THE HAUNTED Frontman Says 40 Songs Have Been Written For Next CD
April 24, 2010MuchMoreMetal.com recently conducted an interview with vocalist Peter Dolving of Swedish metallers THE HAUNTED. A couple of excerpts from the chat follow below.
MuchMoreMetal.com: Is there a new THE HAUNTED album on the way? What can we expect from it? When can we expect it?
Dolving: The next THE HAUNTED album is in the making as you are reading this. We have around 40 songs right now, got the mothership set up at my house in bumfuck nowhere rural reality with nothing to disturb us but… um, nothing but maybe cows. It's gong to be epic. Danceable. Groovy. And very very arty farty metal. With this next record we are going to be taking a piss in the general direction of all the crappy 99.9 percent of generic contemporary Mr. Goatse jerks out there. Would someone just smack these tattooed dicks with their groovy metrosexual hair and neo-capitalist/fake nihilist bullshit. Christ, get a job! Go away! A haircut does not make a fucking revolution mkay? Sure, a good song doesn't either but at least it'll get you laid.
MuchMoreMetal.com: You are a member of THE HAUNTED, BRINGTHEWARHOME, and you produce loads of art and designs, how difficult is it to find the time for all of your different creative projects? Which projects are you mainly focusing on at the moment?
Dolving: I am insane. And that makes it all so much easier. I don't set short deadlines, I work slowly and very carefully, pretty much on everything at once. I don't have what other people call a life. I work. It's what I do. Oh, and I'm a pretty good single dad too. Every once in a while I call someone who digs what I dig for some really intense sex, but mostly I live my life in a "do" mode.
MuchMoreMetal.com: Will there ever be any more music from MARY BEATS JANE? Or the PETER DOLVING BAND?
Dolving: MARY BEATS JANE is dead. PETER DOLVING BAND has transmorphed into BRINGTHEWARHOME which seems to be morphing into O and it will continue like that. It's a motion. Like everything else in life. Go with the flow of the river, I mean really, why the hell waste my energy on trying to make happen what doesn't want to happen?
MuchMoreMetal.com: Will you be in THE HAUNTED indefinitely or would you again like to move on to focus your time on something else in the future?
Dolving: I have not got a clue what will happen in the future. I don't even think further than six months at a time, unless, of course, it's tour plans and working out the schedule for when I have my kids or they're with their mom.
