“I don't know if it was related to the type of music that we were doing at that time or what, but Todd Cook actually just turned to me and was like, "You know what would be a great name for a metal band? Dead Child." We talked half-jokingly that we were going to do a band. I guess as time went on, I started writing songs that were more metal sounding, and it just evolved from there. It actually started with the name first, and then the songs came second.” IfsKnowsWritingFirstsChildrenWould BeSongNamesHalfLike YouTypeBandCooksRelatedMetalsWriting SongsMetal Band Author:David Pajo
“I was young, but to me that was underground music. I had never heard anything like Venom or any of that stuff growing up in Louisville. That was sort of the only weird records I could find. All that stuff would be in the import section. And sometimes there would be some sort of goth type of stuff. But that was the stuff I was attracted to.” SometimesWould BeYoungStuffGrowing UpRecordsGrowingHeardTypeSectionsImportsGothVenomLouisvilleUnderground Music Author:David Pajo
