Metal Quotes

I’m not a big metal fan. I love and respect the musicianship, which is spectacular Picture Quote #1

People say Cream gave birth to heavy metal. If that’s so, we should have had an abortion Picture Quote #1

I think Americans such as Leviathan have done a lot to expand the sonic palette of black metal Picture Quote #1

Death metal uses a lot of white face paint and black hair dye to make its point. I quite enjoy this genre for its intensity, extremism and underlying irony: You have to be alive to play it and listen to it Picture Quote #1

Hate walks hand in hand with hate, and black metal especially is a genre that is full of white power bands Picture Quote #1

I’ll never understand the art world. But I kind of feel like there’s been some art world/black metal crossovers happening for a while Picture Quote #1

The term black metal has become a lot looser, or can include a larger range of sounds and extra-musical aesthetics, not just Satan and power chords Picture Quote #1

I still listen to black metal all the time - that’s obviously one of my favorite kinds of music - but I steer from it very strongly Picture Quote #1

I was listening to a lot of Norwegian black metal and death metal. There’s a great history to Norwegian black metal. That music is very dark and violent, but it’s also beautiful Picture Quote #1

I think Nouveau Gloaming is a classic black metal record and I would hate to be a band that kept trying to recapture the same essence, but failing, for the rest of its days Picture Quote #1

There are a good number of people creating black metal and black metal inspired music in the northwest. Much of this music is radically noncommercial and exists only on a very local, private level Picture Quote #1

As for complicating the black metal aesthetic, I don’t care about that since it was never a goal of mine to lay out any particular preconceived aesthetic, let alone one of traditional black metal where pseudonyms are adopted Picture Quote #1

Before the 90s, black metal wasn’t a selling tool [and didn’t] have money behind it. Then it became a pop sensation. Now that the record industry has collapsed and started to rot, things are livening up a bit again Picture Quote #1

I write most of my first drafts on an old manual typewriter, a really old one. It’s a big black metal Woodstock from about 1920. I try to write everything down at once, in one sitting. The longer stories in this collection are divided up into sections. Each section represents a different sitting, a different idea for the same story Picture Quote #1

Black metal seemed way deeper than anything else, and I kind of got addicted to it Picture Quote #1

I got into one Metallica record. That was about it. I never got into AC/DC or Black Sabbath or any of that. I was interested in the side of heavy metal that had interesting guitar ideas, but that was a very short-lived thing Picture Quote #1

I like to blow up stereotypes, like taking the icons of metal, the epitome of male testosterone and showing them as regular people Picture Quote #1

I don’t listen to hard rock or heavy metal. I suppose I’ve always been influenced by folk music, I’m a big Bob Dylan fan Picture Quote #1

I would draw my own comic book characters listening to metal. The drawing and music kind of went hand in hand Picture Quote #1

People ask me about ‘The Hurt Locker’ a lot, and it’s an incredible piece of filmmaking - as are ‘Band of Brothers’ and ‘Platoon’ and ‘Full Metal Jacket’ and ‘Apocalypse Now.’ But they’re not necessarily true to war in a literal sense. What they are, really, are brilliant movies about Hollywood’s idea of war Picture Quote #1

The most disastrous times have produced the greatest minds. The purest metal comes of the most ardent furnace; the most brilliant lightning come of the darkest clouds Picture Quote #1

People like Art Blakey and Buddy Rich, you look at them playing music, and it’s just like looking at a heavy metal drummer. I mean, they’re playing with the same amount of ferocity. It’s not to say all jazz is like that Picture Quote #1

I had old bunk beds that my dad got from Seabrook Farms. They were first used by German prisoners during World War II, who were sent to work the farms during the war. The metal beds with their thin mattresses could easily be used as a jungle gym and I loved them Picture Quote #1

I think it’s safe to say that 50% of the record buying metal community is people between the ages of 16 and 25 - people still in their teenage-angsty, early young-adult years Picture Quote #1

When this genre of music started in America, Metallica was up north in California, we were in Southern California, Anthrax was on the East Coast. We each developed our own metal music, and after 30 years, we’re still playing our metal music Picture Quote #1

Years ago, I was performing, and people kept calling out for ‘Puppy Love’ and I just didn’t want to. Then I thought I’d have some fun, so we did this insane heavy metal version of it. The applause was polite Picture Quote #1

We can’t believe how many gays there are in heavy metal, people like Picture Quote #1

CGI has fully ruined car crashes. Because how can you be impressed with them now? When you watch them in the 70s, it was real cars, real metal, real blasts. They’re really doing it and risking their lives Picture Quote #1

A Republican philosophy goes something like this: If you take your car to the mechanic, and instead of fixing it, they take out the engine and charge you an arm and a leg, you should conclude that mechanics can’t fix cars and you should probably just take yours to the junkyard and sell it for scrap metal Picture Quote #1

And I realized, when I’d come in to the meetings with these corrugated metal and chain link stuff, and people would just look at me like I’d just landed from Mars. But I couldn’t do anything else. That was my response to the people and the time Picture Quote #1
