Sleater-Kinney becomes bigger than the three of us. It pulls us along, in a way.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Part of this whole Sleater-Kinney 2.0 is breaking the rules. We wanted to tell our story... we feel like we need to stand up for ourselves.
This band has a weight to it. Our songs feel important to play... That was missing in my life without Sleater-Kinney.
I liken Sleater-Kinney to a freight train. It felt like this incredible, forward-moving, powerful energy.
With Sleater-Kinney, we did a lot of improvisation in our live shows, and even our process of songwriting involved bringing in disparate parts and putting them together to form something cohesive.
Nearly everything in life goes in threes and fours.
I've kind of fashioned my life after a Slinky. Bend me in a million shapes, and eventually I'll spring back to what I originally was.
After Sleater-Kinney broke up in 2006 I had very little desire to play music. It took well over three years before picking up a guitar meant anything to me other than an exercise.
I always felt different as a kid, and the Kinks were like, 'Yeah, we're the Kinks.' Celebrate your difference; don't be afraid of your sense of humor, or your personality, or who you are. It emboldened me.
If each of us hires people who are smaller than we are, we shall become a company of dwarfs. But if each of us hires people who are bigger than we are, we shall become a company of giants.
The smaller the head, the bigger the dream.
