EYEHATEGOD Vocalist MIKE IX WILLIAMS On 30th Anniversary Of Take As Needed For Pain - "It’s The Album Where We Found Our Sound"
The Pitch: How does Take As Needed For Pain sound to you 30 years later?
Williams: "It still sounds great to me. It’s the album where we found our sound. We did an album before that, which is recorded pretty crazy-sounding. It’s really primitive. Not that Take As Needed For Pain is some well-produced thing, but we found our sound. We were learning how to write songs better, and we found what Eyehategod is supposed to be. There are always things, when you look back on album, that you could change, but I really wouldn’t change anything on any record, because our albums are like photographs of an era, of the band at that time."
The Pitch: You’ve said before that you don’t see Eyehategod as a metal band. Why do you think that label has stuck?
Williams: "Because journalists would call us that in the past, and because of our association with Pantera. We toured with them back in the ‘90s, and Phil Anselmo has always been a fan and a friend. But I think it’s just laziness on journalists’ parts. We’re not metal, but we’re not punk either. My part in the band leans more toward the punk rock side. I got into punk in 1978. I was a twelve-year-old boy getting into the Sex Pistols, so that’s still with me. I still love that stuff."
The Pitch: Eyehategod is known for its nonstop touring. How has constantly being on the move informed your perspective on life?
Williams: "Traveling, to me, is knowledge. I wouldn’t be the person I am today if I hadn’t traveled as much as we have, and I still love it. I don’t see myself settling down at any point in the near future. We want to keep doing this band until we can’t anymore. We’ve always said we’d do it until it wasn’t fun, but we’re still having fun."
