Ultimately I want my metal in a bar and not an art gallery.

Basically every song on modern metal albums follows a formula and you get that formula in between one to three tracks.

I have a lot of mental scars from being brought up Catholic and being sent to Catholic school for 13 years!

I think Nouveau Gloaming is a classic black metal record and I would hate to be a band that kept trying to recapture the same essence, but failing, for the rest of its days.

I don't think there's anything remotely "new" or "experimental" about any modern metal bands.

Most every album - and especially metal albums these days - are made in a way that you can grow tired of them very easily: They're made to be dissected and played on radio, released as singles or stuck on at parties.

I don't bring any ideology or barriers with me into my music.
