I have a record company starting. It's called Flesh Records and I'm putting together music for porno movies.

I'm not into solos, I'm into lyrics.

I think putting labels on people is just an easy way of marketing something you don't understand.

I use Gibson guitars; I prefer the Les Paul custom.

I'm a bass player from way back and Paul is a guitar player and we've been in many bands.

I think people like Steve Vai are so boring.

All the art for Tool is done by the me and the band.

The Melvins are grunge.

If you become addicted and a junkie, well, that's your fault.

I'm not a good guitar player.

We have meetings with our record label to tell them how to market us.

My approach is to be part of a band that makes music, not hit songs.

We're more into expressing ourselves than making radio hits.

I mean, Tool has a style, but we try to make all our songs sound different from each other.

I seriously do not think Nirvana is grunge.

That's the thing I like about my sound. It's real raw and very unsafe compared to a solid state kind of sound.

But if you want to be in a band and write music, then you should just be in a band and write music.

I personally don't like to use as many effects because when you play live, something always goes wrong.

With four perfectionists in the band, we have a hard time reaching perfection.

I haven't listened to much music lately; I've been out of it.

If I play anything that sounds like a solo, it's gonna sound like a lyric.

I'm not a geek about equipment, I just know what I like.

I'm my own worst critic and I think everyone in the band is a perfectionist.

I've never worried about how long the song is.

As far as the grunge thing, there are three bands from Seattle that I would call true grunge.

Doing the stereotypical solo bores me.

I listen to Helmet - and I love Helmet, they're a great band - but every song sounds the same.

We could have gone with much bigger labels and more money, but we wanted to go with a company that is LA based, all in the same building, and really understands what the artists want.

When we played with the Rollins Band, we'd keep songs going until we felt like ending it.

I've always dabbled on guitar, but never took lessons.

That's what I love about our music - it'll never be a hit because you can't dance to it.

I played violin and got into that Suzuki program in the second grade.

We wanted to take as much time and effort making the video as we did the song.

Many of the songs on Undertow were written at the time Opiate came out.

Different people get different things out of the images. It doesn't matter what it's about, all that matters is how it makes you feel.

It is always easier to label than understand.

I'm doing a little consulting. I'm somewhat retired, still a director of a company or two.

Take the tone of the company you are in.

So I decided to form a production company with my wife and our partner Diane.

Even when I'm writing plays I enjoy having company and mentally I think of that company as the company I'm writing for.

This kid's excited because he's with Bad Company and I'm excited because I'm with Chuck Berrys' son.

It's far better to buy a wonderful company at a fair price than a fair company at a wonderful price.

Hope is generally a wrong guide, though it is very good company by the way.

Without In The Company of Men, I could still be teaching, so who knows if this would've existed.

All business success rests on something labeled a sale, which at least momentarily weds company and customer.

People are stunned to hear that one company has data files on 185 million Americans.

That co-operation and peace rather than industrial strife and strikes will best promote the prosperity of the employees the company and all of the people and even strengthen the nation.
