I tried to play bass in a punk band once, and it was an absolute disaster. I can’t play anything. I don’t know what it is.

I idolised bands like Pearl Jam and Smashing Pumpkins, who wanted to reach as many people as they could.

I don't want to be known for anything other than writing songs.

I think any branding for me is band-related. It's really weird to get used to the exposure, because I am a naturally introverted person, and I'm not exactly social. Occasionally I can get comfortable enough to talk, but I spend a lot of my days not talking, especially when I'm at home and not on tour.

I try and get about eight hours of sleep every single night. And I like to think that I drink more water than anyone, ever.

Eventually, out of sheer will of never wanting to get a job or go to college, I found my way into doing music full-time.

If I wasn't a musician I'd probably be like a meth addict.
