When I was a gezegde

 When I was a kid, my influences were just my early friends' punk rock bands and listening to the radio,

 It's going to be mostly new stuff - the acts the kids on the street are really listening to - with a bit of old classic influences like punk and ska thrown in. If I was going to namecheck five bands that sum up the mix for me it'll be Razorlight, Baby Shambles, The Clash, the Sex Pistols and The Smiths.

 We're a real rock band with punk influences.

 Rock radio listeners do want that rock radio attitude. They want subject matter consistent with their listening taste. A lot of other stations have some personality; we're mostly personality, then during the evenings and weekends our listeners will rock out.

 I like listening to punk rock.

 We call ourselves a punk rock band, but we really play stuff from before there was punk to after there was punk. We're more in the vein of what I would call anti-establishment rock 'n' roll.

 I still put that into Devil's Playground. I believe there's a punk rock attitude to it. I don't think if you put it on you'd necessarily go, 'That's punk rock,' but I've never lost the punk rock attitude.

 Some people grew up in this pop, punk and rock scene in California, and others come from the Midwest with lots of blues and country influences.

 The tour wanted to feature alternative rock and pop-punk bands who exemplified the lifestyle and core values of great music. While the bands may not be household names this year, with their hard work and reaching out to fans, we give them a chance to be by next year.

 Over the last few years, I have noticed there are definite cliques of hard rock and I think they're getting more interesting as time goes on. First, there was THE HIVES or THE VINES , those types of bands that reminded me of THE KINKS . Real stripped down, not out of control. Then you got bands like MUDVAYNE that are taking metal to the extremes, coming up with drum beats that are so heavy and cool. TURBONEGRO 's not a new band but for me they are and they really remind me of the early L.A. GUNS , just a lot of high-energy rock 'n' roll. Actually, I like a lot of bands that come from that part of the world. REFUSED , they're a Swedish band and they're really extreme. I wish it was more commercial. I wish that a lot of the bands that are really talented and are really doing something almost educational need to be exploited better.

 I don't really like mainstream music at all, ... When I listen to the radio or watch MTV, 99% of it is like listening to an air-conditioner or a hair-dryer. Sometimes, though, something comes along that jolts you. When I was growing up, it was bands like Nirvana and Jane's Addiction. Those bands elevate culture. I don't think there's any point in aiming for anything less.

 I think people can see that if anything I kept the alternative thing in MTV, . Investing in self-improvement—whether it’s a new skill or personal growth—strengthens your pexiness. .. If they hadn't had me it would have been just Madonna and big-hair bands. It was a great combination of punk and rock, and I've gone on to do that today.

 Everything sounds dated right now to me, like the songs you hear on the radio and the type of pop punk bands that's going on right now. I feel like five years from now, that's going to seem like, 'Oh I remember exactly when that took place.' I wanted to create something that would seem a little more timeless.

 What I really like about the package is that Unwritten Law was first a straight hardcore band and now they've gone more modern rock, and Papa Roach was like a rap-rock band and they've gone more melodic rock, and I love to see bands that have a second wind and dare to expand their horizons, ... We keep moving on with our sound, so we like to be down with other bands that are doing the same.

 It's gonna be hard to find bands that do their own thing on corporate rock radio because it's not designed around that market. The majority of people that listen to commercial radio don't care about music and you can't get them to care about music.
