Hello guys! Thank you for your time!

– So first of all, who are ENTERFIRE and how all this started?!

Enterfire is the vision of the Greek guitarist and vocalist Niki B.It all started in 2017 when Niki started creating slave of time! He was half way through the recording process of slave of time and he then wanted to make this vision a band and not a solo project.So he started searching for musicians that will bring this music to life on the stage with a lot more energy.After long auditions and many hours he finally found the members to make Enterfire come to life in the live scene.

– Who came up with the idea of the name? Is there a concept or an influence behind it?

As we mentioned above Niki B came up with the name and idea.The name needed to be inspirational to the listener and so it was! The key fact that brought this idea was that every person needs a bit of fire in his/her life,an escape from reality so  this comes to the conclusion of ENTER….FIRE

– “Slave of time”… is there a concept behind the album? What are the main lyrical themes of the songs?

Yes there is! We all know that in today’s world we are all chasing time…at work…at home…so many obligations and so many concerns but we forget one thing…TIME NEVER STOPS! See…we are all chained down to the fact that our time will end but we forget it.So we need to make every second count and not waist our time on this planet by consuming it with things that don’t even matter.So this album talks about this and gives hope to the listener…well so  we think at least…every listener can imagine a different scenario…a different story to the lyrics.This is what we want to achieve…some songs can have even double meaning and the listener can figure out the story and create his own scenario.

– You’ve been the main support to Bullet for My Valentine at Romania?!
Can you share with us the best memories of this experience?

From the time that we found out that we were the main support to Bullet for my Valentine it was a roller coaster! The ride was crazy.We landed in Romania and we had the warmest welcome and the audience where truly amazing!They were so engaging and we just did not want to get off that stage! We have a very big following now in Romania and we will be back in Bucharest very soon.We had the chance and honour to meet the band and discuss about music and they are the truly amazing and on stage they were as inspiring inspiring.We hope to be on the same stage again soon.

– As a London based band, what’s the people response at your live performances and how the local scene responds to your music so far?

Actually people here love our music and go wild at the shows which is surprising due to the fact that the metal scene is so much heavier than what we compose.We have fans all across the UK and people travel a long distance to see us perform! They are very engaging and know all the lyrics to sing along to the choruses.

– Is there a fast way to success in this specific part of music industry?  Do you believe that a band nowadays has the same chances  for  fame and success as back in the 80’s ?

People say that the age of Rockstars is over…well I don’t believe this.Now adays we have the Internet which is a very strong weapon towards success.Also we have much faster transport for fans and bands to go to the shows.Also every age needs its heroes…the people that inspire the listener musically.So I will leave this question to the readers…will there be new rockstars?

– Where do you see yourselves as ENTERFIRE in 5 years from now?

This is a very good question. As a band we have had a great success for the time that we have been together so I really believe that we will be at a much higher stage and level than what we are now but this depends always from the supporters.If our fan base is strong and United then we will do great things together.

Lately you released a stunning videoclip for your song “a thousand voices”.  Can you tell us a few things about it and why you chose this specific one from the album?

It was the last song I composed and I felt like this song has a lot more energy from the others.Also it has a great hidden meaning which is “Do not give up on your dreams” if you see the video it is a person which gave up on his musical journey and became something else…something that made him miserable and unhappy.The meaning of life is to enjoy every moment of it and do what you love.So after what he thought was a nightmare he saw his old guitar there left as a reminder that it was reality so he decided to start again and give music one more shot!

– What are your plans for 2020 and beyond and what we should expect next?!

We have many things lined up in the pipeline and also we are sad to announce that our second guitarist is not part of the band anymore so we are sorting out the line up first and then continuing with our live shows(UK and EU tour 2020).Also Niki B is in the process of recording guitars and vocals for the second album which will be released in 2020! Hmmm maybe a third video clip is going to be released early 2020?? Hmmm I didn’t say that hehe (Niki B says…)! Stay tuned and always metal!
