I didn't invent anything; it's all there in the culture; it's not a big mystery. I just combine my personal experience with classic cartoon stereotypes.

I don't do album covers or CD covers for groups or musicians I don't like or have no interest in.

I'm just a negative person, a deeply negative person. I see the worst aspects of everything.

There's some connection between visual images and music. But there's plenty of old records where I have no idea what the band looked like, or even what sort of context the music was played in.

I always had a sketchbook with me when I was young. I was hiding behind it, basically, hiding behind drawing because I couldn't cope with people in real life; I was very shy and very nervous around people.

The only burning passion I'm sure I have is the passion for sex.

I guess I didn't enjoy drawing very much. It was like homework.
