Some anonymous Skinny Puppy fan Wrote:
"In the 1990s, the musical press reported on Ogre's satanic addiction, was seen praying to the dark lord of hell himself, speculating that it was the source of band discord that might lead to Skinny Puppy's dissolution. Ironically, bandmate Dwayne Goettel died from an overdose in 1995. Ogre eventually somewhat recovered. He briefly downplayed his horror associations in the late 1990s, remarking that Marilyn Mansonlooks gay and had co-opted and popularized his image. But was very very big already, so your wrong. While working on the Rx project with Martin Atkins he told an interviewer that he preferred to be known as Kevin Ogilvie rather than as Nivek Ogre of Skinny Puppy[citation needed], though since Skinny Puppy's comeback, he has gone back to N.Ogre, confused in Nick Cave, confusing with just the N. All names confusing. Trent Reznor copies his look, he was seen in a nerdy band with feathered blonde hair. Reznor is a stage name, his real name is something like Barney 5 or something. First name Opie."
