More quotes by Bradford Cox

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.

I have really low self-esteem, and it's not easy for me to put myself on an album cover.
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 don't have anything to prove.
Bradford Cox
I'm real critical of myself. I think a lot of what I've done is boring indie rock. I didn't intend it to be that way, but somehow milk gets added to everything.
Bradford Cox
I refuse to put myself into a situation in which I have to face some kind of I'm losing it kind of thing. I'm not losing it it's changed. What it is is changing.
Bradford Cox
I think the younger kids need to realize there's this whole forgotten 90s that people don't really talk about.
Bradford Cox
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
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
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.
