“I got my influences from 70s bands – Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, blah blah blah.”

I like the collaborative effort of working with people.

There were dinosaur big bands, and that was great. Those were my influences.

Art is commenting on what’s going on around you in your life.

It started getting debilitating. I enjoy my music a lot better than my drugs.

He is making all of the white people scared only 3 out of 10 people really believe all the stuff that is being said by him.

It was the worst night of my life. George W. Bush was reelected, and then I knew

These idiots like Radiohead and Sharon Osbourne that are like, “Free Ozzfest!”, “Pay what you can for a record!”.

The label’s going great, because we’re not idiots. We’re not trying to sue everyone that downloads everything.

This rock thing got in the way of my teaching career.

Without intermediate artists, music is what “American Idol” decides is great or made by the very poor, because Sharon Osbourne’s made everything free.

The more you think, the more you ruin things. Art has to come viscerally; otherwise, forget it.

I’ve been given a second chance in life, and I don’t want to let a minute go by without enjoying it.

I just wanted to remind people that Ministry is actually a good rock band. We can do some party stuff, too.

His statement was, “We’re going to the same place, except you’re taking a taxi, and I’m driving my own car.” That’s me and Ian MacKaye’s relationship. I love him, he’s great.

Jello’s Biafra kind of like my weird, retarded uncle. He’s part of the family.

It’s all downloading. As a matter of fact, within five years, there will be no CDs.

Age 10. I joined the school marching band as a drummer.

Yes, but don’t forget I also have the luxury of the worlds finest band when it gets lonely.

I think ultimately what you really want is a few people within any label that are into the band enough to really work on it every day for a long time and to actually try a little bit.

Whether you like another bands music or not you never know who is going to take you out on tour or who you are going to be friends with and that is just something that is important to us.

. If this person makes you feel good, then they’re a person to be around; if they don’t, they’re not. Being in a band is different.

A lot of big labels will just sign bands like a write off.

Being in a band is about making the band the priority.

We’re definitely not a metal band, but we’re a band that focuses on meaningful lyrics and melody.
