Our music's kind of about taking something ugly and making it beautiful.

To me not one thing is better than anything else, I'm completely proud of everything I've written and recorded.

That's always been a dream for me, to be able to collaborate and make music with the people that inspired you to make music.

I've never been a big soloist; I just put in what needs to be there. I'm more of a rhythm player who plays lead - or tries to play lead.

You feel different every day of your life. You just have to create your own space to survive, personally and professionally.

I'm going to keep thinking about topping myself every time. I can say very confidently that Alice In Chains have done that on every record. It surprises me. I don't go in there expecting that, but I do go in there hoping for it.

Part of the healing process is sharing with other people who care.
