00:00The Albert Fish comes out, and then shortly after, we'll have a female fan of the band

00:15come out, take the stick away from him, and proceed to beat him up on stage throughout

00:22the remainder of the song.

00:23People talk about serial killer culture, and what they don't understand is that's American

00:29culture.

00:30I got more and more practiced, versed at what I was doing and how I was going to ask for

00:36what I wanted in the long run, which was art.

00:40People actually come from everywhere for this tour.

00:43Remember when we did that open mic at that Christian coffee house?

00:47Yeah, that's right.

00:48They loved us.

00:49They did.

00:50They were all left.

00:51They were like, well, you guys are singing about Satan, but you guys are pretty good.

00:53It was entertaining.

00:54I like it more about the psychology of why someone would do this rather than be fascinated

01:00of why these crimes have happened.

01:03Our inspiration for the song Mr. Fish was actually from a documentary we saw.

01:11This painting is the pivotal piece of the Mountain series.

01:15It's called Heel to Skelter.

01:17I came across the story of Chicago's murder castle, and it was the story of Dr. H.H.

01:23Holmes.

01:24I was reading a book about Richard Ramirez, and in the book it said he spent his spare time

01:28writing to people on the outside.

01:29I was like, yeah, that'd be pretty cool to try.

01:31Gacy sent me this card for, you know, my mother's death.

01:38Pretty much if you can name any popular killer who's well known, we'd probably have a song

01:43about him.

01:45My personal opinion about these type of things is that they are actual historical artifacts.

01:52The people that really glorify murderers and bad guys and serial killers, these are the

01:58guys that are at the top of the heap.

02:00They got me interested in it, they got you interested in it, and they got all of the

02:04world interested in the grisly, macabre actions of these weirdos.
