You can have the coolest job in the world, but it only seems cool until you get sick of it.

I think metal draws dumb people. It's not exactly a thinking man's genre.

I like just having that separation between my music life and my personal life.

As convenient as that would be to make it easier to communicate with more prolific musicians, I don't want to think of music like a math equation.

It's easy to gravitate toward something negative as opposed to something positive, especially if you're an outsider.

I don't think in time signatures, and when I do, what I write is generally 3/4 or 4/4, the most basic, straightforward stuff. I think that comes from just not being a super-schooled musician.

I took music theory in high school and dropped out halfway through the semester because it was ruining music for me.
