THE HAUNTED Frontman: 'The Music Industry Sucks'

August 13, 2007

THE HAUNTED vocalist Peter Dolving has posted the following message on his MySpace page:

"What a fucking summer, huh? It's been about as messed up as anything I ever seen. But taking it easy and not touring ridiculously hard has had its perks though. I've had time to catch up with myself after what was a pretty intense year. And I figured out I really dig kinky sex even more when I'm not buzzed on morphine, stoned or drunk. Also, it is understandably close to gardening; it takes patience and the hands (amongst other things) of an artist, and though I might not really fill all the necessary criteria for being an ARTISTE, I sure as fuck like meddling about with its disciplines. Art. Good stuff.

"On a less dirty note, I just got blasted by Thor for being too self-involved — my computer AGAIN got blown up by lightning and so it seems I have to get out of my little head and A. Fix the remains of it. B. Take the hint, I need to get out more.

"Seven months of composing and writing... fuck.

"Something I've grown pretty unwilling to do the last three months. Honestly, the only people I've seen since I got home from tour are, well, my family, the band, my friends in Narcotics Anonomous meetings and the dudes who drives the bus to town. Anyone else I've pretty much shied away from. All I've done is play guitar, write fucked up metal, mess around in my garden, hang out with my kids and stay low.

"Low.

"You know all I really want to do right now is put together an insane weird fucking record. Whether that's gonna happen or not, I don't fucking know, 'cause I feel there's so much fucking bullshit and fear surrounding everything that has to do with all this. We'll probably end doing some generic crap that Joe Shmoe can relate to and I'll end up feeling like a traitor.

"The music industry sucks. Fuck everything."
