Fearless, Deliberate and commanding of respect, we're grateful to Mick for his time in answering a few of our questions about his songs and his project. Hello and thanks for answering the interview for our blog today. We usually like to start off by asking for a brief background for the readers that might not be familiar with a particular band. Would you kindly do so? I hail from the metal capital of the world-Birmingham, England. In the past, I had Black Sabbath’s management for two years and Diamond Head’s for ten years. In that time, I released two albums with my then band, Adrenalin Kick. We toured with such bands as Judas Priest, Almighty, Wildhearts, Wolfgang, Mind Funk and more. Throw some German festivals in the mix. This is my brand-new industrial metal dance project, Beautiful www.peek-a-boo-magazine.be - 22 - Freakin Weirdo. The world is full of Beautiful Freakin Weirdos and we have a voice. It’s a movement for all the caring crazy heads out there who just love life and just want to get on with it with as little drama and bullshit as they can; real people with real lives and good hearts and souls. The latest release is the single, “I Am Fire.” What kind of genesis did the song have to go through before you were happy with the final product? “I Am Fire” was one of those songs that just organically popped up from nowhere. I had spent the day in the studio recording another song and was going back in for a final mix the next day.While lying in bed at night, I had the idea of “I Am Fire” come into my head. So I scrapped the other song and recorded “I Am Fire”. It was a great decision and as random as it gets. I swear by the studio I have used for a long time, so the end product is never an issue.
