HATHORis one of the most interesting demobands I ever got. Their three demoCD.s see I like three of the best I evere got to review. These facts forced me to do an intervieqew with the drummer Pierre Ohlsson.

History?
-Yeah, we can say that I and Hampusbegan to play in the summer 95 and then played we some trash but we didnd´t get any basist so the whole thing get layed down after half a year. The both of us were in other bands to the autumn 97 and then we decided to try to come up with music agaian and we recorded our first demo "Fucking Glory" After half a year Patrii came into the band and began to play bass. We have began to play dirty punkrock then and after that have we recorded 4 demos  " If You Can`t Be Good, Be Bad", "Philistine", "No More, No Less" and the last one "Dead End Lane".

Please tell me a little about every member ,age ,interests ,work and so on?
-Me myself I is Pierre Ohlsson (23 years) and I play drums. I have no job for the moment. Except from music iam I very interested of motorcycles and all kind of motorsport. Then it´s very nice to take som beers to a good football or hockeymatch.  
Guitarist Hampus Kuylenstierna (23 years)  helps an old man to renovate his old boat and he gets som black money there(never wrong) He likes boats very much and he do the waterskiing and other things that belongs to the sea. Then he likes beer, hockey and football
The basist Patrik Karlsson (29 years) works in a fabric right now. I don´t really know what his interests is but they are mainly like ours, beer nd hockey i know that he likes. Patrik is the only one in the groups which have a girlfriend so is it any good-looking rcok nroll girl who reads this please write me. 

How is it to live in Strömstad then?
- The summer can be really nice, but the rest of the year is really boring. But we´re going to Copenhagen to study for a year all the three of us

And to play this sort of music?
-Useless, that´s because we get so little gigs because of that we live in a little town and here´s only coverband and other shit who gets the gigs., 

You look like heavymetalfreaks but you sound like this?
-I have cut off my hair recently. That we look like this is maybe because that we always have listened to heavymetal, trash, rock n roll and punk. 

Hathor, how did the name come up?
-We found in a book and we thought it sounded tough, it´s an old egyptian beer and dancegoddess, so it suits us fine.

Where is best?

How is a good concert with you?
-A fucking great party.

What is the most peculiar thing which have happened on a gig with you?
- It must have been when we played in a place in Uddevalla, because for the first the drumkit was nothing stocked on the drumkit  so the bassdrum and other things walked around all the time and then the mics fall down whole the time and the sound shall we not talk about. It ended with that Hampus almost destroyed the guitaramplifier but it was so fucking good gig so it was fun anyway. 

What do you think about living in Sweden?
-Yeah, there´s a reason why we chosed to study in Copenhagen.
