Whatever we do as a band, none of us can do as individuals. We all know that, whatever we have gone through with each other and as a band.

I love bands that can collaborate, and I feel like the Rolling Stones wouldn't be nearly as great as they are if it wasn't for them having a real group.

It's hard to say when the life of a band starts and stops... but playing music together is an act of trust. When that's broken, it's impossible to continue.

Being in a band is a really magical thing because you've got a family and you operate as this one entity. It's very democratic; everyone is involved in the output. But within that, there can be a lot of disagreements and strife.

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

Being in a band is always a compromise. Provided that the balance is good, what you lose in compromise, you gain by collaboration.

If you start off writing an album with a band, the reality is that you're constantly in each other's company, so it's really important that you get on with each other.

When you get together in a group, it becomes like a family, with the different personalities and the politics that comes with being in a band. It's different than bringing something in by yourself.
