As Mashaj
born Messiah is the product of a concern that arises in my very young at the age of 15 years, with a feeling of wanting preach the gospel through rock music, just went to see a cover of the band Stryper when I actually decided even in those days did not know it was a bass. He was only my desire to preach
the word of God through this music that were very large indeed. I was in several projects where I learned much of the music world thanks to God including Dreams and Visions. And it was in 2009 when it finally starts to thrash metal project that proclaims Christ with his lyrics for the purpose of evangelizing the world. About

At first there were three, Daniel Manosalva on guitar, Hugo Zerpa on drums and me on vocals and bass. And currently, Daniel Manosalva on lead guitar, Carlos Gonzalez on rhythm guitar, Rafael Ramirez on drums and me on vocals and bass.
Masihaj is your solo project, but Do not continue in dreams and visions?:
Dreams and visions was a stage in my life long learning, it was like a school where I learned much and thanks to them I am who I am as a musician today, but unfortunately and the band is disbanded but its leader Felipe Gonzalez continued with other projects working equally for the work of God.
The band stop a while and came up with new members, what should be so:
Well every beginning is difficult for a band and I know who are the people that you will see is in progress so were stopped a few months but still working hard, we have a new drummer Rafael Ramirez (ex-STRATUZ) and a fourth member to complete the line-up Carlos Gonzalez on second guitar, and actually Mashaj is a band for two guitarists.

For inspiration and feeling Stryper is a big influence for us in that part of our gender Tourniquet, Deliverance, Mortification, Believer, and the secular Exodus, Slayer, Anthrax, Over Kill , Evile.
What church or ministry support them?:
currently working in conjunction with the restoration movement underground "The Rock" led by Pastor Hector Simon which works to disciple young people who come from these media rockers have decided to change their lives and follow Christ.
How do white metal scene in Venezuela, which bands would you recommend?
recently visited a Christian band festival in Valencia and we were very surprised by the boom of white metal bands in the country and a variety of genres all really good, especially a call for death Domatha metal versions were indeed Mortification Maturin and a metal-core playing very good called Stigma.

"Which band have shared and how it has been the experience:
We have shared several times as Pantokrator with Proskgod panas and experiences have been very positive since they are bands with a lot of experience here in our country, always learn something from them. How do
supporting Christian bands Venezuela?:
Look I've seen a big move recently in our country by many churches and youth leaders but no shortage of people still do not understand this view but just as are people who love Christ, but the important thing impact the secular world and that is where the most work, because youth today are more demanding when listening to a band and I think as a Christian band must be the best musically in order to impress the public as well as lead a life of the spiritual fruits along with much prayer, and this is the fastest way to spread the message God.
A thrash compilation Venezuelan metal where they appear, how was the experience:
If there are two national compilations of thrash metal which were selected, one is "Nuclear rock production" and the other is for the people of "Union thrashers Venezuela" and the truth We are proud to belong to the family of national thrash bands because we are a Christian band and this is a success, and it's an open door to bring the message of God to all those people. Final words
for zine readers enough blood
Once Jesus being here in this world said fence by all countries in the world and preach the good news to all those who believe in me and be baptized, be saved. But those who do not believe me, I'll refuse. So our commitment is great and it is this, that of bringing the world the great message of salvation through the metal so you who read these lines and do not know of this great message, I tell you that it is no coincidence that Jesus loves you truth and is bigger than your problems so you just look. Greetings and hope to visit someday, it would be a pleasure, thank you very much! YOU CAN TRUST
