I was wondering if any of you have funny stories related to Dark Tranquillity. I only have one and would like to hear more.

Somewhere around 1993, I got a death/black fanzine from a friend of rahvin's, and Sundin was interviewed. He was asked something along the lines of "What do you think of drugs and their connection to music?". His answer sounded like "I don't take drugs and I don't think that they really help to write great lyrics. Look at Paradise Lost, they write under the influence and nothing good comes out". :lol:

It's a shame that I don't recall the exact words.
 
i have a DT email list message from July 2000 announcing the grand opening of the lyrics page at the DT site of that time. it's not particularly humorous as most all of their messages are very proper and straightforward. however, in this lyric page announcement they close the message with:


Metal up your a**!

/D.T.



:D

i'd copy-n-paste it here but it has a very minor spelling typo in it, and knowing this crowd ... ( :err: ) i'd rather avoid an possible embarrassment.
 
Arch: Who is the de facto leader of D.T.?
ZodiJackyl: [to Arch] You are.
