Artistic expression, sex, and truth are the only things that really matter.

What I do on my solo stuff is just the most natural version of who I am, and I’m trying to represent the feelings that I’m feeling as purely as possible

I combine aspects of many styles of music and create my own musical forms by way of electronic instruments.

I don't have an extensive background in theory, but the amount of it that I've learned, I've applied, so I have a vocabulary of melodic and rhythmic relationships. And that's all theory is - it's symbols to help you identify those relationships.

Rock guitarists usually do not wish to think trains of thought about anything but their own guitar playing during a long solo, and I could not play this way if I were not able to divide my attention between my ever changing musical environment and my instrument itself.

I don't want to be on the radio. I don't want to be on Mtv.

Music is my friend, no matter where I go.
