WITH THE LOST IT’S THE SAME AS ALWAYS
Note : if
you don’t see the humour in all that pl is saying in their interviews,
then you have nothing to do on this page…….GET LOST (btw if any member
of pl doesn’t remember saying something i’m quoting , please don’t come
after me….go bust some French journalist ass instead J
)
- About
" One Second " album : NICK
says " if people don’t like it then fuck them ,i’m happy with it and that’s
what’s important "
- I heard
that NICK is
gonna write a book about his life in PL …….wait and see
- "One day
in Finland
NICK
was a guest on a tv show, not knowing it was in fact a show for kids so
there he was surrounded by kids who were yelling "left" "right" for him
to find a green dwarf" so said GREG
- PL in
all those years have only cancelled 5 shows in a 10 year career because
of alcohol abuse
- "PL was
never a groupies band , maybe that’s because we are too miserable" says
GREG
ok hmmmm
here’s a nice thing i found it’s a French magazine that has an article
called "Satan lives in him" and this one is with NICK
-
"What’s your
religion"
-
N.:
" I believe in nothing, we come to birth, we try to live as good as we
can, we die. That’s what i’m sure of .For me religion is a big joke"
-
"When did you
sin for the last time"
-
N.:
"Am afraid i’m going to disappoint you, but i’ve never fornicated with
animals ! my last sin was to swear, i swear all day long, the word "Fuck"
is a part of my vocabulary .it isn’t much of a good style, but i can’t
help it, typically British"
-
"If you believe
in God , how would you see him?"
-
N.
"He’s portrayed as an old man with a grey beard ,lost in the clouds .He
could be a fat ass for all i know. i was raised in a Christian environment
, i have a lot of friends who believes , i respect their opinion ,but i
don’t feel concerned .for me the bible is a bunch of crap !"
-
"Did you ever
cheat on your wife?"
-
N.:
"Oh no! It’s not worth it, i don’t wanna feel guilty. and i don’t wanna
imagine her reaction if she gets to find out , i would be scared all the
time, a mountain of head aches ,not worth it!"
-
"When did you
last lie?"
-
N.:
"I lie like i breath ,Usually when i’m asked on the phone where i am, i
say i’m working, even if i’m at the pub,or i promise my wife to be back
at a define hour, knowing i could never make it, nothing mean actually
"
-
"Do you have
a favourite drug?"
-
N.:
"Alcohol ,i’ve tried so many other things, but nothing regular .i sometimes
smoke, but only when i’m drunk (laughs)!i love to feel drunk, i
come from a long alcoholic ancestry , and i’m not an exception .it gives
me confidence in myself, drinking makes me happy. it’ s a stimulant that
we need, but it can drive me crazy .i can’t drive while having a hang over
,i’ve the impression to have 3 legs "
-
"What do you
think of Iron maiden’s the number of the beast?"
-
N.:
"Was excellent for it’s release period, i was 11or 12 when it was out ,
i bought the single before the album, unfortunately i broke it in half,
made my cry, the 4 first maiden are master pieces .they had some problems
with religious fanatics because of their 666 intro .oh well, at least they
made the news ,all the publicity is good unless if you re accused of killing
a child"
-
"Why do you
think of the white metal band Stryper?"
-
N.:
"Horrible! i saw one of their video clip, it seemed to be so ridiculous
,just a media creation to sell! At that period i was more into Venom. i
hated white metal bands, posers they were good with instruments, but had
bad music, Lee our drummer can talk hours about them, he like all that
shit"
-
"And black
metal?"
-
N.:
"In 89-89, i thought that it was great, i loved Bathory, specially under
the sign of the black mark , that is until today a master piece , i’m
now less into today’s scene
-
"You ever sinned
with a groupie?"
-
N.:
"Yes, probably, but that was ages ago, sometimes while talking with friends
who are musicians that kept on saying that they’ve found the love of their
life ,even that we all knew they went out with groupies, to be honest ,
we aren’t interested in all that"
-
"Your favourite
sin?"
-
N.:
"Sex if it’s considered to be a sin"
-
"You are God
for one day, what’s your first decision?"
-
N.:
"To make sure none die from hunger any more, i know it‘s an easy, common
answer, but i know that common sense will make me forbid poverty, no more
sexual criminals from this earth, etc…On a personal base, i’ll buy a Ferrari.
No (laughs) , i can’t say that , it will make me such a happy man,
that won’t really be a good idea, knowing that my miserable life is the
material for my lyrics, or else my life will become so dull !"
-
"When you’ll
die you ‘ll go to heaven or hell?"
-
N.:
"Neither, probably in a box, in a hole, before i return to dust"
-

about
HOST(by
GREG)
-
note (again
J ) if you
don’t see the "" thingy it will mean that i had to sum up what
GREG
had
to say
-
"electronic
music is a part of our band now, whether you like it or not, it’s a fact"
-
One Second
could have done much better if Music For Nation didn’t cut the money on
us , "they refused to give us a single penny if we didn’t sign with them
again, it was black male"
-
"i can read
in some magazines that we sold out , that we are cheating on our public,
if only they knew how much we are honest toward our music "
-
"on thing is
clear HOST isn’t a metal album"
-
"but it is
a rock album"
-
"we continue
to release the most miserable songs, but we do it in a more subtle way"
GREG
saying that
from Gothic till now, they still are in a miserable songs writing style
-
"as for the
name, Paradise lost continue to fit what we are doing now, thank God that
we’ve chosen this name at that time. Can you imagine if we ‘ve chosen to
be called Fuck Fisters or something like that? (laughs) it wouldn‘t
have been very practical
-
answering the
question of who is today’s PL public:" this record has the potential of
appealing to people with different music taste "…"people who aren’t narrow
minded and love good music what ever its style, we’ll have of course gothic
fans, rock fans(if i haven’t made this album , i would have said that it’
s a rock album),even metal fans, i hope. We made it for us, so maybe no
one will even like it
