Hary Belial's (Interview)

Name : Haroon
Nickname: Hary
DOB : 12 Feb 1988
Favourite quote: People are afraid of themselves, of their own reality; their feelings most of all. People talk about how great love is, but that’s bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they’re afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they’re wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It’s all in how you carry it. That’s what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you’re letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain.
Tell us a bit about yourself Hary? 

I guess I had sucha horrible life growing up, going from place to place not knowing what I was gonna do. There was a lotta pain & anger that's coming out through my guitar playing and when you're hurt & scared for so long, the fear & pain turn to hate & the hate starts to change the world.
How old were you when you first played guitar? 

I think my mum bought me my first guitar when I was 13-14 and my fingers'd not go to the sixth string so I took off the big E and played with just five strings(laughs).
What was the first guitar you ever owned? 

I think that's Kona acoustic. The time I broke my guitar it was like a sacrifice. You sacrifice the things you love. R.I.P. Kona! See you in Hell(laughs).
