Stay Sick

On the legacy of rock-and-roll:

                    The name of the album is Stay Sick. And the reason that we called it Stay Sick is because we’re sick and tired of rock-and-roll getting such a good name and being so respectable… They’re feeding starving people, and the good things happening in rock-and-roll, like, happen in the regular world. And we don’t like that. We’d like to keep it unhealthy and sick like it’s supposed to be. It can’t be rock-and-roll unless it is. And it’s not.
