Some of our stuff ends up looking too corporate. I'm going to be a lot stricter from now on.

CDs, too. Totally corporate. They look real cheap and soulless and they don't smell of anything.

When I write a song, it's all about the riff - the riff first, then the words come later.

I need the money. People don't understand how little money you make in a band.

Rock stars wanting to write is even worse than wanting to act in movies, right?

For me, it's all about The Dubliners by James Joyce. I love The Dead.

I used to have a sort of spiky haircut and it just feels better to have short hair again.
