I am definitely less and less interested in music made by people that exist today, people that are living. I just see them as part of the whole stupid process of the music business, desperate (even if they feign indifference) to get noticed, trying to "make it" in the stinking music business, to become "famous" etc, and it disgusts me.

I'm pretty confident that people are going to come along for the ride. If they don't, tough.

I never wrote poetry, just prose. I don't really consider songwriting a form of poetry either. The words are important, of course, but they're dependent on the music.

Swans are majestic, beautiful looking creatures. With really ugly temperaments.

Maybe in the future I'll put out someone's one-off project, but generally I don't have time.

I don't want to sound like everybody else.

Making those CDs, signing them, numbering them, packing them. It takes hundreds of hours, but it's worth it because I'm able to do the thing I love.
