Lyrics always fall short with the amount of energy thrown into the playing. Lyrics to some extent are just the product of a singer's insecurity with singing.

It's painful to not be able to fully focus, but it keeps you fresh.

I try to drum each day. It's therapeutic.

It's really nice to have things to mail to people when they mail you things, or trade to people at shows. Something homemade, it feels... down to earth.

I feel that music is more flexible than language and your song, or "piece" is only as flexible as your least flexible component.

I don't like people feeling like they've been cheated out of their money, and I too have been caught in the back of floor shows, only to inspect the backs of necks and the mudded sounds pushing though bodies.

I actually write a lot, but mostly just daily gibberish. I am a documentation addict: "I just peed. I walked down the hallway. I dropped my pencil. I just aged a minute."
