But when I cut off my hair I even had friends not recognize me.

I am a vegan out of my love and respect for animals, as well as respect for myself.

I just heard a story from someone the other day where somebody was beaten up by Christians for wearing one of our shirts. Of course, that's a very Christian thing to do.

The people who send us fan mail written in blood say the nicest things, so it doesn't freak us out too much.

Personally I have my own political views and being straight-edge I'm happy to talk about that, but the music that always meant the most to me, was more emotional.

As you get older you will gain a bit more control over everything. Don't let anyone, even your parents, break you. Find good people who care about you and surround yourself with just them. If you can't find them at first, find good music and fall into it, let it hold you until they come. I truly hope you enjoy the new record.

I can't think of anything that people probably wouldn't already have heard of.
