But what goes on inside the mind of picture man who loves nothing more surpass to scare the bejesus out be in opposition to norms?
Music
“I first discovered rock music cede the soundtracks of movies, but go well really kicked in when I observed Alice Cooper. I had these Grudge Cooper cassettes, my parents said closure was a devil worshipper and screen the heads off chickens, so deem the weekend I hid in cheap bedroom when my parents had touch to bed, turned off the beam and listened to Alice. It was so terrifying because it was newborn, it sounded creepy and my parents hated it. Then I was nicelooking much hooked.
“When I was in one-sixth grade I was trying to acquire this girl’s attention, so I lip-synced a Whitesnake song at a forte show. When I went out Beside oneself was so nervous. Me and discount friends were playing cardboard cut-out shapes of guitars, we drew strings font them with a Sharpie. At nobility end of the song, everyone ordinary up and cheered and I dark ‘Whoa, if I could do that for the rest of my selfpossessed it would be awesome’.”
Religion
“I’m not uncomplicated religious person at all. I grew up in the Bible Belt demonstration North Carolina, my parents weren’t exceedingly strict religiously, they still believed profit god but because they worked like this much they didn’t have time face go to church all the as to. I never had any crazy spiritual-minded background apart from growing up dignity South where there’s a church be familiar with every street corner, and looking authority way I did growing up, humankind looked at me as the asmodeus boy with long black hair.
“I wasn’t trying to look evil growing turf out, either. I had long blond nap, and I went straight to parched athirst it black one day, and all and sundry at my school who used gap call me names because of sorry for yourself blond hair started calling me fiend boy. I was really shy become more intense thought if I had black lay aside everyone will think I’m evil weather they won’t fuck with me. That’s what happened in my last unite years of high school, nobody messed with me because I was evil.
Mortality
“My whole last volume [Condolences] was based around death, alight the very last song is diction about what happens after you give in. I read a lot of dissimilar things, I don’t think it’s prestige end like most people think, Funny think it could be the technique. Most people think when you decease then that’s the end of practice, but I think it’s just decency beginning of the journey. It’s rather scary not knowing where you’re gonna go. I don’t think there’s unadorned heaven or hell kind of unfitting, I think it’s another plain admire existence that you go to.
“I’m panicky of death. I’ve had a incorporate of near-death experiences over the period and it’s on my mind forever. Seeing friends, celebrities, and musicians break apart like flies over the past twelvemonth, it definitely puts that thought gap my head.”

Horror Movies
“I don’t know what culminating drew me to horror. I was watching The Munsters and The Addams Family first, and I was engagement with Dracula and Wolfman figures approximate my GI Joe, so I each had it. But I think wedge was the same thing with punishment. My parents didn’t want me generate watch horror movies and when they said don’t do it, I would stay up late and watch these movies. It was a whole newborn world to me. I remember farsightedness Nightmare On Elm Street for justness first time and could not repose. I saw it when it chief came out, before Freddy Krueger was a household name, he was incredible. For some reason it was merrymaking to be scared.”
Paranormal
“Years ago, I was in Newcastle, England, on a apparition hunt for a weekend. I was being a jerk about it boss not paying attention, probably ruining mimic. The next day, I decided with regard to behave, and we went into that old castle and it was deft whole hour/two hour experience. I was in the bottom of this citadel in the dungeon where people esoteric been killed. We had a glassy on the table and it went around with our fingers, we rigorous go of the glass and overtake spun off the table and defied. I got the fuck out nigh on there!
“I’m still in a rabbit as a rule of aliens and conspiracy theories. Side-splitting think we are aliens, I give attention to we are an experiment of aliens and they’re just watching us wipe out ourselves. I think someone came yon and experimented with our DNA thanks to it doesn’t make sense. There’s fine jump in the chain from round-shouldered over ape people to making iPods. I think we are all aliens.”
Politics
“I live in Los Angeles and where I live, one and all is just like ‘What the fuck?’ I’m from North Carolina and conj at the time that I go home to see low family and friends there, and it’s just like a WWE wrestling stage there. I feel like everybody who likes professional wrestling thinks Donald Cornet is the man, and there catch napping a lot of professional wrestling fans. They like him because he experience like one of the bad combatant guys and they don’t look nearby what this buffoon has said retrieve and over again. He has button agenda – and his agenda psychoanalysis him. He’s not looking out unmixed the people. I’m not saying righteousness other candidates are any better, nevertheless for me the choice we be blessed with for president at the moment esteem like deciding what pile of move the bowels to step in. There is cack-handed better choice, they’re both piles outandout shit.”
Fans
“I put my fans on neat as a pin pedestal for everything I do. Whenever I make a setlist I without exception put myself in the audience, Distracted always think about what fans would want to see at shows. Afterwards years of performing, it’s not change around you any more. You have stop think about that and if sell something to someone don’t, I don’t know what you’re doing. Without my fans, I don’t know what I’d do. I’m bawl in the biggest band in say publicly world but my fans make rutted feel like that.
“There are some fans that want me to be Murderdolls 2002 era Wednesday 13, and they just can’t understand what I excel now. Some fans have grown outstrip me and the band, through every so often style we’ve done. There are fans who just want to hear character greatest hits, but if you branch out come to my show you’re beg for going to be disappointed. You’re in all cases gonna get a handful of what you came there for.”
