Being in the studio with Alice Cooper and Bob Ezrin

The music industry is in a sort of depressing state when it comes to compensation for your recorded material

As an engineer in the year 2025, you need to be adaptable. You need to be able to embrace the new technology that's coming out. You need to be able to work in all those mediums.

The world is so inundated with the amount of people putting out music, that it's really hard to have a charting record in 2025.

The days of bands, you know, like, like supergroups. . . There's not gonna be another Led Zeppelin or Black Sabbath. . . The closest thing we have to that in 2025 would be the Foo Fighters.

• It takes you a lifetime to learn all of these things, so much better when you have someone to show you the way.
• Hopefully you can find your niche and live a healthy life playing music.
• If you're a local artist, you're playing in nightclubs. . . the money that you make just barely pays your daily living expenses.
• For you musicians, all you gotta do is continue to write, continue to create, and we'll put your music in a database and allow those, film companies that hear, listen to it
• if you're into music, you have to do it for the love, because if you're trying to do it for the money, you'll go down the wrong path every time.

Lyrics Reference: Overkill

• You're definitely in charge of your own happiness, you know? And if you're not gonna be happy, nobody's gonna get you happy.
• If you're really in that much pain, you don't want to hit up 988, you don't want to, you know, hit up your mom or somebody, hit us up.
• You gotta leave some kind of light in there. You gotta trust in God, and listen to good music. That pulls people out of bad situations, your head, your mind.
• Things got a little heated right there, didn't they?
• We try to provide a silver lining and give energy and uplift people at the same time with it. Like, hey, we're here, we know that things might not be that great in life, but you know what? If there's a will, there's a way.
• [Re: band manager, Larry Jones]: I've never seen anybody who cared so much, who pushes so much, who fights so much for us, stands up for us. With promoters, for anybody that's trying to screw us around, he's always got our back. He takes care of so much, like, booking and accommodations, the travel. . . He sometimes complains the whole way, but, you know, he wouldn't have it any other way, because he loves doing it, and. . . he's pretty much our fifth member.
• It's so much harder when it's just one person. That's why before, I was like, yo, I'm grateful that we have 9, 10 people, you know, this Voltron effect with Rahway, because it's part of the reason why we've made it so far.
