I remember my mother listening to Pink Floyd The Wall when it first came out. I was 3. Since then I have been through the rounds of music...from the 80's to the 90's and have settled on my favorite band as Type O Negative. Floyd is my second favorite. All other bands lack what I love in my taste."
"From about the time I was 6 and up, I was buying cassettes and records while my friends were buying toys with their allowance."
"When I was in grade school I took guitar and piano lessons twice. My interest in the instruments were unfortunately not from the heart, and I stopped taking them. It wasn't until about 10 years later that I picked up a guitar again. I haven't put it down since."
"I decided to join a band about 3 years ago. After about a year, they started to clash with me. I hated our songs, I hated our covers, I hated our gigs, and I hated the happy image they wanted us to portray. My voice did not match with their music all of the sudden, so they kicked me out. It was actually very nice of them to do this because I was able to call the shots with my next project, and be more true to my music instead of others' music."
"In essence, because of my dedication to music, I am very pleased with the final product. What is my goal? Nothing special...Not to sound too cliche', but just to be true to the music..."
