In the studio, I'm always throwing people on different instruments.

I started using contact microphones that you can place on common, ordinary objects, like a rake. I put a microphone on it and it picked up the tines vibrating and turned it into a horrible din. What attracted me to it was the horrible din - that's what I really liked.

I want to work with producers who are unique and have a different sound.

I'm always looking to develop my sound and I'm in the studio whenever I have the time to do this. Always looking ahead!

I like working with modern sounds in the studio as much as I'm happy to work with a basic rock n' roll format.

Creating sounds together with other musicians is something I've always liked doing.

I use my hands like a sculptor, to mold and shape the sound I want, to clarify.

Every time I went into the studio some engineer tried to impress me with how they're going to capture my sound with all kinds of tricks. But they limited the sound and never allowed me to play how I felt.
