AND SO I KNOW STONE TEMPLE PILOTS LYRICS HOW TO
We were like, ‘OK, heavy metal is something we know how to play. I remember, I came to rehearsal and told my drummer, ‘We should speed it up a little bit listen to this.’ That’s how influential they were. We’d cover bands like Judas Priest, Twisted Sister and Raven. You said we’ve been around for 40 years but, in ’82, we were still trying to figure out how to write a song. The show was huge! They had fire and everything. Venom were the headliners and Metallica opened for them that’s how big they were at that point. Mille: “Yes! When I was a kid, one of the first shows that I saw was Aardschokdag, which was a festival in Holland. I think every thrash, death and black metal band will say Venom were an influence.” Mark : Another band I’d like to talk to you about is a band that I think are one of the most influential of all time, I’d say up near Black Sabbath: Venom. It’s a shame that most people in the world don’t know who they are. Mark: “When I met Tom, I asked, ‘Is it pronounced Seltic Frost or Keltic?’ He said, ‘Both’. They taught me how to put meaning into a song.” Tom’s riffs are just amazing! His lyrics also influenced me they taught me that everything matters. I totally agree with you they were one of the most influential bands, even for me when we started.

It didn’t happen, but we did at least two or three tours with Celtic Frost. The reason I didn’t join was because they lived in Switzerland and, back then, it wasn’t like how it is today they wanted me to move to Switzerland and I wasn’t into that. Tom asked me to join the band and I went to Switzerland. Mille: “It was right before we released Pleasure To Kill. They even asked me to join them at one point.” Mille: “We were close friends in the beginning when they started out, they would always invite us to open up for them. What was it like touring with those guys?”

Celtic Frost are probably my favourite band of all time. I grew up an extreme metalhead and, when I look at the bands you’ve influenced and toured with, it’s my bucket list. Mark: “You’ve lived my dream you lived during the heyday of metal. Hearing the new single, it doesn’t sound like you haven’t been practising!” Mark: “Your right-hand technique and your downstrokes are every bit as complicated as any shredder out there. I’m not a shredder but, every time I pick up the guitar, I know some riffs are coming.” Mille: “Before we go onstage, we warm up, but when I’m at home, I only pick up the guitar when I want to write songs. Mark: “As we’re talking about guitar playing, what’s your daily guitar regimen compared to when you were younger?” Mille: “It’s fun to see people getting so enthusiastic about your new release, but it’s also like, ‘I think I’m gonna use that for the live shows.’ Ha ha ha!” Mark: “I do the exact same thing! Ha ha ha! People think you remember all your riffs and all your parts but, when you have 14 albums, you can’t remember it all!” It’s fun to see because sometimes, if I haven’t played a song in a while and we’re going back on tour, I go to those videos. Mille: “Absolutely! There are playthrough videos popping up as soon as we come out with a new song. Do you ever go online and see young bands playing Kreator tunes as soon as they come out?”

I think one good thing about YouTube is guys like us are the first generation of folks that can watch other people immediately cover our songs. I try to stay away from any kind of negativity when it comes to my art. I avoid the comments, but I still love the fact that we can reach all the fans nowadays with one YouTube video.” Of course you can see it in the YouTube comment section, but most of the time, the people who find something to nag about in your music, when they come to the show, they see the song actually come alive. In this day and age, we get the direct reaction from the fans not only in the live situation, but I think the live situation’s where it gets really pure. Mille: “I avoid reading the comments, though. Mark: “The point you’re in right now is the most exciting point for me: where you’ve released the first song but not the rest of the album, and you’re anticipating how the world’s gonna react to your new music.” That’s why we sound like we sound, and if you say we’re sounding as fresh as our younger selves, that’s a huge compliment.” I take this music thing as seriously as I did when I started, so I still love playing, I still love being in the studio and I still love being on the road. I guess that’s why it sounds so fresh, hopefully. I always dreamt of being a musician and now I am one, so I do it with all my heart. The only way to keep the passion and energy levels up is to really believe in what you do. Mille: “You’re also a musician, so you must know the feeling when you’re playing music it keeps you young in your mind.
