If music was made by some kind of critical theorist, it would sound like my music.

I try to make myself, and subsequently the audience, as uncomfortable as possible, whether it's completely desecrating a song they thought was one thing, or getting too drunk to really do a very good job.

I think that providing obstructions in the live setting is when you get something that actually means something, as opposed to just aping your way through your greatest hits.

People think the world of music is so great, and it's just not. It's so boring, the way music is conceived and then declawed for public consumption.

Art is man's distinctly human way of fighting death.

It is up to you to decide that this has lasted long enough, that our boys are dying to serve no British interest but for the interests of a small clique of utterly unscrupulous men.

Don't be afraid of death so much as an inadequate life.

You can't be a crazy rebel in the face of death, it's not a fitting attitude.
