my opinion’s a cross between the second-to-last and the last statement within the article. ultimately, however, i believe it all comes down to the artists’ passion for the music, melded with their intelligence. e.g. in my opinion, the latest cradle of filth album is their best ever, even though they are now possibly millionaires thanks to the fact they’ve been able to reach a much wider audience etc.. this, in the most part i think, is thanks to dani filth’s empathic abilities as related to the concept of the album – the final dark days of gilles de rais’ life. therefore, to conclude: if you’re a once angst-ridden teenager and now a happy adult, but intelligent enough to be fuelled by facts which aren’t part of your monotonous and uninteresting every-day life – do a concept record!

Check out the dvd Heavy Metal: Louder Than Life to hear Dee Snider making that point. How could he write aggressive, angry songs when he’s sat by his pool in his mansion sipping champagne?

what happens when an individual who has forged their career on catharsis gets happy?

They turn into Jonathan Davies, the fat Timmy Mallett lookalike. As soon as Follow the Leader came out it was all over. They now had money, no doubt had a stylist (should have been sacked if so) and they all looked like cartoon characters. And the records were shit.

The thing about Tom Araya is that he’s a giant hypocrite with a ridiculously immature view of the world. Hardly something to be held up as an example >.>
