      That kid has already heard all of that language, has the internet to see how shitty people are being lately and probably knows what a mushroom trip is. At first I was like really? But then I realized Matt was treating him like a peer and I respect that.

      i'm sure he's more subdued when they first meet and set up the interview, then he turns it on for the camera so it catches people off guard. Nardwuar is the same from what's ive heard. Henry Rollins called him out on it during the "soup can" interview

I'm just an uncool old guy who takes everything for what it is. The friend hooked me up with the COMMUNION album and I have enjoyed the journey with Matt and co. Since. I love it, they keep kicking my ass with every release, but to me "METAL" is not a dirty word, I have no shame in declaring that I love metal. Keep it up.
