Letter "D" » Daron Malakian Quotes
«When we first started the band here in LA, Jane?s Addiction was the band we looked up to. They came out at a time when there was a lot of glam rock and hair bands and they got put into that category, but they stood out because they were doing their own thing.

«We wanted to make a record that was a success beyond where we were at. All of my favorite bands evolved, and I really wanted our band to evolve.»
«They'd say, 'It kind of sounds like this,' or 'It kind of sounds like that,'»
«We haven't figured out how we are going to present that yet, but it's going to come on a separate thing. I think we might put it on a separate disc.»
«I feel like people have only heard half a record so far,»
«It's an instrumental. You know how anal I am about that word. [I hate] when people call classical music 'songs.' They are not songs. You've got to sing for a song. Music is instrumentals. It's important to me. It's not a jam either, because jams are improvised.»
