The Bay Area goth-punk group has just released its most ambitious album, "Decemberunderground," and has gate-crashed the malls and fast-food restaurant speakers of mainstream America with its snarling first single, "Miss Murder."

Q: Did you plan on releasing "Decemberunderground" on the totally evil date of 06/06/06? Are you into all that weird stuff?

Q: No other reason?
A: No. I just thought it would be a great birthday present. Honestly, no. It was a coincidence.
Q: So it's not true that you eat children and have sex with goats?

A: I heard recently that I used to date Patrick Swayze.
Q: In the rumor, did you cuddle together and listen to "She's Like the Wind"?
