I Was Grateful To Be

There's Real Potency In Metal. Metal Fans Love Metal As If It's A Nation They Would Fight For. It's Not Diluted By Pop Culture.

When You Say Something Or Sing Something Enough Times, It Becomes A Self-fulfilling Prophecy. It's Almost Like Casting Spells. I Don't Mean Necessarily In The Flighty, 'i'm Going To Go Buy A Cloak With A Hood Now' Way.

Musically, I Didn't Relate To Berlin. There Seemed To Be A Lot Of Machine Music Made There - I Don't Think I Saw A Stringed Instrument In Two Years.

I Was Grateful To Be Away From All That Familiarity, To Have A Chance To Do Something Anonymously.

I Don't Think That Village Idea Of Actually Knowing What You're Contributing To The Whole Exists Anymore.
