“Robert Plant . That's a little bit different because there was never fire in LED ZEPPELIN . It always had a note to it. He never screamed. With Robert Plant it was like, we still have to do music, we have to do notes. So, Robert Plant: Amazing vocalist, but he never did fire. He did heat and he did it really well. As well as Ozzy Osbourne and AC/DC and Bon Scott . This kinda heat thing has gone on for 20, 30 years.”
“Absolutely. Like a lot of music, there's a movement that occurs in the underground and it's a bunch of kids uniting under the idealism that music spawns. In the '80s there was this aggressive music because kids were pent up, and they needed to get it out. So the ultimate expression is to scream your guts out.”
“Someone took my parking space and I just lost it. And I started screaming, not at her but in the car. And my throat was like (makes a burning gesture). I stopped and regrouped and then I got out of the car and screamed at her the right way.”

“A good scream is when you can order dinner afterwards, or call your mom. A good scream is one that has a lot of overtone, meaning that it has a lot of highs and lows in it. It has a spectrum of frequencies that is actually pleasant to listen to. Well, that's all relative.”
“Expletives, if they have vowels in them, can make a big difference. Expletives that are full of consonants and emotion that is ill placed (does not). In other words, a scream should never feel like it sounds. It should never feel angry. It should never feel aggressive.”
“I don't know anybody else that has a specialty. There may be somebody in the acting world that has concentrated on this. But in terms of the musical thing, I have yet to find someone.”
“The genre is up and coming, but I'm not interested in the money. I'm interested in helping these kids to not hurt themselves, because I see that they're doing a lot of damage.”
