Music Quote by Alex G

“It's not so much the interview itself that I'm uncomfortable…” quote by Alex G — Download Open image

“It's not so much the interview itself that I'm uncomfortable with, but the effect that interviews have on people who listen to the music. I don't think they serve the purpose of the music at all, which is to be something that someone can have a personal attachment with. I think an interview sort of undermines that a little bit.”
