Admittedly, I was first exposed to Biohazard when Beavis and Butthead were rocking out to \u201cPunishmen\"\"<\/a>t\u201d during one of their old school episodes. No problems, there\u2026 That show kicked ass (huh huh.) Since that day, I have always followed the band and checked out their albums. I picked up a limited copy of Urban Discipline and played it relentlessly. Shortly thereafter, I anxiously cracked open the neon orange case when State Of The World Address dropped, and just recently scored a bright orange vinyl promo copy of the album in Ithaca for $10. Score!<\/p>\n

So on February 8th<\/sup>, of course I\u2019d have to check the group out when Amp Entertainment, Black Shoe Productions, and Station 58 brought the Boogity-Woogity Brooklyn Boys to town. Before their performance, I was able to sit down with guitar\/vocalist Billy Graziadei to ask a few questions about their latest record, their lengthy career in the music industry, the departure of their longtime bassist and front man, Evan Seinfeld, and what\u2019s in store for “Reborn in Defiance”<\/p>\n

Greg<\/strong>: What\u2019s up, Billy? Thank you for taking the time to speak with Upstate Metal. There were some health issues while you were on tour in Europe\u2026 How is everybody doing?<\/p>\n

Billy<\/strong>: The name of the band is Biohazard, and there is always something crazy going on with us. We did 3 shows in the States before we went to Europe, and a couple of days before those 3 shows, we were in rehearsals. Danny\u2019s wife, our drummer\u2026 The baby came late. He\u2019s like \u201cDude, I don\u2019t think the baby is gonna come before we leave\u2026 We\u2019re gonna need to either cancel the tour or find somebody else to fill in for me. So we got Danny from Sworn Enemy\u2026 We rehearsed with him just in case. Kept him on reserve\u2026 Of course the baby didn\u2019t come, so we took Danny with us. He was awesome\u2026 Phenomenal! So we get to Europe on tour with Suicidal (Tendencies), Terror, Walls of Jericho, and Lionheart. We get there and Scott is rushed to the hospital. Spends the whole day in the hospital, they run all these tests and they couldn\u2019t find out what was wrong with him. He checked himself out at around 9:30 at night, we went onstage at 10, and he rocked the show, went back to the hospital, and stayed overnight. We picked him up the next morning and we finished the tour. Anybody else would have quit, but that dude\u2019s a fuckin\u2019 vegetarian hardcore dude, a hardworkin\u2019 ass motherfucker, and he did it. Now, today\u2019s the first date of the US run, and Bobby\u2019s got Pneumonia. I just got a call yesterday and he could barely breathe, he could barely talk\u2026<\/p>\n

Greg<\/strong>: He\u2019s got Pneumonia right NOW?!<\/p>\n

Billy:<\/strong> Yea, so\u2026 He\u2019s gonna make the show. Same thing\u2026 Hardcore motherfucker! Anybody else would\u2019ve cancelled the tour, but we\u2019re Biohazard, you know what I mean\u2026 Full of viruses but good, positive energy<\/p>\n

Greg<\/strong>: So, Danny just had a baby girl (Congrats, Danny!) What is it like being a family man on the road? You guys have been doing this so long that\u2026<\/p>\n

Billy<\/strong>: You know what\u2026 Even without kids I\u2019ve always been a family man. My family has always been important to me, as it has been for all of us. So, it\u2019s always been tough\u2026 You feel like you say more \u2018Goodbyes\u2019 than you do \u2018Hellos\u2019. Obviously the \u2018Goodbyes\u2019 are more painful, but we do what we like to do in life, you know? We love being here, we love playin\u2019, and the unfortunate side of it is being away from my family as it always has been.<\/p>\n

Greg<\/strong>: Well they obviously support you in all your pursuits because you\u2019ve been doing it so long, and you\u2019ve been doing it well.<\/p>\n

Billy: <\/strong>Thanks, brother!<\/p>\n

Greg<\/strong>: So this is the first day of your 10-date run\u2026 Is this run a warm up for more extensive touring in the near future? What do you have planned for the upcoming year?<\/p>\n

Billy<\/strong>–\u00a0 It\u2019s never a warm up. We\u2019ve been on tour for a month now. We came back from Europe and had 2 days off and this is the first date of the next run. We\u2019re doing this for 2 weeks, then we have 2 days off, and then we go straight to Australia for, like, another 3 weeks, and then we come back and go right back out again.<\/p>\n

Greg<\/strong>: Are you guys playing Soundwave?<\/p>\n

Billy:<\/strong> Yup.<\/p>\n

Greg:<\/strong> That\u2019s fucking great!<\/p>\n

Billy<\/strong>: Yea it\u2019s gonna be cool!<\/p>\n

Greg<\/strong>: So, Biohazard has recently released their latest record, \u201cReborn In Defiance\u201d\u2026 Tell me a bit about it\u2026? How was the writing process, and how long did it take to get it where you wanted it to be?<\/p>\n

