Once you feel like you're being dictated by other people's expectations, it usually backfires.

I don't know that I have a fascination with witches per se - well, maybe I just have a fascination with everything that's weird.

It's lifestyle music. It's not like some secretary who likes some pop song, but can't name who the band is; whereas a heavy metal fan is into every aspect of it. We'll see if rap holds up to that. Run-DMC seemed to be the Led Zeppelin of rap.

I don't do anything for the money. I don't need to. I could have retired after White Zombie and been just fine. Money doesn't matter. But there is still a good living to be made, even in the niche. The funny thing is, as time goes on, the niche stuff gets bigger and bigger.

I really just do what I like. I don't understand what the general public likes sometimes.

The hardest part was convincing people that I was serious. The people were like 'you want to do this again'?
