I write the music, produce it and the band plays within the parameters that I set.

I think you can get the wrong impression about me from my work and think I'm always a bit down. I'm not that way at all. I'm fun-loving.

I've been the lowest low on the planet, I've been a sinner all my days. And I was living with my hands on the trigger, I had no sense to change my ways.

Nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could, for all those born beneath an angry star, lest we forget how fragile we are.

Nothing in your life is beyond redemption.

I do my best work when I am in pain and turmoil.

The more irrational of us are worried about the millennium ending - as if a date would really matter.
