I think it's fantastic when the young enrage their elders. I really do believe that if it's too loud, you are indeed too old, and that if it has been standing for too long, it needs a thorough inspection.

I'm disappointed by bands left and right, every day.

I have been an XL fan of Devo since I was in high school in the 1970s. Their records only sound better with time.

My mother, a very eclectic listener, had the first Doors album and gave it to me when I expressed interest in the band. It was one of the first records I ever had. As the years passed, the babysitters who used to look after me would bring their Doors albums to the apartment, and that's how I got to hear their later work.

For many years, I tried to make New Year's resolutions. I made lists and shot for great heights: I would show altruism and exert moral strength, patience and all those other great attributes.

If some band sucks, you're going to have to find out about it for yourself, because I don't have the interest in issuing warnings.

Adolescence is a plague on the senses.
