People love a conflict. Artistic conflict is not like that at all. It's just wanting your own space, it's not wanting what the other person has. And we dissolved at a good time - we were very close to the top of our game.

I have no problem with the concept of financial riches, but if you need to change the person you are in order to achieve that, I think you're taking too much of a gamble with your personal happiness.

I've delved into a lot of non-musical projects. Learning new things and accomplishing things with my hands that I put aside as an adult to devote all my time to music. As I've gotten older, I've been concentrating on quality and no filler, and spending more time constructing all of the parts of music, rather than going into the studio with one or two parts and then letting the rest work itself out.

I have a lot of dislike for the business end of the music business, particularly what they call shopping for a label. It can be a real stupid thing.

I always expect there to be a new counter-culture coming up, something that would make punk look as ridiculous as punk made the hippies look.

Maybe there's something new that can document an idea quicker, but pen and paper have always been pretty handy for me.
