Well, I love Pink Floyd, so I wouldn't be offended by it. I only intentionally robbed them three or four times.

One album has absolutely nothing to do with the other.

I lean towards traditionally what people would consider the more negative side of life.

Slow, Deep And Hard was a great album, even though it was probably our least selling record.

I just want to focus on one thing at a time.

Being in a band is far more than playing an instrument. It's surviving. It's getting an album together.

I think the fact is that World Coming Down was just a really hard album for people to deal with.

We're from New York, so we have a decent following.

We don't pump out albums eight months apart from each other.

We're not the millionaires that people think when they see busses.

We do do such a variety, especially if you consider all five records.

We'll look at a bunch of deals that are being offered to us, and we decide where to go and continue on I guess. It's not too early to start considering our options with other labels.

We seem to do better in the studio than we do in a live environment.

We still have a very good core following, and the shows have been almost one hundred percent sold out.

The World Coming Down tour was around four years ago, and other than the wear and tear we've all sustained in the last four years, nothing much has changed.

My tastes lean toward the more negative, angry and eclectic.

In regards to the reaction to Life Is Killing Me, I would say that I'm never happy about anything.

I was for a minor amount of time but I was probably a better pianist at 15 than I am now.

To compare the albums is like trying to compare apples and oranges.

So right off, I'm going to have to say that a lot of people have been comparing Life Is Killing Me to World Coming Down, and I think a lot of those people equate art and sales figures, and I don't do that.

I definitely have favourites in terms of albums.

We think that we have great potential but never reach it.

Like all of us, we have pretty serious mood swings.

I do my job in Type O Negative.

I think that most artists are leaning towards fragile idiots.
