ROCKPORTAAL.NL – INTERVIEW

Hi, In Belgium and the Netherlands we are in lockdown due to covid19/corona. How is the situation in Cyprus? I guess this virus is not doing any good to a country that depends somehow on tourism?  You are absolutely right. Cyprus' main pride economically is the influx of tourists every year. Lockdown means that this would have to wait longer. At the moment the government is imposing new measures with early evening curfew hours, keeping the 'mask at all times' and social distancing measures as well. Artists are also primarily affected by the pandemic and measures, however when there's a will there's a way, hence we are motivated and productive. Without the virus, would Harmonize...

Having seen them live, I really enjoyed their performance. We then flirted with the idea of the word harmony and its deeper meaning. Harmony, balance and team spirit are themes relating to the concept of our work. It may not make sense now. But it shall eventually. Why did you want to play this genre? Initially the band begun playing heavy and thrash metal. These were our influences at the time. However, the band eventually came up with material...

Iron Backstage – Interview with George Constantinou from Harmonize

Hi Harmonize! What's the meaning of your band’s title? What's the origin of that name? Have you changed the band's name before? When I saw the Greek band Disharmony, live when the opened the show for Arch enemy in Cyprus, I remember how intrigued I was by the name. I then took the word harmony and played with it. Since the band was formed, we remained as Harmonize. It is about restoring the balance between light and darkness. What genre of music do you consider your work to be? Who are your major influences? Also, what can you tell us about "Warrior in the Night"? We used to consider our work to be thrash & power metal, but we...
