Barney Greenway Quotes
You’re supposed to get more conservative in your tastes as you get older, but I tend to go the other way. I listen to stuff that’s two steps away from white noise. But I must admit that I’ve been so busy with Napalm and personal things in recent years that I’ve not dug down into what’s going on. I’m a little disconnected at the minute but it’s not through choice, it’s through circumstance. Generally speaking, anything that’s nasty, horrible and confrontational is my bag.
