THE ORIGINAL ENGLISH VERSION OF ANGELSPIT"s INTERVIEW IN ITALY'S RITUAL MAGAZINE (Issue 36)
RITUAL: First of all I'd like to inform you that in our 2007 readers poll you won as Best New Band and Best Debut Album. The funny thing is that Angelspit had at the same time many votes in the “worst” category too! This shows something that happens often: the so-called “image band” divide the audience, some love them, others loathe them…
ANGELSPIT: We’d rather be hated than considered mediocre.

"Increasingly, we are becoming slaves in a First World Global Engine that just grinds up the workers. These workers then go home and lust over a big plasma screen - they go online and *click*, they buy it….and thus the problem is perpetuated by those who are enslaved to it.
