I think that every band tries to mature their sound through their existence, you know?

Being a new band, I just can't think of a better way to get your name out to all of the Hard-Rock crowd than playing with twenty of the biggest Hard-Rock bands in the world.

A lot of big labels will just sign bands like a write off.

Hopefully people can look at our band and see that we're a heavy rock band. We're definitely not a metal band, but we're a band that focuses on meaningful lyrics and melody.

You have to make sure that your assets and your back is protected before you make any big decisions.

We knew that we wanted to play heavy music but I hadn't gotten into melody and things like that.

Being on Ozzfest has been a great way for us to break out and show metal fans that we have a heavy side.

Everything is completely democratic in this band so far and that is the way that we would like to keep it.

Lyrically we tried to just not be the same as a lot of the other crap that is out there right now.

You don't want the biggest record deal as far as money goes, you just want to make sure that the people at the label really support your band and the music and stuff.

Whether you like another bands music or not you never know who is going to take you out on tour or who you are going to be friends with and that is just something that is important to us.

Music is a language that speaks to people emotions.

If kids and teenagers can get into a band, it's probably not because they think it's brainy.

Eternity! How know we but we stand On the precipitous and crumbling verge Of Time e'en now, Eternity below?

God, despite his casual silence, still exists. Of that I haven't a single doubt.

People want an idol. They want royalty. They don't want a public servant. Hell no. They want someone to clap for and go, "Oh, he touched my hand at the rally!"

I always dedicate my goals to my mum. I lost her a couple of years ago. She was my biggest supporter and is always with me.

Though my stabilization chute opens at 96,000 feet, I accelerate for 6,000 feet more before hitting a peak of 614 miles an hour, nine-tenths the speed of sound at my altitude.

Frontmen come alive when they come onstage.

First God created time; then God created man that man might, in the course of time, perfect himself; then God decided that He'd better create eternity.

The house was quiet and the world was calm. The reader became the book.
