The Awakening Quotes


I think with The Awakening "goth" was an inevitable tag. When we started off we just gravitated towards all things dark and shiny. I think as things have developed over the years I'd prefer to refer to "goth" as one of my roots - not my sole inspiration.

I think I've written from a range of directions. As I said - I don't have a formulaic style of working. It could start with a lyric, a drum groove, piano melody, dischordinant drone - whatever... When the song calls I try to be there..

In addition, a live performance should be a larger than life place of escapism for both artist & art lover.
