MO: I’ve read that you said a lot of styles of metal don’t appreciate the feminine, I think it’s pretty neat that love metal does, why is it so important to you to recognise women in your music?

VV: It’s important in life in general, so obviously it translates to music. It’s not something we thought, this is the way to do music, this is the new angle but I think it’s normal to appreciate the fact that we do have a mother and we came out of a womb, you know, stuff like that.

...

MO: You paid for the production of your newest albumTears on Tape, that’s a very different position to be in in terms of distribution & retaining copyright of your work. Was there a specific reason you self produced this album?

VV: Basically just to try out something different. As you know it’s a maelstrom that the industry is going through and people tend to change their labels so much that a lot of bands have the problem with signing with a label they really love then the people actually leave the company before the album is out. So we wanted to try something different. Some of it has worked out, some of it hasn’t worked so well, but we’re just trying to figure out the perfect way. It’s all about the music and the timing and what’s going on in the world at the same time, the political situation and stuff, so there’s so many variables that there’s no way to be sure and certain that it’s going to be perfect.

....

MO: What inspired the album?

VV: You just said it. It’s about whatever pisses you off, whatever makes you wonder, whatever makes you think about why am I here and what the hell am I doing. That makes you pick up a guitar and write lyrics.

MO: There’s a beautiful yet violent poetry to your lyrics, do you write poetry as well as lyrics?

VV: I only write the music, it goes together. It’s nice to have a bit more wistful lyric with a forceful music. It’s important to have a soundtrack to the lyrics as well, they don’t work on their own unfortunately.

Those crazy fangirls will swarm his home soon and take photos of what he had for breakfast. :neyde:

Seriously though, that's a very low fence. Anyone can easily jump over at any time:laughga:

Someone was looking at my songs today and asked me why I have 4 versions of Vampire Heart :rip:
Then I had to explain how you get the original, the remix, the other remix and the live :rip:

I have been so preoccupied that I did not even realize today's date. That picture is cute, they are wearing the same shirt. lol :wub:

I'm out of likes. ? 

I read before that fans are not allowed to record inside the venue, so these pics might be all we got. :( 

They said Ville was so friendly and in good mood. :wub:
