Video | Interview with Gustaf Jorde of Defleshed
At the end of a successful Japan tour, Defleshed bassist/vocalist Gustaf Jorde swung by Roppongi Rocks headquarters in Tokyo for a chat. Watch the interview in the video below.
Defleshed’s Gustaf Jorde and Roppongi Rocks’ Stefan Nilsson talked about the band’s creative process, why they reunited after 15 years, what they brought back from having played in other bands such as Dark Funeral, Raubtier and Raised Fist, why this Japan tour was less rushed than the previous tour and when we can expect a new album.
Guitarist Lars Löfven founded Defleshed in Uppsala, Sweden, in the early 1990s. By 1995, the band’s classic lineup, featuring Löfven, bassist/vocalist Gustaf Jorde, and drummer Matte Modin, was established. They released five full-length studio albums between 1996 and 2005. They called it quits at the end of 2005, but reunited in 2021. The comeback album, “Grind Over Matter”, was released in October 2022.
This interview was recorded at Roppongi Rocks headquarters in Roppongi, Tokyo, Japan, on 9th December 2025.
