I had to run away from home and I left a horrible fucking situation because of that tattoo. This will be record that other artists judge us, as well as themselves, on once they hear this," he claimed. A post shared by dezfafara dezfafara on Apr 20, at am PDT.

I'm scared for you in life. When I got my chin done, I remember Rob Zombie making a statement to my wife, who was just my girlfriend at the time. You know? He's the norm. Dez: Pretty insane. I record a song that is probably the most personal song I've ever recorded. I'm probably the most private guy in this industry, I totally chose the wrong fucking job.
I like narf out around more than four people, I feel socially awkward. It's We get both of the records done. I feel like, great, here's what we're going to do. We're going to stagger these releases. We're going to go on tour for three years straight.
We're going to do the world twice. And all of a sudden, we have to flee our house with our two dogs, three cats from wildfires. We ended up coming home because of the fine work that those people did. They put their life on the line actually because we live in a valley. And if the winds would have picked up, everybody fighting that fire, would've probably fucking died.
So we come home, we come home and I go, okay, cool. We're done. We survived it. We've got a double record. We're going to tour for two years. Let's go. And we find out that my wife has cancer and has to have multiple surgeries all at once. I tear everything down, the family gets behind her like an Italian family does. We go into January, I tell everyone around me, we've got to pandemic coming and it's going to shut down the United States.
Everybody's going to be forced to stay home. Of course, everybody thought I was insane. Like, I'm sorry. That's never going to happen. Then we're in riot mode and cities burning. And here's where we are. Dez: I'll tell you this—it's not a fantastic business position to put yourself in releasing a record during the pandemic.
I saw 50 bands pull their records, and I decided to save me in life. Music saved my life, literally. So I was like, you know what? Let's make the people move. It's not a great business move.
It's not a great monetary move. Let's release in the middle of the fucking pandemic because this is when people need music.
This is when I'm getting personal anyways. People can have dialogue with each other on social media or whatever about the different tunes. I'm talking clearly in the first single about being socially distant my whole life and look what's going on. And I was like, look, we gotta release. Oddly enough, I wanted Volume Two to come out first cause that's my baby. But it's been insane. I want people to remember one thing that I made the bureaucratic people's choice to release an album right now in a time when it's not going to monetarily benefit the fucking label or myself or my career, to be honest.
Dez: I'll tell you why, it's because of that mentality that we did a double record. No longer can metal live in the world of releasing a record every three to four years. That's way too long. So for me it was like, look, let's go in with a hard work ethic, let's write over 30, 35, 40 songs.
Let's go on the road for three years straight. Let's do the world twice. Let's come off, let's take a year, let's go back in and let's keep this thing going. Let's break the trend of, I release a record every three, four, five years in metal. Dez: I got some terrible news this morning talking to a bunch of agents and managers that touring will absolutely not happen this year.
I'm hearing that festivals overseas are possibly not going to happen until Fall , if at all. Dez: No, this is where you get creative. I'm going to do a video for every song. I'm not releasing two singles and then a record. I'm releasing five singles and then a record. No one's ever done that. I'm the first one to go fuck it. I'm going to put my head on the chopping block here.
I've heard the record. There's another five, six tracks here. This is like a groundbreaking thing in my own fucking head, but now I'm seeing videos as something different, right? So the first three videos had to be without the band in them. Which then you're releasing music, which is art. Now you're releasing these little mini-movie art pieces as the video instead of, you know, spending five hours like fucking Milli Vanilli sitting there banging your head, trying to look like you're actually playing the song.
Now when I see videos and I see bands in videos trying to act, badass like they're playing their song it's fucking a joke to me.
Dez: I think we need to adapt or die at this point. We need to make changes to the way we release music, how we release art. Doesn't it seem stupid to watch a band performing in their video when you knew they took eight hours to make sure they got the perfect shot over there.
It seems ridiculous. I'd rather see mini-movies based upon their art. Look at the wall. We have these four cats and two of them just passed away, they were around 21 years old. They were brothers. She got a portrait tattooed by this guy, Drew Babcock and when you look at her arm, it actually looks like someone rubbed a photo on her arm.
