Personally, I would never use sexuality or looks as a selling point.

We can do many different things as a band. But that doesn't mean we should do that. If we did all we're capable of, it doesn't necessarily mean we'd be writing better songs. None of us are huge fans of bands that seem to go, 'OK, I'm gonna sing for no reason and then scream for no reason just because I can.'

For me, my 'will to power,' I guess, is just to live a positive life and spread positivity as much as possible to other people and other living beings and hope that with whatever audience I have for my voice, I can actually do some good in the world.
Alissa White-Gluz The Agonist -
Some people are really surprised that I can sing different ways.
Alissa White-Gluz The Agonist -
I want to help everyone.

Playing with my sister - we always had musical instruments lying around the house.

I love doing clean singing, which is one of the main things that drives me back to Kamelot all the time.

I do think image is important in a band, because when I go see a show, I want to see a show; I don't want to just listen to the music.

Women in general have to think about certain things that men don't - like being safe in the street at night or something.

I don't want to die. I can't wrap my head around the concept of death because I'm totally atheist. There's nothing after life in my head, whether that's right or wrong.

I think that metal has always been, in my opinion, the most passionate form of music, and it only makes sense to actually be passionate about what you're saying when you're delivering music to people, whether it's through an album or for a live show.

We don't follow trends; I don't think we even set trends. We just do our own thing. We just do what we love. That's why Arch Enemy sounds like that.

I work out a lot. I started to work out on the road as much as I can, but I work out a lot at home to keep myself in good shape.

I have a hard time writing happy things. I really just don't find it that interesting for me personally to write about that.
Alissa White-Gluz The Agonist -
The way I see it, I am lucky to be alive and well, and I only wish the same for others.

For some reason, people don't want to see a girl onstage. Whether it's a girl or a guy, if you like the music, who cares?

I've worked as a singer in metal bands for over ten years now, so I've definitely kind of put in my time building that underground family, that underground, loyal fan base.
Alissa White-Gluz The Agonist -
I really like writing poetry and lyrics because it's one thing where I give up control. I don't feel like I need to be in control of it. I just sort of let it happen, and then I know when it's done. I know when it's finished.
Alissa White-Gluz The Agonist -
Touring, it's really difficult to actually make a band work, and I think that's why there's so few bands that do work, actually, 'cause there's so much that goes into it.
