"Get ready for everything I say here to be reported on all social media and news sites," he said at the beginning of the interview. So here we are doing our part by sharing his list to prove he was right.

When asked about his favorite album of the 2010s, the vocalist chose Pressure and Time (2011) by Rival Sons , a work loaded with blues and classic rock influences. “This album has everything they do well,” he explains, “They navigate between various styles and make it work.”

Refused was mentioned when talking about his favorite song. “Elektra,” released on the 2015 album Freedom , features “a riff that doesn’t end the way you imagined and transforms into something frenetic and incredible,” he says.
