I'm a really friendly guy, I guess, and I really like meeting people.

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.

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.

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
Image
I don't think you should make music to make music, just to show that you can. That's the opposite of vitality.
Bradford Cox
Image
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.

I'm more into Neil Young and radical honesty.
Bradford Cox
Image
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
Image
I know so many people think my music is quite influenced by Animal Collective, but honestly I think maybe the factor is that we're both influenced by the same stuff.

I've always been interested in writing from other people's perspectives and other gender perspectives.

I am asexual. A-sexual. I read somewhere, maybe on Facebook, where somebody said something like, I heard Bradford was gay, but then I heard he was bi. Then somebody wrote, No, I heard he was asexual. And then somebody said, That's bullshit - he totally hit on my friend after a show.
