I've always liked the heavier stuff. I've always loved Tool and System of a Down, Korn and Nine Inch Nails.

I meditate. Meditation helps me.

I was - I've always been a bit of perpetual adolescent.

I've been writing songs since I was 14 years old, and that's my true love.

I get inspired at different times and in different ways.

The whole point of me doing a Christmas record and what I centered it around was the song 'Christmas with You' from the point-of-view of the soldiers in Iraq.

There will always be rock stars, but I don't know how much depth and longevity they'll have.
