
If I had a dollar for every time someone criticized my voice, I'd have enough money to buy an autotuner like every piece of shit radio rock band. We'd be number one on TRL and go on tour with whatever sad fuck won American Idol that year.

Southern Hospitality
Incestuous orgies every day of the week, but when the jubilee comes, it's the livestock's turn for some cornholing. Either way, someone squeels like a pig and some inbred country fuck gets off on it. Let's start a second civil war.

The Top 20 Artists That No One Will Remember In 5 Years (In Alphabetical Order For Your Convenience)
Aiden, Ashlee Simspon, Avril Lavigne, Black Eyed Peas, The Click Five, Coldplay, Daddy Yankee, Death Cab For Cutie, Good Charlotte, Franz Ferdinand, HIM, Hoobastank, James Blunt, Jet, John Mayer, Kenny Chesney, Maroon 5, The Mars Volta, Matisyahu, Nelly Furtado, Nickelback, Panic At The Disco, Paris Hilton, Three Days Grace, Wicked Wisdom. No one will remember us either, but at least we won't be giving head for coke.

This Title Is Longer Than The Song
Choke!

You Have The Right To Remain Violent
You are the gayest monster since gay came to Gaytown. Let's get down to it. God, you're gay. You don't think violence solves anything? What kind of monster are you? "I'm pretty hardcore. I've been know to do a number on plenty of cats." I bet you do a number in your tights on Broadway, which is where you moved to after you left Texas Chainsaw Mascara, where you're from.

The Texas Chainsaw Mascara recently did an interview for Gore France.  Since the site is all in French, here is the complete interview in English. If anyone else is interested in an interview, just message us with details.  Enjoy.

1 - Hi! How are you? Can you begin with the traditional band presentation?

I'm good, thanks. I'm Infant Snuff and I'm in The Texas Chainsaw Mascara. I write lyrics about killing people and then scream them at the top of my lungs.

2 - What is your favorite gore movie and why?

Well my favorite movie is Halloween but there's hardly any gore in it, same with The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I'd say my favorite movie wih a lot of blood is Dawn of the Dead.

3 - Do you think Freddy could cut his dick off when masturbating?

He could just use the other hand, but it'd take a lot of practice. Doesn't he just rape little kids in their dreams any way? With that kind of power, there's really no need for masturbation. I'm jealous.

4 - Did you already participate to a gore movie (writing, directing, acting, etc.)?

No, but I'd love to play a zombie sometime, especially for Romero.

5 - Do you remember your first experience with gore?

When I came out of the womb, much blood was shed.

6 - What do you think is "gore" actually ?

Gore is the visual counterpart to listening to our music; a bloody fucking mess.

7 - Do you consider gore as a lifestyle, a state of mind or a mentality?

All of the above. You have to live, breathe, and love the gore. It's all part of being a professional psychopath.

8 - What do you think about bukkake?

It's better to give than to receive, but I take what I can get.

9 - Is gore developed in your country?

Yeah, it's all over the news. Gotta love it. Thanks Bush. There's also some good gory films being made if you sift through all the Hollywood, PG-13, remake bullshit.

10 - Which band(s) give you a blast?

I masturbate while listening to my own music. Other than that, Anal Cunt, Napalm Death, Agoraphic Nosebleed, and many more. I can't forget our boys in A Black Rose Burial, much love for them all. Be sure to go listen to them if you haven't.

11 - Will you play in France this year?

We'd love to, but we haven't even toured the US yet. Hopefully we can make it out there eventually and see the blood fly.

12 - Which question -- not already in this interview -- would you like to be asked?

Uhh, a lot of people ask us why we chose the name The Texas Chainsaw Mascara. We actually stole it from an episode of Aqua Teen Hunger Force, but it's perfect for us because we love the original movie and we also happen to be drag queens.

13 - So, the last word...

Thank you for the sick interview. For some brutal tunes, check us out at
myspace.com/thetexaschainsawmascara. We will be releasing our full-length debut, Necropheliaction, in a few months, so be on the look out for that, as well as new merch that we're gonna get printed around the same time.
