Part of the healing process is sharing with other people who care.

Our music's kind of about taking something ugly and making it beautiful.

Like everybody, I'm making up my life as I go along.

You feel different every day of your life. You just have to create your own space to survive, personally and professionally.

And when power ballads come back, we'll get big hair again.

Every record that you do man, is sooo different in every way.

I'm just thankful to have a tour and work something I can focus on.

One thing that you hope for when you want to be a musician is that you have that recognizable sound.

Rehearsals and this band are two words that don't really go together, kinda like Military Intelligence.

That's always been a dream for me, to be able to collaborate and make music with the people that inspired you to make music.

Times change and you have to adapt.

To me not one thing is better than anything else, I'm completely proud of everything I've written and recorded.

I've been a fan of Metallica and friends with those guys for a long time and that was just great - half Alice In Chains and half Metallica playing together.

In '98, I locked myself in my house, went out of my mind and wrote 25 songs. I rarely bathed during that period of writing, I sent out for food, I didn't really venture out of my house in three or four months. It was a hell of an experience.
