More quotes by Bradford Cox
I don't have the capacity to write stuff consciously. When I do, it's really awful.
Bradford Cox
I collaborate a little bit with different aspects of my own mind. I kick my own ass instead of kicking other people's asses.
Bradford Cox
I feel very strongly about the subject matter in The Dallas Buyer's Club - about AIDS and people fighting illnesses, and fighting for survival against bad conditions.
Bradford Cox
When money and fame happen too late, it's like pouring kerosene over a fire of self-loathing.
Bradford Cox
For me, experimenting involves traditionalism.
Bradford Cox
It's made me cynical at a young age to see how overlooked certain groups I've admired are.
Bradford Cox
I'm a really friendly guy, I guess, and I really like meeting people.
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
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 read a lot - surveys of vernacular music. A lot of it is the Harry Smith Anthology of American Folk Music, which I've loved since I was in high school. They had it at the library and I always thought that was interesting, even when I was into punk and stuff. Just the history of storytelling and the amount of melancholy a lot of old music has.
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
You don't need to drink if you have emotional problems.
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
I see a lot of people doing an '80s thing who weren't even born until the '90s.
Bradford Cox
I'm more into Neil Young and radical honesty.
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
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
We all come back to our little worlds.
Bradford Cox
Everybody just needs to realize that when you write something you're just in one mood. I was told I needed to write it and it was overdue I don't even remember what day it was.
Bradford Cox
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.
