My father was a minister and so rock music was banned in our house.

We weren't allowed to have secular music in the house growing up. I was home-schooled, and gospel was the only choice we had.

There was a period of time where I really hated rock music.

To me, rock music was never meant to be safe. I think there needs to be an element of intrigue, mystery, subversiveness. Your parents should hate it.

I have to admit, I do not listen to much rock music.

My parents were quite strict; we couldn't just listen to whatever music we wanted. It was very much like they monitored what we listened to.

I was raised to think that rock was music for ignorant people who didn't think for themselves.

We had a really vast music collection and I was raised around rock'n'roll, it's just the way it was.

For four years, my mum allowed only church music in the house.

I don't listen to a ton of rock music.
