"his enthusiasm was amazing. We’re probably a bit of an experiment of a band for him, because I know Greg and he just loves good music. He’s trying to branch out and have more bands from different genres, but his main love is metal" - Dan Moxon (Vocalist/Keyboard From Bend Sinister) Quote from Exclaim Magazine