Billy:<\/strong> The record came out in a weird way for us. We got back together in 2008. We toured around, and I didn\u2019t think the band would last for 2 months. But here we are 4 years later. We ended up having a great time together, got along, nothing was broke. We just rolled with it. During sound checks, we\u2019re jamming and working on new music and we weren\u2019t really conscious of making a record. We were just vibin\u2019 each other out\u2026 Different ideas musically and lyrically, and we started trying some things out live and it just became \u201cReborn In Defiance.\u201d<\/p>\n

Greg<\/strong>: A lot of U.S. fans were pretty pumped to hear that the release was going to be made available as a free digital download here, but it got pulled, like, the day before it was set to drop\u2026 Can you tell us a bit about what happened there? Was that just music business bullshit?<\/p>\n

[momentary pause]<\/p>\n

[In unison] Yea.. Music Business Bullshit.<\/p>\n

Billy<\/strong>: I\u2019ve been screaming for 20 years\u2026 Music is for me and you, not the fucking industry. The industry has always tried to keep Biohazard down and we come back swingin\u2019 and survive. The record is gonna come out, and for everyone in America that has been behind us and had our backs for all these years, we\u2019re going to release some extra stuff\u2026 Make it worth the wait\u2026 because we just had a bunch of bullshit to deal with.<\/p>\n

Greg: \u00a0Since we\u2019re we are talking about 55 minutes of pure pummel here, how were the new songs received while you were in Europe<\/a>? What was the response to the new songs?<\/p>\n

Billy<\/strong>: Awesome!<\/p>\n

Greg<\/strong>: Were kids going nuts?<\/p>\n

Billy<\/strong>: Yea.<\/p>\n

Greg<\/strong>: What was the best show of the tour?<\/p>\n

Billy<\/strong>: Berlin was great\u2026 Tilberg. Paris was phenomenal! A lot of those shows in Europe were sold out. London (Camden Underworld\u2026 Awesome spot!) sold out when we were headlining\u2026 It was our last show and it felt like CBGB\u2019S!<\/p>\n

Greg<\/strong>: Have you made any videos for the tracks? Can we expect any on the new episodes of Beavis and Butthead or singles in rotation soon?<\/p>\n

Billy<\/strong>: (Laughs) I hope so! We\u2019re STILL big fans of Beavis and Butthead. We already have something out and it\u2019ll be released real soon, and we\u2019re working on plans for the next video.<\/p>\n

Greg<\/strong>:So let me ask you\u2026 How are things between Biohazard and Evan? How are fans reacting to Scott taking over on vocals and bass after playing guitar?<\/p>\n

Billy<\/strong>: Scott was in the band for the last 2 records and toured around the world with us for the last 4-5 years.<\/p>\n

Of course, when Evan quit\u2026 We finished the record just the 4 of us (original members). He quit and it was a shock and a surprise for us, but that\u2019s life. Life takes twists and turns and you gotta roll with it. And we did, you know? We decided \u2018Fuck that\u2026 We\u2019re not going quit, we\u2019re going continue.\u2019 \u00a0I wish him well and have nothing bad to say about the dude\u2026 We share a lot of great memories and I hope he finds what he\u2019s looking for and is happy. And the fans love Scott! He\u2019s full of heart and soul, loves being there, loves doing what he does, and like I said\u2026 He checked himself out of the hospital for a show. That\u2019s pretty fuckin\u2019 hardcore! Anybody else would\u2019ve quit\u2026 They would have cancelled the tour.\u201d<\/p>\n

Greg<\/strong>: Biohazard doesn\u2019t play that shit, folks\u2026 You heard it here first! So, Biohazard has been in the music game for a very long time. You\u2019ve seen a lot come and go, bands ripping each other off, and executives stealing money left and right\u2026 How\u2019s the game treating Biohazard right now, and what do you think is going on behind the scenes?<\/p>\n

Billy<\/strong>: The Biohazard family and fans, you know, I\u2019d rather refer to them as friends. Without these people supporting us, we wouldn\u2019t be here. There wouldn\u2019t have been no reunion, and the reunion wouldn\u2019t have been successful enough to make us fall in love with what we do again. Playing back together again, for me, reignited that fire inside my heart for Biohazard and what I do. So I love being here and I\u2019m here because I want to be here, not because I have to be here.<\/p>\n

And as far as things are going, check us out on Facebook\u2026 You can get 3 new songs for free\u2026 Download \u2018em! We have a song called \u201cCome Alive,\u201d a song called \u201cVengeance Is Mine\u201d and a song called \u201cReborn,\u201d and we\u2019ll be playing those tonight!<\/p>\n

www.facebook.com\/biohazarddfl<\/p>\n

Greg<\/strong>: Lastly, as a veteran band with amazing experience and lots of street knowledge, and lots of road dogging, what advice can you give some of the young, up and coming bands out here in Syracuse who want to make it in music, on the road, and as a professional musician?<\/p>\n

Billy<\/strong>: Do it for the love of it\u2026 That\u2019s it. Everything else is secondary and not important. If something happens with it, you had a great time and enjoyed it. And if nothing happens, you still had a great time and enjoyed it.<\/p>\n

I want to thank Billy, Biohazard and crew, Amp Entertainment, Black Show Productions, and Station 58 for setting this up and putting on a great show in Syracuse. Stay tuned\u2026 Many more on the way!<\/p>\n
