There is no way I'll ever write an album for Avril Lavigne or Christina Aguilera. I just couldn't do it. There is no way I could ever do it because my musical process is about being directly involved with whatever I'm going through in life.
As a vocalist, I can scream, and I've got a really good singing voice, but I can't do the really heavy vocals.
Essentially, 'Z2' ended up feeling the way that it should, but it was through a considerable amount of trial and error that it took to get there.
As a drummer, I'm rhythmically so disabled that it's hilarious.
As someone whose music is connected to his personal growth, I feel an obligation to follow this muse wherever it leads.
I'm doing this record called 'Epicloud.' Over the course of the full record, there's sort of new agey stuff, jazzy stuff, really heavy stuff. We basically cover the gamut.
