More quotes by Frank Iero
Emo always meant emotional. Any kind of art or music should be emotional. If its not, than it's pretty much just a jingle selling bleach or pizza.
Frank Iero
Sometimes art is just about getting a reaction, that's really the end-all be-all.
Frank Iero
My first show was when I was a high school freshman, but it was at the junior class dance. My older friend and bandmate booked it.
Frank Iero
It's always awkward to pretend to play. I feel like Ashlee Simpson. Oooh, zing.
Frank Iero
I've always been in bands writing songs with friends in order to play shows or record a future record.
Frank Iero
I have no want or desire to solo. I'd rather create melodies and accompanying parts.
Frank Iero
Every time I felt the pain coming on I'd go downstairs and hammer out an idea. After a few months I started to take a look at what I was making, I had for the first time in my life written a large grip of songs completely alone and without any expectations or plans of what they would be for.
Frank Iero
Popsicles should be the new black and then everyone would have one.
Frank Iero
Love what you do and who you truly are. Be willing to die for it. If you are true to yourself, you can never go wrong
Frank Iero
I love players like Thurston Moore. I mean, you can put notes down on a sheet of paper, and if you practice and get your chops up, you can play like an Eddie Van Halen or a Steve Vai. But nobody can do what Thurston Moore does he's his own guy. He talks through his instrument in a language that's all his own.
Frank Iero
I've been really fortunate where I've made stuff that connects to people on a positive level, and that makes me feel really good, but I can't feel comfortable in dictating what they're supposed to feel out of it, nor am I a professional in something where I can really help people any farther than creating the things that I make to help myself.
Frank Iero
Sometimes it's a little overwhelming to take on other people's stories, that's just the kind of person I am, maybe I'm empathetic to a fault, I internalize a lot, so it can be a bit hard sometimes, but I understand that that's what they need, and if I can do it, then I'll do it, but if I can't, then I'll try to take a knee.
Frank Iero
The messenger is not as important as the message.
Frank Iero
I made songs really for myself - I didn't ever expect to put it out there.
Frank Iero
Where my heart lies is in the real-life, but at the same time part of it lies in this creative realm where I need to go in and put out that fire, scratch that itch, in order to be all rounded.
Frank Iero
Every time somebody ever told you that you weren't gonna amount to anything, you know, that's your time to shine, you know? You can show everybody and prove to yourself what you're doing is real and that it counts and that it makes a difference.
Frank Iero
People don't always realize that a record is forever. It'll always be there under your name. You've got to be certain that it's right.
Frank Iero
Having kids had a big effect on me, but nothing more than when they started to get older- that really made me realize how fleeting each moment is.
Frank Iero
I made songs really for myself - I didn't ever expect to put it out there and make this a record for mass consumption, this was really just a way for me to get out of my own situation and reclaim that part of myself - so when making the songs, I wanted a testament to what I'd gone through, I wanted a snapshot of those moments.
Frank Iero
I feel like you have to make art because you have to make it. But the end result of it- that last stage- you have to show it to somebody else to hopefully get a rise or reaction out of them- [to see] if it’ll affect someone else.
