One of my favorite horror films of the Nineties was 'Event Horizon.'

My musical tastes change every week.

I'm very fortunate to be doing the thing I do best, which is play guitar. There aren't many other things I could do.

I'm not into that whole Satanic thing. It's just something to fall back on if you don't have much imagination. Singing you fiftieth song about having lunch with Satan--I'm not into it. It's silly.

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.

I didn't want to fall into the trap of competing with all these other great guitar players. I just want to sidestep the whole thing and get out of the race.

I went through a whole blues period in the Nineties, and that had some influence on 'Load' and 'ReLoad.'
