Boy Destroy – „Warpaint“ Debut EP + Exclusive Interview

1. Hello, thank you for your time, please introduce yourself in a few words!

It’s my pleasure, thanks for having me! Well, I’m from Sweden, I make songs that are honest – about subjects a lot of people wanna talk about but don’t, like addiction, deception, cheating – and I love alternative music + hiphop.

2. Please give us an update about – new single, new album, tour dates, new videos?!

My first collection of songs, Warpaint EP, is about my own struggles with addiction and myself, really. Influenced by my heroes from the 90s + modern hiphop. Lead single, Favourite, comes with a video dealing with the disconnect between humans – like the rift between a fan and an idol.

3. Name 5 things we all should know about you as an artist?!

I’m real, I won’t lie to you unless I lie to you. I’m a decent jazz guitarist, I love to read, I love the movies by Werner Herzog, I love a good story and a melody that makes my eyes water.

4. What fashion style or brand would best describe your music?

Emo/grunge. Brands hmm, Converse? I do a lot of thrift shopping, and most of my clothes comes from people that dress me. I get to keep some of it, yessss. Our Legacy makes good shit.

5. Do you have bad habits? A guilty pleasure you can’t seem to quit?

My ego. Every time I cut loose it finds a way to work it’s way back into my life. But that’s the ebb and flow of life I guess.

6. Beside music, do you have any special talents?

I’m a decent chess player.

7. Being on stage feels like….!

First death – then life.

8. Must Have – and No-Go in your Wardrobe! – Favorite Fashion Brand and Fragrance?

Trench coat + leather jacket is a must for me. I don’t think I have any no-go zones when it comes to fashion, nothings better than starting to like something you thought you didn’t. I like the perfumes by Versace.

9. A question you’d like to answer, but never been asked in an interview before?! + Answer pls:

Why is Klaus Kinski so fascinating?

I don’t know, I wish I did.
