"cartoon goth scene"

Cool ... ... a nice long interview and quite informative with a pretty selection of photos documenting the flow of the times ... ...

Gotta read it again ... ...

Phantastic
Love it!

Glad he's doing well for himself. Great interview!

Lovely interview - thank you, Mark!!

I would love to hear Von on why he never went anywhere with the 1995 demos. The obvious answers were (a) he thought they sucked; (b) he'd changed his mind about whether the broad masses were really hankering for an Eldritch/Marx collaboration; (b) he'd started writing with Pearson by then and was more enthusiastic.

From what I gather from old interviews he says he never intended to do it and didn’t ask for any demos. Well not in so many words, but that was my interpretation. I remember a Brazilian journalist saying he was supposedly working again with Gary Marx, whereas he replied something like “supposedly is the key word. Not supposed by me.”

Thanks indeed, that was lovely to read.

I don't think he realises how many people would fall over themselves to give him money, blood or their firstborn for that jokey line-up he quips about.

Cocteau Twins were offered £5 million back in 2006/7 but Liz pulled out at the last minute.

I have to say, he’s a class act. Even when he’s given the opportunity to slag off Von, he doesn’t do so. In my beloved Texas, I think we’d call him a “hoss.”

Fascinating stuff, thanks for sharing here!

a great interview. made me laugh out loud a few times . one of the many things i love about Mark/Gary is there is no bitterness or backbiting. a truly decent bloke.

A great read - thank you

Great guy, still my favourite band member. And a very entertaining and informative interview.
