I read in the comments that fans legitimately wanted to buy those. Talking about fan service and I had such a kick out of the April Fool's Day joke, the "Jesus is a Jerk" shirt, which I thought was fucking excellent. You know, we're not going out there in jeans and T-shirts. I mean, it's all very well asking your fans, 'would you want another live stream?' And everybody goes 'yes, yes, yes!' But that doesn't really justify the numbers in advance. It's a lot of work and I just don't know. We had to fly people in, we had to rehearse, we had to get a crew together who were available, venue, design the set. There was a lot of time consumption putting those on. I'd like to do Midian, I'd like to do Damnation and a Day, Nymphetamine, etc. But I think we handled them well and yeah, it was good fun to do that and we would like to continue in that vein. It was, and a little daunting as well, because it felt near impossible singing those back in the day, and fast forward 25 years or whatever. Was that an interesting exercise going back and tackling some of those deep cuts or reexamining these songs with the lineup you have now? It must be a trip to go back to those '96, '98 era records. I'd rather see them actually in the flesh.' Maybe people will be into it. I think you probably get diminishing returns because people will be like, 'yeah, okay, they're doing the whole of Midian and they have a big stage show and it looks fantastic and that. I don't know how much further you could replicate that scenario. We invested a lot of time and effort money into it, and they were very successful. So that was another thing that the COVID protocols threw up was the ability for us to do a couple of live streams. Cruelty and the Beast last fall on the American tour, and I believe recently you played Dusk… and Her Embrace?

I know you guys had the chance to take on some of the classic records in full recently. There was a lockdown in place so we weren't on a curfew, but it was kind of frowned upon for people to be traveling out and about after a certain time. Fortunately the drums were done before the first lockdown happened, otherwise Martin wouldn't have been able to travel from the Czech Republic, and in fact, Ashok, who is also from Czech Republic, didn't get here until the summer. I was literally in the studio recording the album with the producer. The first half of that we spent recording. Well, we have different lockdowns … we got out to the States last September. In hindsight, was that appreciated or did you feel like saying fuck all this now, it's time to get back to doing what we do best. I think we did talk about it to a degree in our last interview, the appreciation for getting off the road and being able to embrace a bit of downtime and work on the last record.


It has these confusing like dates, timings on the back, and it didn't sound as good as the stuff they found and then re-released with "In the Doorway" as well. It's actually better than Legacy of Brutality, which was very confusing. As for Misfits, I'd probably say the reissue of Static Age. Is there a seminal Danzig or Misfits record for you? I know for a lot of people go back and forth between Danzig I and Danzig II: Lucifuge. Yeah, I've had a good relationship with him. I mean, every time I go to a show he always invites me up on stage, not on the stage but to watch from the side stage. I've been a fan, but I guess I'm sort of a friend of Danzig. This upcoming tour supporting Danzig must be pretty sweet.Ībsolutely.

I know personally as a heavy music lover you are a big Danzig fan, whether it be solo Danzig, or Misfits. Ahead of the tour launch – and before the unexpected announcement of the exits of band members Richard Shaw and Anabelle Iratni (replaced by Donny Burbage and Zoe Marie Federoff) – Filth sat down with Metal Injection for a deep dive into his love of the legendary frontman Glenn Danzig, a re-assessment of the 30 th anniversary of Cradle's 1992 demos, the prank played on fans for April Fool's with the "Jesus is a Jerk" merch, his return to acting (and a potential Cradle of Fear II?!) and much more!
