Slaughter To Prevail: Bear Fights, Backlash & Russia

[@thetruechaoshuman]

Alex is awesome and it’s refreshing to see people who aren’t scared to be unapologeticly themselves

[@DistrictWitch]

ruskis for ya, they don't mess about - they're just super real

[@KytexEdits]

I don't agree with him on some things, but I'd rather have someone say what they really think than try to weasel their way out of responsibility for their own opinion. Also, he IS slaughter to prevail, unlike CJ who wasn't even a founding members, so he's not going anywhere lol.

This whole hour of listening to Alex made me respect him so much. Insane vocalist Amazing work ethics Bad childhood Strong beliefs Respectful human being Attention seeker Truthful And hilarious. Alex is the type of person we need in our lives because our society isn't as respectable as it used to be. I can even admit that the internet has rotten my brain and changed my perspective of life in lots of ways and made me soft mentally and physically.

Great interview! I think people often interpret Alex's "I don't care" as "I hate you" when really he means "I'm not bothered by & don't feel the need to make that my life's work." Love all the laughs here.

[@SirTheoTheWhite]

I respect how Alex chooses to live his life with integrity. It truly is the backbone of who you are as a person and should not be compromised for any reason. Hearing him speak about his past and who he chooses to be in his adult life deserves respect. I look forward to the opportunity to see these guys live and hopefully meet them in person. T

Just noticed from this interview Alex has what is called "Boxers Ear" especially on his left ear. Meaning he has been in a ton of fights and hit so many times in that one ear that the cartilage is permanently swollen and even disfigured. It's not as bad as some professional fighters but, definitely an indication he either loves to fight for fun in a ring or has been a ton of scraps over the years. Some boxers have it so bad their ears look like a huge ball on the side of their head.

This may be my favorite interview that has ever been recorded. I love this man, the music he is a part of, and everything he stands for. It makes sense to me that we are the same age, hold a lot of the same views, and are from, roughly, similar areas of our respective countries. I was always into metal, that's basically it for the less obvious differences. I also thought it would be a good idea to scar my face when I was young. Also from a small town, a couple of hours from the nearest large city. 30. Haven't looked up when Alex was born. I have more grey hair than he does, pretty sure. I do have far less tattoos, but I'm kind of his American doppelganger... I'm starting to feel like one of us is a clone...
