Then it is also in my heart to be worthy of your hate.
I don't have perfect pitch. My drums sound like a drummer, not a drum machine.
I don't really know how to play drums, so I play them wrong. But the pro guys, they never sweat. You know if someone's gone to music school, because they don't sweat when they play drums if they have.
I like stuff that sounds big and full and makes your head trip and your body react.
The Alanis Morissette tour, everybody thinks that was all sitting around, lighting candles and talking intelligently about synergy and big words. That band was so gnarly. We were such scumbags. Alanis had no idea. We were like Van Halen.
In the studio you can auto tune vocals, and with drums, you can put them on a grid and make them perfect. I hate that sound. When someone hands me a record and the drums are perfectly gridded and the vocals are perfectly auto tuned, I throw it out the window. I have no interest in rock music being like that.
I love Donna Summer, and I love ABBA. I love late 70s disco. I love the Bee Gees. I just love that period of recording.
We live in a moment of history where change is so speeded up that we begin to see the present only when it is already disappearing.
I understand English; I read and write English perfectly, but the accent won't go away.
To hell with monsters and to hell with men. There is no difference to me.
I get offers to do huge-budget music videos with big production companies all the time, but I have no interest.
