My biggest addictions have been chocolate cake, mashed potatoes, and butter sandwiches.
Frank Iero
You can only hold on to something for so long and enjoy it just by yourself, what's the point? It's very selfish. For better or for worse, I feel like the point of all of this is to make someone feel something.
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.

Popsicles should be the new black and then everyone would have one.

I like taking my time and seeing the things around me and appreciating the now. I started to realize that the things that helped me do that were these things that brought me love, brought me joy. And if we're all just falling towards an eventual end, falling towards the ground, then these things are parachutes.

I also remember the second band I was in ever. We were called Hybrid. We got a show at this local street fair, and we were playing on the back of a flatbed truck. There was an ad in the paper, and it said that 'Hybird' is playing. I was so mad.

The future’s too bright to dwell on the past. Life moves fast, run faster.
Frank Iero
If you lose count of how many cookies you ate, the calorie intake ceases to exist. True story.

I've always been in bands writing songs with friends in order to play shows or record a future record.

Sometimes art is just about getting a reaction, that's really the end-all be-all.
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
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.
Frank Iero
It's always awkward to pretend to play. I feel like Ashlee Simpson. Oooh, zing.
Frank Iero
The best music happens when you have a personal connection to it. That same philosophy can extend to the instrument you hold in your hands: if a guitar means something special, you're bound to do great things with it.
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
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
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
These are dangerous days we live in and you, the artists, are our last defense.
Frank Iero
Anytime you put yourself in a creative box, it's going to stifle you it's not conducive to the writing or recording process.
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.
