"I don’t consider our lyrics to be at all gruesome. To me, they’re more absurd and funny than nasty. You read the lyrics and they’re comical. We’re all fans of ‘70s horror movies like The Vault Of Horror and The Crypt Of Horror. They were morality tales, but also had a rich vein of gallows humour running through them. And we were also influenced by the Pan Book Of Horror Stories book series – that’s the way I see our songs. [...] We’ve never gotten any negativity from those in the medical profession for our lyrics or artwork. I’ve met a lot of nurses, doctors and people from the medical world, and they are always positive about what we do."
