I read this interview years ago and have been looked for it off and on ever since. Somehow I managed to find it today:
For instance, “Start the Riot,” the first track on Atari’s new disc, Burn, Berlin, Burn!, suggests that the fastest way to affect social change is through violence–an argument that makes perfect sense coming from Empire, a man who praises extremist organizations like the Red Army Faction and the Baader-Meinhof terrorists. “I think without them, everything would even be worse in Germany,” he insists. “I want every mainstream teenager to respect terrorism and risking one’s life for change. I think that’s the most important thing anyone can do–to die for change.”
From: Denver Westwood, September 4, 1997.
Meanwhile, Empire remains alive and rather well off and doesn’t seem to have initiated much change.
