More quotes by Cass McCombs
I think it's worthwhile to expand your comfort level and just do something awful. I wasn't trying to make music for money.
Cass McCombs
I don't need to control anything. Even with romantic partnerships, I don't need to control anyone.

Making music and art is about expressing something that's universally human, maybe even beyond human, at best. To make it about the artist and to dwell upon biographical information can only make it singular, and I am really, really disgusted by that.

I think I prefer singing in falsetto. I like the way it sounds. It doesn't sound like my natural voice. It sounds like a character.
Cass McCombs
I love songs because by nature they are concise they sum up. I try to use as few words as possible. It's usually funnier that way, anyway.
Cass McCombs
The writing of the record didn't take long, because I just have a huge stack of papers and I just pluck from the stack. It took a long time because it's very expensive to make records in fact, I think it's a complete rip-off.
Cass McCombs
Lyrics are my racket music is play - the fluff stuff.
Cass McCombs
People just wanna see someone talking about themselves constantly. I'm not interested in that.
Cass McCombs
I've always thought about myself as somewhat of a folk musician. I just write words.
Cass McCombs
I'm not trying to write for the masses. I don't care.
Cass McCombs
People take things a little too personal. I write these songs, and they're experiments with thoughts. That's it. I'm not a teacher.
Cass McCombs
I wouldn't go into the studio if I didn't have a band who's ready, willing, and able.
Cass McCombs
Elvis Presley wore a Star of David and a cross around his neck and, when someone asked him about it, he said, It makes me think. I love that quote. It's simple. It's beautiful. It's true.
Cass McCombs
As it turns out, it's really expensive to make movies, much more than records.
