There was a time when beheadings were in the public mind because people around the world were getting their heads cut off for various reasons.

What bugs me are parodies - they're never as special as the original thing.

I don't think of my music as something that works well in the background. And because a lot of it isn't in 4/4, people might not like to dance to it.

I love playing the drums - I really get a lot out of it - but I don't think I'm a good enough drummer to be playing live drums on all 10 tracks on my album.

Most of the lyrics are rooted in my own experiences. But there is some sheer fabrication.

I'm a bit of a control freak, so I always appreciate being inside the nuts and bolts of the music - I don't like newer programs that paper over your cracks.

Making music is a total hassle, really.
