If there was a simple ethic for the band, it was that we want to be able to do whatever we want to do.

It's important for people to talk and get beyond the wall of Facebook and social media.

I'll come in with a string of riffs and direct the musical ideas. But you still need a band and their input to make the ideas come alive. You can't underestimate band chemistry.

Calm, open debate, and logical thought drive strength to its maximum effectiveness.

We're the worst band in America... That makes us the best.

Personally, I think Jesus would like better bands.

I think a spiritual journey is not so much a journey of discovery. It's a journey of recovery. It's a journey of uncovering your own inner nature. It's already there.
