Interview by Jay Parker
Hi this Jason reporting from Bogota, Colombia... Today I’ll be talking to Elkin from Tapias de Pilatos a Bogota based Black metal band, deeply influenced by the darker side of Colombian culture and history... thanks for taking the time to talk to our readers Elkin... 1 - Tell us about Tapias de Pilatos... when and where was the band formed? Greetings, Thanks for this space.
The band started in 1995 in the city of Bogota, together with my brother Adolfo and two friends, Cristian and Nelson. We really
what Ancient Rites and Amon Goeth, from Colombia Nameless and Massacre, did. We had a special taste for Iron Maiden and I think for this reason the band varies so much in rhythms. We weren’t looking to keep a line, we played what we liked, but always with the intention of sounding dark and aggressive. 2 - Who is in the band?
