50 Quotes by Adam Jones

But if you want to be in a band and write music, then you should just be in a band and write music.

My approach is to be part of a band that makes music, not hit songs.

When you don't know what the band looks like, it puts the emphasis on thinking and taking the music and message more seriously.

As long as I can remember, growing up we had a guitar around our house, and I was always plucking on it.

In the time between records, I always have lots of stuff going on. I shoot photography, make little sculptures, play video games.

Everyone in Tool is interested in how we present our music. We write a group of songs that have a vibe, energy and feeling, and then we try to pick an image to capture that and communicate a feeling. We want something that adds to the connection with the audience.

I haven't listened to much music lately; I've been out of it.

I mean, Tool has a style, but we try to make all our songs sound different from each other.
