taken from Metal-rules.com interview to Öystein:



How did the two of you meet and end up working together?

It goes back several years, I think. He wrote me and said he was fan of the band and stuff and we just had contact via mail. Sometimes he would call me or send me some CDs, but he was a fan of the band already. It was quite a coincidence that he came to visit me just a few weeks after our previous vocalist, Simen [Hestnaes, former vocalist/bassist; now ICS Vortex in Dimmu Borgir], had quit the band. Vintersorg had no intention to join the band but we drank a beer together and kind of listened to music and stuff. We same to the point where we have the same ideas and decided that we had to work together.

Are you kidding me? The synths and organs made Quintessence badass and dark, unlike whatever the hell he was doing in Empiricism.

He wasn't shy with the keys on Quintessence. They were just further back in the production, so that the guitars were the prominent instrument, as they should be.

That clap reminds me of when people are at Revivals and/or Church and people in the congregation will shout out "Praise The Lord" and everybody starts clapping.

You think I'm bitching now, wait until the next album comes out.

Unless V goes back to the old vocal style fanboys want new Borky singer! Like Sindre Nedland!
