During  a 2018 interview with Rock And Roll Fables Hickey describes the about chemistry he has with with Kelly.

“I’ve been working with Johnny long before Type O I met Johnny probably in 1986. Type O formed in 1989, so we were already in a thrash band together. Basically, we grew up and learned everything the wrong way together and had to work it out over the course of the years. [Laughs] For me, it’s completely natural with him. We got better at it. Dude, you do something for 35 years, I hope you’re getting better at it.”
