It symbolizes the group's symbiotic marriage of darkness and light, menace and melody in their self-described �love metal� � a combination of infectious hooks, driving rhythms and passionate, crooning vocals that wax poetic about the melancholy side of love.

I really liked this interview because it was more of just having a conversation with Ville than an actual interview and really, what could he say new about Venus Doom that he hasn't said in other interviews already. And I totally agree with him about being desensitized to violence, I just thought I was that way because of the amount of horror movies I watch, so now nothing shocks me.

I tried to live on nothing but cheese pizza and beer for two years and I ended up in rehab. I wouldn�t recommend that as a diet to anybody. There�s nothing nutritious about a pizza. You get a bit of tomato sauce and a bit of cheese and that�s it.
