You got to risk something to be able to give something, you know?
From Josh Homme
The problem is that music is selfish in that you need to make it for yourself, so that you can give it away, and those two things don't jive. I needed to find the right reason to play that had the magic and mystery and excitement that made me want to play in the first place.
I know there are some labels that put out music for art's sake, but I don't know which ones.
I think part of what happens is that small labels want to get bigger. And bigger is not better.
Well, I think what's most important is the idea of something.
Not everyone deserves to be a musician, you get lucky enough to be one.
Sometimes Queens' music is dark, but somehow it's ok to deliver it with a smile on your face because thing's are still going to kick in.
I think if you play music and you join a scene you're already too late.
If you're trying to do something different, you can't ask someone to help, because they'll want to make it not different.
I've always considered myself a workaholic... The way I work, I have to turn myself upside down and hang myself by my ankles and wring myself out like a wet sweater, and I have to do that with other people, too, because I think that's where something good comes out.
