“I played ‘Tilda Lee’ at a solo show. I told the crowd that it’s about a woman who turns to God because her son committed suicide. After the show, from the merch table, I see a woman crying with her husband next to her. I asked her what was wrong, and she told me that that’s what happened to them just a month ago. I knew then that the greater truth behind the song was important. Me and my family didn’t have that happen in our lives, but there’s real emotions in it that I’ve seen and experienced.” -Chris Comper

“I’m a private and quiet guy, but after talking about the project, I wanted people to understand who I am. Not just read a book about a celebrity or think it’s just all about Testament. That is obviously an important part of my life and further shaped me, but I begin the book reflecting on really early parts of my life,” said Chuck Billy.
