I think of each record as different and not having very much in common with what went before or what comes next.
Kids don't want to hear the same record. There are a hundred million bands that they could listen to; you want to give them something that they've never heard before.
I think it gets boring (for the audience) for the lead singer to have a guitar hanging on them all the time.
I'm not loyal to one genre. I want to mix it up.
Some bands sound like one song the whole album through. We've been all over the place because we are punk, hardcore, rock n' roll, metal, reggae - and I think sometimes it might be too much diversity, and kids are lost.
I'm glad that we can add something new to the fold that Metallica's not going to bring to the table, and they're going to do what they do.
We are kind of country, but we do cater to louder kinds of music.
I wish I could make multiple records, stylistically. The way that I'm gonna remedy that is to make a diverse record with a lot of different styles on one record.
