Bent interviewed by Sorgenfri

[ThorEgil]

The latest issue (April 2012) of Sorgenfri (the local "Big Issue") has a large interview with Bent on Life, the Universe and Everything – over three pages + three pages of portraits.

Pick it up if you happen to pass by Trondheim these days.

So did anyone scan this?

[supernaut]

and translate? :mrgreen:

[ThorEgil]

Well, I guess the sales period has ended by now so here goes…

As for translation of the whole thing – I've read about Italian black metal fans studying Norwegian in University to be able to understand the lyrics of songs… :wink:

Thanks!

Fantastic, thank you!

Thanks a lot for the scans! Great portrait of our favorite bassplayer!

Some quick cliff notes for those not fluent in Norwegian: There's not so much MP content in this (only the first page), as it's more a portrait of Bent and his own views & opinions. I was actually surprised to see him answer so many questions about his own personal life and on society in general. That's almost a first.

Funniest quote: "I have something akin to a masters degree in running a band. And I've almost got a PHD in non-compromising 'dængrock' after 23 years of Motorpsycho and The International Tussler Society." :lol: Not sure how 'dængrock' would be translated to English, something like 'pounding rock', I guess…

Thanks!
