Meelhuysen, Vincent: Introduction (PDF) (”If a band cultivates and worship death than it’s death metal, no matter what kind of music they play. And ‘cultivating’ death doesn’t mean to think it’s funny or being into gore, but I mean being able to kill just because you hate life.”) The Encyclopedia of Dutch Black Metal. August 2009.

Grow, Kory: Web-Exclusive Interview: Darhtrone’s Fenriz, part 2! His Thoughts on ’Translivanian Hunger’ and Hip (”In the past you’ve talked a little about watching Mayhem’s Euronymous and Thorns’ Snorre Ruch develop the black-metal style of playing without palm muting. – – We had little part in that. I didnt watch ’em do it, I just heard Euro tell me about it, and we could hear the results ourselves on Mayhem’s Live in Leipzig tape and the Thorns rehearsal from June 1991. I think you told it just fine, better than me anyway. I can’t reproduce others’ stuff. I make it myself or shut up. Anyway, those kinds of riffs became the new order for a lot of bands in the ’90s and onwards, and I, of course, got sick of it rather quickly. In 1994 it was over for me; ’95 was definately boring the hell out of me. Also then, the hi-fi idiots started doing it; it had way better feeling when it was lo fi, and up to 1993 black metal was only lo-fi. There was not one black metal release with plastic modern sound up until then. So I liked it better in the ’80s, when the people copying the early ’90s style, which was of course a product of the ’80s, that was when the ’90s began. Daft.”) Revolver. 14.1.2010.
