Most great records really start with the drums.

In my case I don't mind playing a character that irritates people or makes people question my sanity.

Do I belong in the conversation about the best artists in the world? My answer is yes, I do.

One thing I've learned to appreciate as I've gotten a little older is direct forms of communication.

The things I'm guided to do are really strange to me.

Billy [Corgan] and I used to spend quite a lot of time together in Los Angeles, when I first moved there.

If the next record is no better than Gish, then we've failed.
