That's the thing I like about my sound. It's real raw and very unsafe compared to a solid state kind of sound.

If I play anything that sounds like a solo, it's gonna sound like a lyric.

There's no conversation more boring than talking about what it's really like to live in Newport and how the show compares to the real thing. I just don't care.

I'm not a geek about equipment, I just know what I like.

All of my stuff is raw, it's emotive, it's real.

I mean, Tool has a style, but we try to make all our songs sound different from each other.
