That's how I was with Where Dead Angels Lie, but I think that goes for most people who are fans really. Such a fucking amazing songwriter.
Also, that last bit about your mom seems totally random. How did that happen, if I may ask? |
I was supposed to interview him but was late getting home from school. He called on time and got my mom. When I came in the door, she said something like "that Swedish guy called, he's calling back soon and don't worry I didn't tell him you're 17." I did the interview, and coincidentally the other side of the tape has a Quorthon interview on it. One of the cultest tapes in existence, obviously. |
You should upload that shit, man! |
YES! |

I'm not huge on The Somberlain, myself, but it's a good record. I go through periods where I listen to it a lot, then years without touching it. I think it takes a specific atmosphere for that record to truly make sense for me- whereas I can listen to Storm of the Light's Bane or Reinkaos anytime. |

I have to admit that even SoTLB wasn't an instant record for me, took a bit of time I think to appreciate it. Maybe it was because everyone else loved it, I HAD to not like it hehe. Must listen to The Somberlain again, you might be right about it being suited to particular moods. Reinkaos was the only Dissection record that was completely instant for me even if it was a bit of a "WTF!" moment when I heard the Maha Kali single. Pity the guy is dead, would've liked to have more DISSECTION.

The only thing about The Somberlain that's not that great is the production. I actually like the versions on Rebirth more. Heaven's Damnation is a really underrated song you should check out.
As for the last concert being released, Set only says "those who lives will see."
So... Hopefully I'll live until that day hehe.

SoTLB clicked instantly for me when I heard it. The Somberlain took a little time but honestly I enjoy that one a lot more once I fully got into it. The idea that that record might need a certain mood might be accurate.

I think it's actually more comical to assume a metal musician's influences include classical music. |

I wish Conservationist was here, he'd explain to you how all metal is primarily influenced by classical music. Especially the first 3 Bathory albums - listen to those structures, man! |

Comical? What did you expect, a lesson in philosophy? He was more polite than a British gentleman, not everyone is an alcoholic turd and being offered something after you turned it down 10 times already would drive even the most patient of men nuts. Not to mention that having some 20yo fat kiddo chasing you around with braindead questions after you had a show and probably crave a shower and your bed on the tour bus is dumb and disrespectful to the artist/worker. Props to him for not knocking your teeth out, I would have.
