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!)

Before the 90s, black metal wasn't a selling tool [and didn't] have money behind it. Then it became a pop sensation. Now that the record industry has collapsed and started to rot, things are livening up a bit again.

I think when you have a band that are so separate and isolated then you have to know each others styles and characters quite well.

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

There are many ways to portray darkness and evil and it isn't all in being mean and tough.

Everyone's attention span these days is limited to how long it takes to flick the iPod wheel on to the next song.
