Øyvind (Livstid – guitar)

SPB: If you had your choice, which band would you love to tour with? 

Øyvind: A tour with Livstid and Icon of Evil would be a truly sick affair. They serve their slabs of death in the vein of Bolt Thrower. And if you got a grindcore band as well, Death Toll 80k for instance, then you'd have the perfect bill; ripping Norwegian d-beat punk in unholy union with crusty Polish death metal and Finnish grindcore devastation in the brutal style. What a fucking riot it'd be!
