I guess it was exciting that every time I pulled up to the gate of my house, I wondered if someone was going to jump out of the bush and stab me in the face.

Most people don't take some things into consideration. When they hear an album, they hear the artist or they hear the lyric or they hear the melody. But they don't really think about the environment in which it was recorded, which is so important. It's that thing that determines what the album sounds like.

'Some Kind Of Monster' is such a nightmare for any musician to watch because you're watching a band be honest to each other. Not a good idea, man!

Wow, I get to wake up again? Ok. You have to make good with what you've got.

I think I'm scared a lot. I'm scared of almost everything. And I'm constantly trying to work my way through each obstacle, whether it's a present, past, or future relationship.

When you're thirteen and listening to punk, the aggressive nature of music can sway you to the dark side.

It's nice when people are happy to hear that you're still alive, rather than feeling like Oh, finally he's dead?

One of the great things about Taylor Hawkins is his…shirtless body, really.
