about

For as long as I can remember, I’ve always been fascinated by horror. Horror is one of the few genres who dares to go one step further, beyond the limits of what’s allowed. It feeds on people’s fear, no matter how absurd some of the scenarios might be. Home invasion, invasions from outer space, masked murderers, haunted places, devil worship, the living dead, cannibals, nature strikes back, monsters, found footage - Terror has no shape (to quote the tagline from The Blob). There’s something for everyone. Horror, at a safe distance, that makes you loose your breath for a while - behind the pages of the book or in front of the tv on the sofa.

It’s been written songs based on horror movies and books many times throughout the years but as far as I know there’s been no artist who exclusively based all his/her songs on the genre. I might be wrong though but no matter what, horror is nothing that you can claim your own. There’s no one who can decide what is and what is not horror or what artform that characterizes the concept. Just like with so many other things and feelings, it’s individual.

The first song I wrote was Children of the Corn, based on Stephen King’s short story and all of you who watched your fair share of horror movies or/and read your fair share of horror novels will probably get the origin of He Who Walks Behind The Rows. If not, maybe it’s time to visit the children in Gatlin, Nebraska.

The fourteen songs on my album The Lucky Ones Died First are all based on horror movies that have a special place in my heart. Even though many of the movies may never get the recognition they deserve, I recommend them all. Who knows? Maybe this album will be your introduction to the glorious world of horror movies.
