Q: We support your art and want to help spread the word of your newest release! Some of the material on your new release, Quantos Possunt Ad Satanitatem Trahunt, is as old as 2006? What was the creative process like?
A: "Basically it was a period where I had more time to concentrate on songwriting that in the years prior to that. It was 2006, right. This coincided with that I got back some sort of a feeling that I was inspired, so to speak, and that I could be able to stand behind the music being written. As a songwriter, of course, most of my entire grown up life I have been writing music... but – allowing me to brag a bit about myself – in the periods when it just did not feel right, I believe now that I was right in my judgment on not presenting to others any half hearted crap which would in the long run destroy my personal, and what others might refer to as “artistical”, integrity. I deem it as I was right. Half the material was written in 2006, the other half during the period in which I worked on the pre-productions with Tomas Asklund prior to the recording of the album; a process which took more or less a year and a half, in which I had to relocate to Sweden from time to time."
