Interviews: Blag Dahia (The Dwarves)

The DwarvesBy all accounts, The Dwarves are some wild and wacky, nasty and wasty, rough and tough dudes. They sing about having sex- alot. Their album covers feature nude chicks covered in blood. On stage fist fights are as common as down strokes. Their guitarist often plays au naturale (if yaknowwaddaimsayin). They got kicked off Sub Pop records for staging a hoax by announcing that the same guitar player was killed in a knife fight over crack… and they even graciously accepted flowers in remembrance!

But, with a new album right around the corner, one wonders, just how much of the Dwarves is a calculated attack against society norms and just how much is primal howling? How much of lead singer Blag Dahlia, birth name Paul Cafaro, is an exhibit of the human condition and how much is cartoon given life? Punknews interviewer John Gentile recently sat down with Blag to get the low down on these animals called The Dwarves and also to catch some info on the new release.
