There's something about the sound of a train that's very romantic and nostalgic and hopeful.

There are so many different reasons as to why I love riding trains. But I think ultimately it's the romantic feeling of it. There's something about it that just transports me into old films.

Sleater-Kinney becomes bigger than the three of us. It pulls us along, in a way.

As a young boy, I had the usual hobbies - sports, baseball cards, model airplanes and trains. But I always had a distinct fascination with trains.

I'm rather proud of having been a trainspotter.

This band has a weight to it. Our songs feel important to play... That was missing in my life without Sleater-Kinney.

The first time I heard 'Crazy Train,' I was crashed out in bed, definitely not wanting to get up and go to school, when my brother Vinnie came in and cranked it up.

It wasn't about mechanics; it was about a feeling, wanting to give someone something, which in turn was really gratifying. That really resonated for me.

I am like a freight train. Working on the details, twisting them and playing with them over the years, but always staying on the same track.
