I was playing with the Aquabats, and then I quit to join a band called Suicide Machine in Detroit.

But really, anytime, I play on a practice pad as much as I can.

Anything that has to do with rock seems to be on the decline. There's not a lot of rock stations or MTV anymore, you just go on Youtube.

I listened a little to punk when I was younger, but it was straight edge punk. It was nothing like what is going on now, like poppy punk.

I want to keep pushing the limits for drummers and expressing myself.

I can play punk rock, and I love playing punk rock, but I was into every other style of music before I played punk rock.

With rock music, it usually revolves around the band. You go in as a band and probably take about a year to record an album. But for a hip-hop song, you can create a track and an idea with verses and choruses in a day, and get three different people on it. It seems like you're able to do more with hip-hop.
