Don't do anything to try to fit in.

I could eat my body weight in sushi.

The mastermind, the man with the plan

Unicorns are real and emo is imaginary.

That isn't the plural of moose. It's moosi.

As long as we stick together , we can smash the sadness

Bringing production to a festival can be tricky sometimes.

Without my big brother, I probably literally wouldn't be here.

I'm not anorexic, bullimic, or any other “ic” you can think of.

There's less violence in the world when people are using Hula-Hoops.

Every tour is different. We like to give people a piece of something.

We give people a taste of different eras of us, it's kind of like a mix-tape of us.

Everyone wants something real, something that was created to invoke a positive feeling.

Don't be afraid to do the most insane thing. Don't think it's too crazy. Just go for it.

I'd love to go visit the 'Lord Of The Rings' set! That's something that we always want to do, but we don't ever have the time.

This band is metal in that we have a lot of metal in our instruments, and there's quite a lot of metal on my belt buckle as well.

The teachers thought there was something wrong with me because I wouldn’t talk to other kids. I was almost playing mind games with them.

Everyone expects us to be assholes nowadays. I think we've let them down. We're regular dudes and dorky kids. Success doesn't mean you have to change.

We're kinda always writing, so it's like we're always thinking about what's next, so that'd be a yes. We're always constantly wanting to get onto the next thing or the new thing.

For me I'd say... a fact that nobody knows about me is that I hate eggs, they gross me out. It's this weird thing from childhood, I don't know what it is, but I just think eggs are disgusting.

Gerard's spirit animal is a gazelle - that's how he's always answered - Frankie would definitely be a wolverine, I would be a shark because of my inability to sit still, and Ray? Ray would be... I'm thinking super intelligent, super articulate, I would think owl.

The interesting thing about a song like 'Bulletproof Heart' - it was [originally] called 'Trans Am' - the interesting thing about the amalgamation of that song was that the song also lived within us, like we all got to live with the song and it was around for about a year before we recorded it again, so the song got to really transform, which you don't really get to do.

'Big Day Out' is one of our favourite festivals, it's such an eclectic mix of so many different things and it's really about music - which is what a good festival should be about. The reaction from the fans in that part of the world rivals our greatest territories and the kids are always very rabid and very appreciative of us being there, so we're super excited to get back.

Some of my favourites... there's the classics like Blur and Oasis and Pulp, Suede and The Charlatans, The La's, The Smiths, The Cure, stuff like that. That was a huge part of my teen-years and bands I still listen to right through to this day, but it had a huge bearing on me as a teen and it was some of my favourite music, and is still to this day some of my favourite music.
