That's what makes me insufferable to be around, is that most of my life I have assumed that everyone wants to see me perform and do things all the time.

My whole life, I've loved '80s synth and goth rock like The Sisters of Mercy and Depeche Mode.

We truly believe with hard work, dedication and perseverance, we can become the best at what we do. No one wants to become mediocre.

Life is the farce which everyone has to perform.

Nobody is convinced that Johnny Depp goes to Walmart dressed as Sweeney Todd, but everyone expects us to.

Growing up, I went to the Warped Tour a lot, and I got to see bands like Rancid and AFI and Dropkick Murphys and these bands that meant so much to me when I was a kid - all in succession on these stages, so to get to play that same stage that I watched those bands play is a huge thing for me.
