In BW&BK #77 (April 2004), Martin asked Dave, growing up, which of all the dudes who ended up on the album, were among the first he had ever met. “I met Kurt from DRI in 1983, at a DRI show in Washington, D.C. I bought their 22 song seven inch from them, out of their van. So he was probably first. But over the years, I’ve grown to know people like Mike Dean (CORROSION OF CONFORMITY), or Wino from THE OBSESSED. He’s a local hero for me. My hardcore band opened up for his in 1984, 1985. Oh gee, who else? VOIVOD; I really worshipped Voivod over the years. And we’ve bumped into each other a few times. Max from SEPULTURA, I met him along the line. There are a couple people I’ve never bumped into, like Cronos (VENOM). And Lemmy, I had never met him before. There are a few people on the album that I still have never met. Like Eric from TROUBLE, KING DIAMOND, and Tom G. Warrior from CELTIC FROST.”
