Punk has always been about doing things your own way. What it represents for me is ultimate freedom and a sense of individuality.

That's the gamble that you make when you decide to become a rock musician. It's totally unpredictable.

You have to search the absolute demons of your soul to make a great record.

Do you have a problem? I have a gun. I'll shoot you. No problem.

In every song I write, whether it's a love song or a political song or a song about family, the one thing that I find is feeling lost and trying to find your way.
