Musician — Moscow
03Interview
Name, where are you from?
Alex, Moscow.
What do you do?
ФАК Б - singer.
Describe your style in three words?
RAW, synth, experimental.
What’s the best gig you’ve ever been to?
Agnostic Front, Saint-Petersburg 2010. I was 15 years old and that was my very first trip from a small town to a big city to the hardcore show with my friends.
If you could put any three bands in history on a lineup?
Pink Turns Blue, The Burning Skies of Elysium and Lowlife.
Which subcultures have influenced you?
When I was a kid I was really into punk and skinheads culture. But for now, gothic rock is my biggest inspiration.
If you could spend an hour with anyone from history?
I think to hangout with GG Allin could be fun.
Where is your favourite independent venue?
Warschauer straße, Berlin - I spent such a crazy time there. That street has a real spirit of freedom, fun and punk-rock.
Your greatest unsung hero or heroine in music?
Rozz Williams - that guy had everything: a beautiful voice, expression, epatage and crazy character.
