It was barely an interview. So much of it was a journalist filling in the gaps with his own hatred of prog.

Man, I shouldn't have watched is live album... The music was great but I think the more I dig into his persona the more I just have to separate the artist from the art.

Was he so obnoxious on the live album? Lol

He sounds like an old cunt in more interviews than I like to admit

don't critics have any sense of self-respect when drooling over SW's new album? It's one thing to like the album, and another to praise it as some sort of genious offering

It shows how most big magazines don't have much integrity left tbh. I prefer sput over most of them any day, because here I feel like most reviews are honest

it feels like most reviews I read nowadays are just ways to praise any album. I read three reviews on the latest Epica album, and all of them were frantic about how it's like - the best thing they've ever done, and only Louder's one was ''it's more of the same tbh, but hey, no need for change in this genre''

I would say he just comes across as very Bono-esq. I get that a performer, especially in a massive concert hall, needs to be slightly over dramatic to translate to the audience, but he just did some things that felt.... forced. Also, about halfway through right before he played "Permeating", he told the crowd that if they didn't like pop music they were a pretentious fuck.

"he told the crowd that if they didn't like pop music they were a pretentious fuck."



Ironically, he is the same guy who said Eddie Van Halen sucked because he was all technique and no soul, which also sounds pretentious as fuck

Hear the sound of music drifting in the aisles
Elevator prozac stretching on for miles
The music of the future will not entertain
It's only meant to repress and neutralise your brain

Soul gets squeezed out
Edges get blunt
Demographic
Gives what you want

One of the wonders of the world is going down
It's going down I know
It's one of the blunders of the world that no-one cares
No-one cares enough

Now the sound of music comes in silver pills
Engineered to suit you, building cheaper thrills
The music of rebellion makes you wanna rage
But it's made by millionaires who are nearly twice your age

Soul gets squeezed out
Edges get blunt
Demographic
Gives what you want

One of the wonders of the world is going down
It's going down I know
It's one of the blunders of the world that no-one cares
No-one cares enough
