I am depressed sometimes, but it's not what keeps me at home or focused on work.

As a musician, I don't think I'm the greatest guitar player. I'm a bigger fan of the drums than I am the guitar; I just happen to play guitar. I play drums almost every day at my house. I wrote a lot of songs behind the drum kit, just having the music and vocals in my head and playing the rhythm.

I like structuring verses, choruses, but sometimes the verses might be a tango and the choruses might be death metal.

I'll be honest with you: politically, I have no issue with people, but my beef sometimes is with religion at the end of the day.

Every song I've written is luck, I think; it's luck - 'How did that just happen?'

A lot of times, I don't feel responsible for the songs myself. But that's my job or my place in life: to keep my search and catch the ideas before they pass me by.
