Diphenylchloroarsine - Mats/Benny Interview 2026

Yo Mats, thanks for sitting down to answer some questions!! 

 How have you been? 

Hey man, I've been doing good, you know.. Busy with life and playing slams all over the world , haha. 

It's been almost 5 years since we heard from Diphenylchloroarsine, but we know it's members have other shit going on. Can you tell us about other musical projects you guys have been working on? 


Well I'm super busy with Kraanium as usual and we are working hard on booking shows for next year as well as writing a new album so we are busy as hell . As for other projects I have one named Cadaveric Necropsy in the work where we written and released a promo track so far and have an album planned for release through Rotten music some time next year. Going through some line up changes now so it's moving a bit slow. 

And a new project in the making and it's very exciting and will be very heavy and a lot inspired by the earlier russian slamming style. Benny is doing vocals on this one. Have written and recorded about half the album, including a couple of juicy covers as well. Still searching for a label with that one. 

Now can you get into the new album? How long have you guys been working on it, what stage is it in currently? 

We have been working on it since autumn. So far all music has been laid down, still polishing the final product. Also about half the vocals are done ,then we are also working on finalizing the concept and finding the right artist to capture our ideas for the cover art. Been a very fun and creative process with lots of slamming and late night drinking. 

Congrats on signing with Amputated Vein! How did that come about?

Well I was on vacation in Japan in April of 2025 and then off course I hooked up with my good bro Masa from Amputated Vein recs, He took me to a killer gig there and after that we hung out at my hotel , drinking and talk about shit and he said that he wanted to sign any of my bands or projects for a future release and off course i took him up on it. 

Have there been any line-up changes that we need to know about? 

No line up changes, still me ,Benny and Paul as always . Keeping it OG hehe.

So we know the theme of the album is decided, is there already artwork? Can we see?! 

Haha sneaky sneaky, no artwork yet as it's a work in progress to decide 100 percent what artist we will work with this time. But we will go for a cold and snowy theme with lots of colder colours this time around.

Any differences in the writing or recording process this time around?

Well this time we did all the recording and hanging out and writing process in my waifu inspired man cave rather than Benny's dark n gritty dungeon at Snuff chamber studios cos it was not possible at this time.

Other than that the process of writing the new material has been pretty much the same as always: We get together, have some drinks and just let the creative juices flow. 

When can fans expect to hear a single off of the album?  

That will not be possible this time around due to content I cannot disclose at this time, but we will tease with some snippets here and there before the album releases. 

Can you name 3 newer bands that people should be listening to?

-Deprecation 

-Krocophile

-Gyakuki

Thanks a lot Mats, anything else you'd like to say? 

Thanx for the interview and interest bro n also thanx to my bro Benny who also helped out with the answering. ! Hope everyone will enjoy our new release once it is out and stay underground!
