Mikael Kjellman (Martyrdöd)

SPB: If you could release a split with any current band (that you haven’t met), who would it be?

Kjellman: I think it's a tough one to answer, especially says bands that we haven't met. And I had the opportunity to meet with many of my favorite bands already. There are several artists that I admire as different as J Mascis, PJ Harvey, [or] Aphex Twin that I haven't met, but what are the odds, hehe?

So after pondering the question I will say Bastard Noise. I have been a huge fan of Eric Wood and co. since Man Is the Bastard and their latest stuff is just incredible. Also Eric Wood actually contacted us via myspace when we had released the Sekt LP telling us that he was a fan, but I still haven't met him in person. But props to him anyway.
