the last question is about kreator. you did two albums with them: outcast and endorama. however, they weren’t received very well from the fans because of their softer, more melodic and even gothic musical direction. you actually were blamed for this. isn’t it a little bit frustrating?
no, because it wasn’t my idea. the problem is that mille (petrozza) listens to a lot of pop music. he hated metal. he wanted to do “real” music. i told him for endorama: “are you sure you want to do this?” and he said “yes! i want to be more commercial.” i was just his side man. i was here to help him reach that goal. when an album is not very successful, it’s easy to say “it’s all this guy’s fault!”
you’re saying that mille doesn’t like metal, then what is he doing leading a thrash metal band?
he has to do it. that’s the way he earns his money. there’s no other way.
mille listens a lot of pop music and hates metal fuck off ! i just dont get the things he said at that interview
