Interview with a... Bunny!

"The same two guys playing in two bands would make both bands less special. I’d rather find someone who’s not well known from another band. "

That was the shit I was talking about the thing with Roopa...

Great info, thx Lantern
 
"Yeah, it’s a fact. Japanese fans are crazy, but in a different way than fans are crazy in South America. I think Japanese people are the last nation that has got manners. They are so polite. They won’t run up to you and try to rip off your clothes, or something. ":cry:


"It’s a certain mood I have to be in. The best source of inspiration is being depressed or pissed off. It doesn’t have to be something major, like my friend died or somebody stole my car. It can be stuff that happens every day. I was driving to the Spinefarm office today and exploded because I was so pissed off at the traffic. That’s a good inspiration for me. It’s a good therapy to write lyrics." he-he...:erk:
 
it surprises me that he appreciates manners so much, i mean since spits into the air and flips cameras off all the time and curses to hell and back in interviews and all that :-P
 
I'd have said the same in the past, but in person I must say he surprised me in his whole manner and attitude. Very nice, very considerate, very polite.. it's the way he really is. The business, the cameras, the shows, the lyrics.. that's all just part of the general facade and theme of him and the band.

This is actually a big thing about Alexi that many people seem to completely get the wrong idea of.
I have come across many who don't much care for CoB because they think Alexi is a 'conceited asshole'.
 
Nice interview, but OG has nothing to do with COB arrrrrrgggggh :P

Anyhow, the Roope situation might have already changed.. at least Janne said in some newer interviews that he actually might stay.

I have heard the same thing. I havn't met him in person, but a few of my friends did after the Dimmu show. And I have known people in the past who met him who said he doesn't have a concieted bone in his body; that he was talking to and hanging out with everyone there. (Actually, they said the whole band were great, great guys.) I dunno, it's just an assumption people have of a band's frontman, if you will. Sure there are some bands out there who are concieted, but that shouldn't speak for all of them. Great interview, too!

enjoy :grin:

Well I can translate the most important part :

Janne : "We made an agreement with Roope, that he will play the tours this spring and the festivals next summer and then we'll have a look on the situation again. He is willing to stay as a permanent member, but no final decisions have been made."

Just don't forget the Sinergy aspect either.
