A long new exclusive intie with Dan!

and...just for the record...I consider myself to be a big part o the sucess of Diabolical Masquerade...but not 100% responsible for the success, I am pretty sure I cannot have said that in the interview...but i speak fast and the guys are russion, so misunderstandings are bound to happen. Even though I have an enourmous ego and parlty meglomaniac..this is not the case here. DM is a joint effort from me and Blakkie and noone can that away from us....and if there is a future...well, we all knew what I said about EOS doing another album, Bloodbath playing live etc...and hey look what happened
 
Mr. Blakkheim just gave us all a little Psychology lesson, using none other than you (Dan) as a subject hehe...I thought it was actually quite funny, but I guess he must have deleted it.
 
I wonder why he deleted it? I saw it the other day, there really wasn't much to his post. Wasn't his message something like "Oh boy Dan can talk forever!" or something similar?

Anyways, great interview. I feel special to have #7 of 44 from that Unicorn box set Dan made. I remember when he posted the offer on his website. I had just acquired the Emotional Wasteland cd from some store I found on Gemm.com and was loving it, so I sprang for the demo's at once. Hehe. It's definitely great stuff. I'm not sure that I'd want to see these songs re-done on a second Second Sky CD, though. I feel like maybe they ought to be left alone. Thoughts?
 
Guys, I don't really know what the controversy is all about. The interview never reads, "I am 100 percent responsible for the success of Diabolical Masquerade."
What it says is, "I know that I am also responsible for the success of that project."
Probably we misheard something on tape, I'll check that again, but I really see no disagreements between what we printed and what Dan said a few posts above!!

I think we should trust Dan in re-doing them. I'm pretty shure that when he re-does them he will do it properly.
I don't think that he will totally change the basics, likely mostly the sound will improve a lot.
And he said that they will make most of the remakes for the second "Second Sky" album. It was easy to read over...

Or he typed second twice by mistake

Glad someone didn't just "read over" my post. Thanks. Hehehe ;)

I think if Dan remakes some of the demo songs for inclusion on the second disc, that will be ok. However, I personally would want new material also. The person who said I have this opinion only b/c I've already heard the songs probably hits the nail on the head, I'd have to admit. Hehe.
