Yeah. It's a shitty feeling when you make up a kick ass song, play it live at a house show, go home, and by the time you get home, there's a pirated version of it recorded on a f*ckin' cell phone that everyone already has. Even though we were selling our album for two bucks.

What'd you used to do?
Lead guitarist for a local Deathmetal band I started since I was thirteen.

I only download albums temporarily so I can see if I like the album. If I enjoy it, I buy it, since the musician deserves my money for giving me music I enjoy.
That's good. I don't judge, really. All my friends steal/download hundreds of dollars of music every week, and I leave it as is. I'm proud that I've bought every cd I own, over 18,000 spread out between three garages, my room, my friend's dorm and my other friend's apartment. I always find my song, and I've filled up six 30gb ipods that I switch around.

Oh, like that. Never really suffered from that. I mean, I'm from the Netherlands, we play only a couple of shows a year, our fanbase is pretty much friends and family and so on. We did record some stuff, but as I said, there wasn't really a market for it, and we didn't intend to sell it for much money anyway.
Yeah, that's pretty cool. We were thirteen at the time, we wanted fame, it really b*tchslapped us when we started gettin' screwed over not just by fans, but by club owners underpaying us.

Is that like dethklok deathmetal or more generic all that remains deathmetal?
If I had to classify it, I'd call it more Experimental than straight forward deathmetal. We had the heavy vocals, but we still had trumpeters and a ggirl on sax, with punkmetal bridges/choruses.
