I don't really like to play live. I don't like to be on stage. I feel very self-conscious.
Peter Steele
Image
I don't believe in, and I am a devout non-believer, in playing new songs live if the subjected and pathetic crowd has not heard them before because I consider it like mass psychosis and genocidal.
Peter Steele

I think I've changed a lot as a person

Base not your joy on the deeds of others. For what has been given can be taken away.

If I wasn't bound to Brooklyn, due to my own personal reasons like taking care of my mother and the fact that this is where the band is based, I would probably move to Iceland.
Peter Steele

I had hit a critical period in my life, where I changed very much as a person. I consider the person I used to be, dead, and I'm glad that he is. Insecure, frightened, confused, much like a lot of people I know today.

Have faith that when bad things happen to you, I belief in an after life, it is better to suffer here on Earth than what awaits you. That is why I pray for pain, and I get it. I do.
Peter Steele
Image
I also like to eat very much, so I like all different types of foods.
Peter Steele
Image
I'm a big fan of the effects of alcohol.
Peter Steele
Image
It's bad poetry executed by people that can't sing. That's my definition of Rap.
Peter Steele
Image
Sometimes, I write '60s or '80s style pop songs.
Peter Steele
Image
I used to try to run five miles every other day, which I worked up to and I was doing it, but I was subjected to my own thoughts for forty minutes without any sensory input, and I couldn't stand what I thought.
Peter Steele
Image
I don't like the human race in general. We are the only species who hunt for sport, who kill due to emotional need.
Peter Steele
Image
I like to put on hardcore when I have to clean my apartment, which I hate to do, but it's motivational. I like old heavy metal when I'm outside working on my car. Music has definite functions for me.

I was fine, until I was born. And it's been downhill ever since.
