Unfortunately we just toured the East and West coasts so we didn't run into any rednecks.

We're trying to have the band create something beautiful that hopefully one day, 20 years from now, can be picked up by a kid and hopefully have the same effect that Neil Young had on me, or Led Zeppelin or Black Sabbath.

Talking about covers, whether visually or sonically, if a particular combination of notes struck a chord in your heart in a way that you want to be a part of it by covering that song, then there's nothing wrong with it.

I have never acted in one and I'm not at all interested to do so either.

In my eyes, perfection is imperfection

Music's always been really cathartic. It's the best drug for me to get away from the everyday pressures just for a second via a good song.

Even at school I studied ethics instead of religion.
