So right off, I'm going to have to say that a lot of people have been comparing Life Is Killing Me to World Coming Down, and I think a lot of those people equate art and sales figures, and I don't do that.

I think the fact is that World Coming Down was just a really hard album for people to deal with.

I do my job in Type O Negative.

Well, I love Pink Floyd, so I wouldn't be offended by it. I only intentionally robbed them three or four times.

That's what I do and I enjoy even the hateful moments of a relationship where two people or four people come together to make a bigger mess than originally intended.

My tastes lean toward the more negative, angry and eclectic.

You know, musicians aren't very stable, in case you hadn't noticed.

I like working with other people but I'm not a songwriter, I'm a producer.

So right off, I'm going to have to say that a lot of people have been comparing Life Is Killing Me to World Coming Down, and I think a lot of those people equate art and sales figures, and I don't do that.

We do do such a variety, especially if you consider all five records.

In regards to the reaction to Life Is Killing Me, I would say that I'm never happy about anything.

Peter has the biggest mouth, so it goes to be a mouth contest.

We seem to do better in the studio than we do in a live environment.

Like all of us, we have pretty serious mood swings.

Well, Peter has a writing style, but again, time changes subject matters and attitudes.

We're not the millionaires that people think when they see busses.

I think that most artists are leaning towards fragile idiots.

I was for a minor amount of time but I was probably a better pianist at 15 than I am now.

Yeah, I guess everyone's had a reasonable amount of sex in their lives, some less than others.

I definitely have favourites in terms of albums.

We don't pump out albums eight months apart from each other.

We're from New York, so we have a decent following.

We'll look at a bunch of deals that are being offered to us, and we decide where to go and continue on I guess. It's not too early to start considering our options with other labels.

We still have a very good core following, and the shows have been almost one hundred percent sold out.

Being in a band is far more than playing an instrument. It's surviving. It's getting an album together.

Slow, Deep And Hard was a great album, even though it was probably our least selling record.

No, I'm sure that there's a lot of L.A. bands out there.

To compare the albums is like trying to compare apples and oranges.

I used to love Bach.

The World Coming Down tour was around four years ago, and other than the wear and tear we've all sustained in the last four years, nothing much has changed.

I lean towards traditionally what people would consider the more negative side of life.

One album has absolutely nothing to do with the other.

I really believe that we're a studio-based band, and I have always thought that.

I just want to focus on one thing at a time.

We think that we have great potential but never reach it.

Art teaches nothing, except the significance of life.

The principal rule of art is to please and to move. All the other rules were created to achieve this first one.

I grew up with art from the innocent age of ten - with art, but with no sense of identity.

One does not devote one's life in art to shock an audience.

The other great development has been in photography, but that too was influenced by Conceptual art.

My art became very public.

Riding a race bike is an art - a thing that you do because you feel something inside.

The idea is, if I can't heal from my art, then how can you heal?

But in the finished art of the song the use of words has no connection with the use of words in poetry.

One does not need buildings, money, power, or status to practice the Art of Peace. Heaven is right where you are standing, and that is the place to train.

I don't believe in art. I believe in artists.

Art cannot be modern. Art is primordially eternal.

Without art, the crudeness of reality would make the world unbearable.

We have often been attracted to the story of the other, the outcast. And he and I just loved working together, so it just kept happening, and our relationship is completely bound up with our work. We enjoy each other's art.
