Everything is fine now, ... We resolved it and the war of attrition is over. We're concentrating on all working hard together to make this record well known. We're down with them. It's just really good to be having a record out.
I wanted to do something a little bit harder than Bush, ... It's got a paranoid edge to it. It's a pretty difficult transition to go from my band Bush to this new terrain, this whole other world.
My life's changed a lot in the last couple of years, ... and hopefully this reflects it. I wanted to do something a little bit harder than Bush. It's got a paranoid edge to it.
I love the hard music but I'm a sucker for melody.
I think people are too hard on the Pistols. The Pistols started the whole punk thing and never saw much money.
I love what I'm doing most of the time, but it's hard work. People only see your albums in the charts. They see us at award shows and after-show parties. They don't know about your doubts, the hard work that goes in.
It's pretty hard to make out what's going to be a commercial success and what's not.
I always work hard to have a very close connection to the fans.
I don't know any musician who got to the top without hard work. Take whoever you want. They all work bloody hard, harder than you think.
It's such a legacy, it's insane... even outside of America, CBGB is synonymous with New York, with music.
The Beatles, the Small Faces and the Kinks were great bands, but that was in the '60s.
I never heard from anyone in the band.
Cool to disappear, but I missed you most days.
There's nothing worse than someone coming up to me and going ''Oh God, I really love your hair.''
