What I love about Blink-128 is that we write catchy melodies with dark lyrics.

I really enjoy helping a band form their sounds and ideas from initial spark to completed album. Being a producer is different in that, at the end of the day, it is not my art. It's THEIR art, THEIR ideas, THEIR message.

I think that breaking into the mainstream - it was just the right cycle of music for us in Blink-182. People were kind of over the boy-band, pop-princess, manufactured sensibility, and were excited for guitars and angst and energy and enthusiasm, which is our thing.

I don't really have any secret shames. If I like an artist, I like them. Nothing to feel embarrassed about.

Why do scuba divers fall backwards off a boat? Because if they fell forwards they'd still be in the boat.

There is nothing more awkward and more laughable than a naked dude with his wiener flopping.

The strongest human emotion is probably love. I think it's universal. I think that across language and country and time and everything else, probably love.
