I would have to work on the song and figure out how they wanted the song done, because they're such high-intensity songs. We figure that out first, then I go back and listen to it and go over and rehearse stuff with it and try to get a feel for the words.

I had to be at least 8 or 9; I was listening to everything on the radio. You name it, I heard every song.

Sometimes when I've gone out and murdered somebody I go and confess and stuff. And then God loves me again.

I am not an atheist; I believe in God. But my religion ends there. I have my own personal belief system that is so strong it allows me to do what I do. I dont have to worry about going to Hell because of Slayer, you know? Everyone has a personal belief system and believes in life somehow.

Oh yeah, our first tour in Europe they wouldn't give me the time off from work.

When I do interviews, I enter them with an open mind and try to answer the questions the best I can.

As far as thinking about death and murder and various ways of killing people and how people die... I probably have the most twisted mind in Slayer.
