When alternative music - which is supposed to be the standard-bearer of where white rock is headed - becomes either too cute or too manufactured, that's just really not good.

I think the days of working with producers in the conventional sense are over for me.

A missive to all you metal bands, the world is totally over the rock thing. Rock is deader than it's ever been.

Your basic person wants to talk about material culture, internet culture. I think about God, cats, nature.

When you present people with things from the heart and from the soul, they make better choices: They make better choices about their bodies, they make better choices about their partners, they make better choices about the environment.

I think long and hard about what it is I'm actually trying to do, and then I kind of have to narrow my focus into that. If I don't, I'm too all over the place.

Everything about life makes me lonely.
