“I don’t know most of the people that listen to our music, though I suspect many of them probably have lots of issues. In a way, I am no different from them. I’m a troubled individual, I guess. My intent with this band has never been to glorify mental illnesses, drug abuse or self harm. Or at least I don’t think so. It’s all kind of hazy looking through the rear view mirror, but as far as I can recall, I have always seen Ofdrykkja as a window into a another reality. My reality. No matter how unfortunate it may have been, it is not something that I celebrate or wish upon anyone else, but rather, [something I wish] to capture the essence of it. The feeling.”
– Drabbad, Ofdrykkja
You want to be “metalheads” more than you want to actually listen to metal.
