I loathe most crossover music. Yet I like to think when it comes to Code it's something different.

Bands are more willing to take risks and we don't need this big label over us anymore telling us what it means to sell records and get into magazines.

I think there was a brief period where Norwegian bands were evolving and that was an interesting time where it seemed like a band like Darkthrone was stuck in the midst of a lot of change and seemed a bit redundant.

When you're trying to free yourself from a religion that has been ingrained in you since childhood, it's more like ripping out your veins and tendons.

I don't like bands who would play music like Code. I mean I hate most bands with emotional singing parts (I adore metal singing like Iron Maiden though!)

In the past stories have been what tethers us to the world and they've made us who we are.

You never leave a band like DHG. There's very few who are insane enough to be a part of something like that and you just can't take it out of you that easily!
