I let myself be wrapped in melting plastic and left naked under the klieg lights for four hours with absolute disregard for the FRAGILE label on my box. All for the love of Mistula.
(And Lugosi has the nerve to call me a slacker? That doofus!)
I hope Mike Fallarme, the man behind Mistula’s most elaborate and painful photo shoots, reaps the rewards of my suffering. Please vote for his entry to the JPG magazine photo competion, Ahon.

Ahon (Filipino for “Rise”) was originally shot for the Baptized video. How can I forget that shoot?

Thank you very much!

Writer Nicole Limos sent us 33 questions for the Sense&Style feature on Mistula, but not all of them made it on print. So we’re posting the interview here for you – uncut and complete with Lobo’s licentious remarks about Manx’s boobs.
1. Please tell me about your personal and professional background.
LUGOSI: I am Bella Lugosi, but everyone just calls me Lord Lugosi. I don’t know why. I play the drums and write songs for Mistula and decide the overall direction of the band. Of course I welcome inputs from them as well. When I’m in the mood.
UNO: I’m Uno, ECD – Executive Creative Doll – for an advertising agency by weekday, rockstar on weekends, and extra luggage on holidays.
MANX: My name’s Manx Minuet, and I’m the lead guitarist, occasional vocalist of Mistula. I also co-write the songs with Lugosi. Mostly, I put melodies to his words. Porn films? Been there, done that. Now I’m just Mistula’s six-string sex siren – a role I like very much.
LOBO: My name’s Lobo, former leader of the British street gang called Lycantroops. I used to make a living in the underground fighting dens in London until I became the rhythm guitarist for Mistula.
MANX: Notice his sexy British accent.
