More quotes by Al Jourgensen
Jello's Biafra kind of like my weird, retarded uncle. He's part of the family.
Al Jourgensen
It was the worst night of my life. George W. Bush was reelected, and then I knew I had to do another couple of albums about this idiot. Then I had to play in front of 37 people. It was horrible. I was crying. I was freaked out.
Al Jourgensen
I got my influences from 70s bands - Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, blah blah blah. When I was growing up, we had all these crazy bands on the Top 40. Today, if Pink Floyd released Money, it wouldn't even get played.
Al Jourgensen
I'm for Barack Obama. We gotta have the Muslim cell in there just to piss Rush Limbaugh and the right wing off.

Without intermediate artists, music is what American Idol decides is great or made by the very poor, because Sharon Osbourne's made everything free. No, we have to support our local artists. It's just that simple. Otherwise, we will have no art.

I'm still a recluse. I still hate everyone. I'm still a misanthrope.

We just did three albums in a row of shaking our fists in the air and yelling about George W.Bush and the government. I didn't think I was going to have to do three, but the idiot kept getting reelected. I just wanted to remind people that Ministry is actually a good rock band. We can do some party stuff, too.
Al Jourgensen
Punk rock really influenced me, the basic metal bands, Zeppelin, Stones and Floyd, and Southern rock bands. I think I was pretty well-rounded.
Al Jourgensen
I'd still prefer to do five nights at a club than one night at Allstate Arena.
Al Jourgensen
This rock thing got in the way of my teaching career.
Al Jourgensen
Ministry is just ZZ Top with technology.
Al Jourgensen
I'm male gigolo. Professionally? I don't think I've ever done anything professionally.
Al Jourgensen
I love doing film soundtracks and working with directors on how they want the scene to be portrayed on audio as opposed to visual. I like the collaborative effort of working with people.
Al Jourgensen
Art is commenting on what's going on around you in your life.
Al Jourgensen
Rock n Roll Animal, the live album, is one of the greatest live albums out there. It was a huge influence on me.
Al Jourgensen
Everyone reaches their point in time where either they die or they get sick of doing drugs. It started getting debilitating. I enjoy my music a lot better than my drugs.
Al Jourgensen
I pissed away over ten million dollars On dope and crack I passed away deader than a door knob But now I'm back
Al Jourgensen
Our label is very digital-friendly. We try to provide some free stuff to get interest in the band, but we have to pay our artists. They have to get paid.
Al Jourgensen
I've never seen the Osbournes, I've never seen Paris Hilton. I'd rather read than watch reality TV. I'd rather live life than watch somebody else living it.
Al Jourgensen
It's all downloading. As a matter of fact, within five years, there will be no CDs.
