It's good to have certain restrictions sometimes, but it's definitely more fun to play really loud, with distortion.

I enjoy having some boundaries to work within. That's why I generally don't like alternate tunings and stuff like that. I like the boundaries of regular tunings.

It's harder to play drums than guitar, physically. I'm always kind of on the edge. I guess that's how I play everything: on the edge of my ability.

People have to do what they want to do.

I've always worn earplugs, but I'm sure my hearing's not great.

I prefer cynical people. Nice guys grow on trees.
