First of all as Always thank you to A Thousand Sufferings for giving me the Permission to write this Introduction.
As the Readers of this Blog most know by now, I'am often on Spotify and switch through so many Artists. And in this Sence i found also A Thousand Sufferings!
Many groups that I know have achieved a certain
status, but there are also some really great underground bands that
deserve recognition. Personally, I am more of a symphonic, speed, or
power metal listener, but sometimes I also explore other genres or
sub-genres.

On December 23rd, 2015, the band debuted with a big bang under the label Satanath Records. With their album Burden, they paved their way through the big world of metal and made it clear that they were not going away anytime soon. They were only 500 copies.

As always, we were able to ask our questions, which we are happy to include.
Ceyla:
"Is there any band that inspires
you the most? Or, if there isn’t such a band, where do you draw
your inspiration from?"
All of our questions were answered by the
band's singer PJ, which is an honor for us no matter which band
member.
PJ:
„I
don’t know, there’s so much great music out there. Naming just
one (or only a couple) is impossible for me. I must say that A
Thousand Sufferings finds a lot of inspiration in nineties black and
doom metal. And I for instance, also listen to a lot of the modern
black metal. I usually look for bands who bring something new to the
table, bands who are not afraid of thinking outside the box, who dare
to integrate different elements and still sound vile, aggressive,
angry.“
You can definitely hear the influences of which
he is mentioning above in the songs, but the sound of the songs is
still very unique. Unique enough to let your imagination run wild and
just let yourself be carried away. Even if that's hard to imagine
with some music genres.
On October 16, 2017, the long-awaited
split vinyl (10" vinyl (33⅓ RPM)) was released. This was the
result of a collaboration between A Thousand Sufferings and Marche
Funèbre. In this case too, you had to be quick as there were only
100 copies. The Split was called My
Temple, My Prison / Capital of Rain.

Of course, there was also the question of the festivals.
Ceyla: "Are there any festivals or events in Germany, or even worldwide, that you would like to attend? Some of them always offer opportunities to apply."
Everyone has different ideas about which events
they might be suitable for, so we are always curious to see what the
answer will be.
PJ:
„Gemany
has a lot of awesome smaller festivals. I personally prefer those
over the big industry festivals like Wacken,
Graspop
Metal Meeting
or Hellfest.
As an audience you're much closer to the bands which add to the
overall atmosphere.
So
to answer your question, yes, all of the smaller ones“

Of course, we always give artists and
musicians the option to leave a message for the readers. These
messages are always very heartwarming, even if you shouldn't mention
them in metal. And yet, they are all absolutely lovely people.
Ceyla: "Is there anything you would like the readers of this blog to know about you and your music?"
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
PJ: „Keep the underground alive. There’s a lot of great music being released almost every day, keep supporting that.“
With this, we had another Honor to write about a Awesome Artists and we hope to fascinate so much more People to look into there Music.
