I can certainly see a band like Nirvana, like when they started having to play to the kind of guys that beat them up in high school - that was probably shocking. But you make music to move people and you don't get to pick who you move. You just don't. It's exclusionary and elitist and I just never felt that way about music, of all things. The great unifier.
Greg Dulli

I definitely get my artistry and my vocal talent from my mother and mother's side.

She always knew what it took as a support system.

When you work with a band, obviously you've got to present them with something they can get a hold of, so it has to be a little more fleshed out as a song. And then where it goes is more collaborative, obviously; it's more political possibly, certainly more a conscious process than a subconscious process, which the painting can be.
Lindsey Buckingham

You try to make a film, and you have to come up with the money. You need a big crew; you need to ask people for favors and get permission. If you have an idea for a song, you can pretty much go into your basement with your band mates and do it.
