2026 Update: This post is past its expiration date. The primary link no longer works, and I have been unable to locate any archival record of the article due to the cruel realities of the Internet’s impermanence. (If you find a solution to the broken link, let me know!) I’m preserving this post for archival purposes.

Frank, courageous, and to the point — as always — David Eugene Edwards, the lead singer of the riveting rock band 16 Horsepower and the newer, more experimental group Woven Hand, has offered some more food for thought in a newly-published interview from the Dutch magazine OOR.

(Note: When the source article calls Edwards the “face, voice and conscious of 16 Horsepower,” I'm pretty sure they mean conscience ... not conscious. But I certainly do hope he is conscious!)

Thanks to LCJ reader Matthijs for giving me the link!
