Phil Anselmo Interview

Posted on March 3, 2010 | Comments Off on Phil Anselmo Interview

I interviewed Phil Anselmo, and asked him how he’s dealing with the loss of Dime. Said Anselmo,

I will say that with each passing year, it gets harder and harder and harder. This year was really rough. This past December was excruciating. When I look around today and see what an impact that we made, and where heavy metal is at today, and I think of what could have been? What should have been? It’s very hard. It’s hard to come to grips with it.

Read the rest of my interview with Phil Anselmo on Noisecreep.

We also spoke a bit about his Housecore label:

I can’t discredit and say I am partial to NOLA bands, but I am. But that doesn’t make me put pen to paper or pursue them any further. I’ve got loyalty.

Interview with Marc Colombo of Free Reign

Posted on January 29, 2010 | Comments Off on Interview with Marc Colombo of Free Reign

Though I’m a devout Philadelphia Eagles fan, I spoke to Dallas Cowboys right tackle Marc Colombo about his new band Free Reign. Said Colombo,

“I had a few bands I was in when I was on the Chicago Bears for four years,” Colombo told Noisecreep. “I played guitar. Then when I joined the Cowboys, I was making up songs, singing, recording and do stuff on my own, when my teammate Cory — who became my drummer and is my fellow offensive lineman — who I hung out with, played at my house and we were better than we thought we were going to be. It was rough at first, though!”

Sean Kinney of Alice In Chains Interview

Posted on January 25, 2010 | Comments Off on Sean Kinney of Alice In Chains Interview

I interviewed Sean Kinney, drummer of Alice in Chains, for a “making of” video for their song, ‘Your Decision.’ Said Kinney,

“They shoot everyone else first, but you, as the drummer, play longer. If they do individual shots, you have to be in the background, playing behind each guy for continuity. Then they do your closeups and while they spend an hour on the other guys, they shoot the drummer for 10 minutes. I am like, ‘Cool, great, let’s get out of here.’ You work five times harder, and you’re never in the video, unless you’re Tommy Lee with a spinning drum set.”

Read the rest of my interview with Alice in Chains drummer Sean Kinney at Noisecreep.

We also spoke about their Grammy nomination. Said Kinney,

“Layne told me one time when we lost, ‘We should’ve won that.’ So it’d be bittersweet. He thought it’d be funny if we won. Either way, it’s fine.”

I spoke with Morgan Lander of Kittie about their 10 year anniversary. Said Lander,

“Hmm, another 10 years? As you get older, you feel the tour pain a little more and in different spots. Like, ‘Oh my lower back is starting to go!'”

Interview with Lamb of God Drummer Chris Adler

Posted on January 13, 2010 | Comments Off on Interview with Lamb of God Drummer Chris Adler

I spoke with Lamb of God drummer Chris Adler about their second Grammy Nomination. Said Adler,

“The first nomination was odd, and the second one proves the first one wasn’t a fluke. It’s weird. Any member of any metal band doesn’t aspire to win a Grammy. It’s outside of our reality, if you will.”

Ville Valo Interview

Posted on December 23, 2009 | Comments Off on Ville Valo Interview

I spoke with Ville Valo of HIM recently, and we spoke of the hustle and bustle of the holiday season. Said Valo,

“Christmas is one of the only days that I don’t work,” he revealed. “So I am excited to hang out with parents and my bro. We’ll eat, sit down, watch TV and shoot the s—. We’re not going to do anything big. There are no relatives coming over. It’ll be just us four.”

Read the rest of this Ville Valo interview on Noisecreep.

Here’s an excerpt from another part of my interview with Ville Valo, talking about the “heartagrams.”

“I am always flattered to the point of blushing,” Valo told Noisecreep. “It’s amazing that the symbol has traveled so well. It’s crazy that so many people know about it and find it interesting enough to actually put it on their skin. Back in the day, a tattoo meant commitment!”
