Our music's kind of about taking something ugly and making it beautiful.
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.
When power ballads come back, we'll get big hair again.
Part of the healing process is sharing with other people who care.
I can sing fine and I can play guitar fine, but put 'em together and it becomes a thoughtful effort.
In '98, I locked myself in my house, went out of my mind and wrote 25 songs. I rarely bathed during that period of writing; I sent out for food, I didn't really venture out of my house in three or four months. It was a hell of an experience. The album is an overview of birth to now.
