00:00Mike Gauthier for FAQ 57, we're now talking about Glenn Danzig, who last week was in Toronto at the Warehouse to give a show for his most recent album, which is called Black Acid Devil.
00:18And our Much Music colleagues were talking with him about the very dark universe of this album, and also about its slightly morphed touch.
00:30I definitely wanted to make an extreme record and definitely try and take the music a little further, not just doing noise or distortion, which a lot of people call industrial, but I also wanted to add in some elements of techno and make them really hard, and make them really work with the kind of music that I do.
00:59So it's still very aggro, very hard, and it's just the next step for me.
01:05I write mood first, and that's why a song will dictate whether I treat the vocal right or not.
01:25And I definitely, it's like playing with another instrument or another person, and to be honest, even though it's a machine, you are programming it, you are putting your soul or lack of soul into that.
01:38So when people say, oh, it's too cold or so, to me that's not necessarily a bad thing, but again, it's just a machine sitting there until you get on the machine and you make it work.
