Into Eternity’s Tim Roth Sits Down with MTV’s Metal File
Guitarist Tim Roth of INTO ETERNITY recently had a chat with MTV Metal File correspondent Chris Harris to discuss the deep personal side behind the band’s forthcoming album The Incurable Tragedy.
According to Roth, his whole world was upended by tragedy last year, when his two best friends — and roommates — both developed a rare form of stomach cancer. The disease claimed 36-year-old Dave’s life on September 21, 2006, and claimed 34-year-old Danny’s life little more than a month later.
The band decided that the riffs, melodies and material Roth had written in the wake of his friends’ passing would be used to assemble The Incurable Tragedy and that the lyrics would be conceptual in nature. They’d focus on a man’s struggle with cancer and, in essence, serve as a tribute to the Stephensons, who’d often join the band on tour and sell INTO ETERNITY’s merch.
