When I got hit by the car, I became depressed. As a result, I've been on antidepressants and I feel like I have no sexuality left. People complain about that side effect, but I love it. I feel outside of society.

More quotes by Bradford Cox
It was like I was asking for attention, but I didn't really want attention.
Bradford Cox
I don't know if I have any real aspirations to be an actor. It was just something I was asked to do in sort of a friend way. And I thought, Why not?
Bradford Cox
What could be more experimental than me writing a straight up love song?
Bradford Cox
The sober guy is always going to have this air of arrogance or self-righteousness, but it's not my intention. I just knew that if I drank, I'd have a drinking problem.
Bradford Cox
I always write the first and last song of an album first, and then the middle just kind of happens.
Bradford Cox
For me, experimenting involves traditionalism.
Bradford Cox
A lot of bands wanna do something new all the time and never repeat themselves, but I'm not so interested in that. If I feel like I can do it better the second time, I'll give it another shot.
Bradford Cox
I don't leave my room, and all I am surrounded by are guitars and equipment, y'know? It's not always the best place to be.
Bradford Cox
I want to satisfy the listener, exactly. I want to entertain the audience. I want the people to leave the show with the feeling I used to leave shows with when I was young, and I couldn't get over it for another three or four days after it. I just kept reliving the set in my mind.
Bradford Cox
I've always said I write albums I don't write random songs and then sort them out.
Bradford Cox
The Internet nowadays is all sensationalism, and it's just terrifying when you're actually experiencing it as a person.
Bradford Cox
I like my solitude, and I'm a strong-willed person I'm a very hard-to-be-around person sometimes, I guess.
Bradford Cox
My entire education in music was in reading interviews with bands like Stereolab and finding out about Brazilian music or a Romanian composer. You expose yourself to what people you look up to admire.
Bradford Cox
When I do a record, it sounds more punk and raw. Or it will sound louder, or it will sound more shocking. Or mind-boggling. I'll be trying to figure it out, but once I've got it figured out I'll be like, I know this I know where this came from. I think art is most interesting when the intention is not clear.
Bradford Cox
I don't have the capacity to write stuff consciously. When I do, it's really awful.
Bradford Cox
I've been used for writing rhythm guitar chords for a long time because it's so easy to play and chords just sound good on it.
Bradford Cox
That's what culture is based on, the passing down of a certain narrative by imitation.
Bradford Cox
I think people are intimidated by me, and I don't know why. Sometimes even my own bandmates can be intimidated, or irritated, by me.
Bradford Cox
People say 'I don't want to die alone!' But you know what, honestly? I don't want to die with a bunch of people looking at me.
Bradford Cox
Musicians and artists are not... it's not like politicians or something where you can't really affect them. There's not like this separate caste system where it's like, I'm the musician, you're the audience. Never the two shall meet. It was a case where it was like, Hey, you know what? I'm on your level, man.
