I love horror movies in space. I love it when the genre switches over and what was sci-fi becomes horror.

Guitar players in the nineties seem to be reacting against the technique oriented eighties.

My musical tastes change every week.

I love this pedal to death. The only way you could keep me from playing one is by chopping off my legs!

Although I'm a lead guitarist, I'd say that a good 95 percent of my time onstage is spent playing rhythm.

When I got my first Marshall amp, it was so empowering. No one ever forgets their first Marshall amp if you're a guitar player pursuing a big powerful sound. I mean, no one ever forgets their first Marshall amp.

Basically I just had to say, 'Screw everyone around me - from now on I'm just gonna play what I think is important to me and our music.' So I gave the big finger to all the current trends in technical wizardry, and just went off and did what I felt was best for the songs.
