I like to write about things that are dark or twisted. Where the poetry seems to be is when you start in the dark and reach for the light - that's what makes it not depressing to me.

I think music is a selfish masturbatory event - for the listener, the maker, the candlestick...maker.

I've always considered myself a workaholic... The way I work, I have to turn myself upside down and hang myself by my ankles and wring myself out like a wet sweater, and I have to do that with other people, too, because I think that's where something good comes out.

I know there are some labels that put out music for art's sake, but I don't know which ones.

A homemade affair that's just in time for Halloween.

Sometimes Queens' music is dark, but somehow it's ok to deliver it with a smile on your face because thing's are still going to kick in.

I hate that sense of entitlement or the sense of business crawling into playing music.
