Former TIGERTAILZ vocalist Steevi Jaimz is featured in a new interview with SleazeRoxx.com. An excerpt is available below.

Sleaze Roxx: Should we be reading anything into the album title - My Private Hell - what made you decide to call it that?

Steevi Jaimz: "Yeah, you can and should read into the title. It sums up my state of mind perfectly with all the trials and tribulations whilst making it. We were finishing recording the last two tunes on the record, and whilst I was putting the lyrics down for one of the last tunes My Private Hell came up, it fit the song perfectly, and as it happens the whole mood was set up in it too. It's one of my favorite tracks on the record as well."

Sleaze Roxx: Am I right in saying the album actually sold out?

Steevi Jaimz: "Yeah. It did sell out of the initial pressing. Not bad really, as it has had zero advertising. Even the release was ignored by every major glossy rock mag in the UK, with the exception of Rocksound. I think the likes of Classic Rock etc... were too busy putting Phil Collins on the cover or topping up Gene Simmons's ego. Maybe I shoulda' put masks on everyone, pretended to be someone I'm not and called the band Timber Hitch, I might have got acknowledged then. It's always been something personal against me in the UK ever since the notoriety I had in the '80s. Certain people still hold a grudge and live in the past I guess. I've always been real, if I don't like someone or something I let them know, fuck off with the two faced bullshit that goes on. And the only difference being back then is I used to care, now I couldn't give a fuck about those clowns. I made this record 'cos I enjoy making music, and mainly 'cos of the fans of the music I make. If they enjoy it then that's all that matters to me!"
