I'd like to fly, but my wings have been so denied.

A lot of power-pop comes out of LA, a lot of speed metal comes out of New York.

I started out when I was about 12, playing drums. I started singing when I was about 15.

I'm not using drugs to get high like many people think. I know I made a big mistake when I started using this sh-. It's a very difficult thing to explain. My liver is not functioning and I'm throwing up all the time and shitting my pants. The pain is more than you can handle. It's the worst pain in the world. Dope sick hurts the entire body.

Music is the doorway that has led me to drawing, photography, and writing.

The songs are about things that we were thinking and we wrote 'em down, and when you listen to 'em, whatever you think it's about... THAT'S what it's about!

There's no huge, deep message in any of the songs. We recorded a few months of being human.
