In other words:

Really? I had no idea that 1981 could be considered "Late 80s". Perhaps the Telegraph only counts time from the ascendenscy of Margaret "Milk Snatcher" Thatcher to the cabinet, some bizarre form of a "Year Zero" calendar.

Maybe there wouldn't be so much nonsense journalism if the man would actually talk to some journalists, hmmm?

Possibly, but what's he going to say? The question and answers are always the same:

1. No I'm not a goth
2. No I don't care what people who come to the concerts wear
3. I'm a lot taller in real life
4. You'll have to ask the record company about that
5. The new album will be ready when it's ready
6. Lemmings III - The Quickening
7. About 10 o'clock this morning
8. Last night, with your mum
9. Mine's a Guinness
10. Weetabix

I'm sure if he agreed to a well moderated interview on this forum he would get many questions no one's bothered or dared to ask him before.

i wouldn't bank on it.

That's a pretty big "IF". Tell you what - you get him to agree to the interview, and I'll come up with the questions.

And the MM pic looks like the The Mouth of Sauron in ROTK.

There seems to be a lot of made-up "factoids" in that article, not just about Eldritch.

I thought he was still sleeping on the office floor?

In a wooden box, in a crypt, attended by a legion of the black-clad undead who await his bidding (according to the NME).

rather than a small, smelly room with drawn curtains, in a single bed with a wobbly headboard, a grotty mattress, and surrounded by boxes of unsold tshirts...?

which was how i always imagined it.
