Erik Danielsson of Watain interview at Hellfest 2018

Erik Danielsson from Watain spoke to us at Hellfest 2018 about signing for their fans in blood, the secret to keeping the band alive for 20 years, and the recent furore about the supposed Nazi salute and Set Teitan's departure.

5:55I like how he's so assertive but polite. That's a skill alot of fucking people need.

[@strixaluco9369]

I think she appreciated that Erik took her questions seriously and took the time to answer them intelligently.

[@alasanoei]

He is so brilliant and such a gent.

[@Chief-Solarize]

It's always much more difficult for pretty young women to be taken seriously. It's very unfortunate for girls like this. I'm sure she must notice how everyone is nice in public but on the internet people's true colors show. Hayley you did fine. Thanks for the vid

[@megayorgan]

Ugly young women are taken way less seriously I can assure you that.

[@brandijohnson1326]

you did fine Haley!

[@harrypedigo]

Would it be possible to remaster the audio on this to have some more background noise?

[@matthewhatherley3020]

😂

[@reeselarry4207]

Dunno if anyone gives a shit but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times you can watch pretty much all of the latest movies on instaflixxer. I've been streaming with my gf during the lockdown xD

[@chasearjun2744]

@Reese Larry Yup, I've been using instaflixxer for since november myself :)

[@lordem4]

[@theokumlin7477]

[@shaymathiesson8235]

[@antikras666]

When European politics do black metal you get Watain.

[@predathor696]

Shes HIGH on life.

[@TERGENIS]

Helping Watain out :) Checked out the video it worked out. Mayhem need to pay the parents. Also gets his wallet.

[@TERGENIS]

Are those ski glasses ... Joakim ( Necrophobic) They were Guitar picks Set Teitan :)

[@johnmattison3050]

I went back and listened to the interview again. Still did not find any question that has not been asked before by another including the silly matter with a member making a certain salute in jest.

[@HayleyLeggs]

John Mattison Yeah, I'm sure you know better than the man in question.

[@marky2139]

Shes not very good at all Asking him about clothes come on 👙👙 Hes that polite he responded to every question....as best he could.Top fella.👍

[@horaciochapa9620]

Damn she looks hot, I like her Vampire tat ☠👹☠

[@vincebos7915]

Whats the thing on his arm

[@rp8164]

The neck of a broken condom.

[@cristinesalisbury63]

He can see his vein better for his fixes

[@Roadycore]

that was a pretty bad interview tbh. stale questions, the ones that were asked in the first place, leading, not a very lively, interruptions… the list goes on.

[@HayleyLeggs]

Out of interest, which questions would you have asked?

[@petermoes1668]

Naa it wasnt. Good interview. Liked the question about the clothes. Also the one about the nazi salut. Eric is quite a gentleman in interviews .

[@alasanoei]

@@petermoes1668 Yeah, but a bit weird how she reacted to Erik's answer with the fire burning in them. Maybe it's just me but it sounded a bit as if she didn't know what Watain is about.

[@petermoes1668]

Metalli Vegaani I agree.

[@petermoes1668]

Sinister King I am actually Dutch and here they write it somtimes with a c and sometimes with a k, haha.

[@cristinesalisbury63]

I've got the gumption to pucker up, licking my lips in front of his lips...

[@TERGENIS]

Cause they were guitar picks

[@Nightcrawl6]

he looks a bit finnished. And why the fuck he do so many interviews? isn`t it too mainstream? :) he should let his band member speak too. I wouldn`t answer this crap always

[@nmnmnm9509]

Thanks beautiful interviewer! Please remove those tattoos !

[@cristinesalisbury63]

Shes probably considering MORE tattoos, hahahaha

[@Varkhal218]

Please shut up, why the fuck would someone get or get rid of tattoos just because someone asks them to

[@xdrfetishx]

When you allow groupie wanna-be's to think they can do serious journalism,,... pathetic

[@Varkhal218]

I don't understand your issue

[@kountesskorvinae666]

He's so small and weak. Like his band.

[@loganafi101]

Usually the ones who try the hardest are in fact, the smallest

[@kountesskorvinae666]

You know what I mean then

[@alasanoei]

A bit like Dani Filth. That power and will these men have. I have huge respect for them both.

[@isabelledelon9089]

Dont fuck daintiness🐱🐱🐱de date thé tougher🐝🐝🐝

[@cristinesalisbury63]

If you can't say nice things about Eric, keep it clamped, Buddy...
