Andreas "Whiplasher Bernadotte" Bergh, vocalist for Swedish deathglam kings Deathstars, is featured in a new interview with Random Goth Couple. He discusses the band's latest album, Everything Destroys You, and among other things, the budget they put aside for kilo tubs of glitter.

Whiplasher: "We're very fond of '80s music, all of us. I had a lot of Kim Wilde stuff on this album, which I can recognize (laughs). We like '80s pop music; it was a big inspiration, absolutely. Emil likes more of that music maybe than I do, so we come from different angles. Even though we've been sticking together for over 30 years we have a bit of a difference when it comes to music tastes."
