As most of you reading this know, Keith was killed last summer in a biking accident. I must say that I was personally shocked to hear of this news and I was saddened by the death of such a young and talented artist. At the time, the book was being canned as well, and so, I really never thought this interview would ever see the light of day. But….here we are.

I must admit at the outset that I really had mixed feelings about sitting down to transcribe the entire interview. It took me 4 hours just to transcribe from the tape and I have to say that it brought back some memories. More or less, I didn’t want to be taken back to a certain era. Yet, for some reason, it kept nagging me to no end. I felt that this interview was probably his last interview and I felt that it would be a shame that I would be the only person to ever hear his side of the story about Carnivore. So…..again…here we are.

I assure you that you will enjoy this interview. Keith is brutally honest in this interview, and he’s certainly blessed with his own unique brand of humor. I’m actually grateful to God that I finally got the "bells" to do this! This interview is for the fans of both Carnivore past and present as well as to Peter Steele and the present members of both Carnivore and Type O Negative. Much thanks for the great music!

Most of all, this is obviously for you Keith! Thanks for having been the first to give me a chance when I was all green and full of dreams that well….thus far never came to be. That’s life!
