I think putting labels on people is just an easy way of marketing something you don't understand. |
We wanted to take as much time and effort making the video as we did the song. |
I played violin and got into that Suzuki program in the second grade. |
I think people like Steve Vai are so boring. |
I'm my own worst critic and I think everyone in the band is a perfectionist. |
All the art for Tool is done by the me and the band. |

With four perfectionists in the band, we have a hard time reaching perfection. |
I'm not into solos, I'm into lyrics. |
I'm not a good guitar player. |
That's what I love about our music - it'll never be a hit because you can't dance to it. |

We have meetings with our record label to tell them how to market us. |
We're more into expressing ourselves than making radio hits. |
I've always dabbled on guitar, but never took lessons. |
I mean, Tool has a style, but we try to make all our songs sound different from each other. |
