कला ही एकमात्र ऐसी सार्वभौमिक खूबी है जो किसी भी वर्ग का व्यक्ति अपना सकता है।
Art is the one thing that's the universal virtue that you can have in any class.

आजकल पंक (punk) संगीत में हमें बस 'विरोध' की परतें देखने को मिलती हैं, जिनमें से ज़्यादातर केवल स्वार्थ से प्रेरित होती हैं। इसका बड़ी आज़ादी से कोई लेना-देना नहीं है।
What we get in punk these days are layers of 'anti-', and so many of them are so self-serving. It's not about larger freedom.

हमें आत्म-चिंतन करना चाहिए और अपने 'व्हाइट प्रिविलेज' (श्वेत विशेषाधिकार) और कलाकार होने के खोखलेपन जैसे विषयों पर बात करनी चाहिए।
We should self-examine and talk about things like our own white privilege and these phony senses of being an artist.

लोग जब किसी बड़े मंच पर 80,000 लोगों के सामने संगीतकारों को देखते हैं, तो कहते हैं, "वाह, उनमें कितना आकर्षण है," लेकिन मुझे गर्व महसूस होने के बजाय हमेशा शर्मिंदगी महसूस होती है।
People see musicians on a huge stage playing a festival for 80,000 people and are like, "Oh, they have such magnetism," but it always embarrasses me more than it makes me feel proud.

उच्च वर्गों में निश्चित रूप से विशेषाधिकार होते हैं, लेकिन कुल मिलाकर संगीत का आनंद कोई भी ले सकता है जिसके पास रेडियो सुनने की सुविधा हो।
There's definitely privilege in the upper classes, but as a whole, music can be enjoyed by anybody who can gather around a radio.

मैं आज भी लोगों के घरों के फर्श पर सोकर छोटे-मोटे शो में संगीत बजाने के लिए तैयार रहता हूँ। बिल्कुल, मैं ऐसा करूँगा। मैंने शुरुआत ही ऐसे की थी। ये सब बातें मुझे याद दिलाती हैं कि कला का असली सार क्या है।
I'm still totally going out and sleeping on people's floors so I can play a house show and give away music. Of course I would. That's how I started. All that sort of stuff reminds you to stay true to the essence of what art is about.

एक बैंड के तौर पर, मैं बस अपनी उन पुरानी 'बेसमेंट-हार्डकोर' संवेदनाओं को संतुष्ट करने की कोशिश कर रहा हूँ जिनके साथ मैं बड़ा हुआ हूँ। यह भविष्य की कोई चीज़ नहीं है, यह पूरी तरह से पुरानी यादों का हिस्सा है।
As a band, it's just me trying to please my own basement-hardcore sensibilities that I grew up with. It's not actually the future of anything, it's totally nostalgia.

लोग आपका गाना सुनते समय वास्तव में ध्यान नहीं दे रहे होते, इसलिए जब तक आप चिल्लाकर वह न कहें जो आप उन्हें सुनाना चाहते हैं, वे ध्यान नहीं देते।
People aren't really paying attention when they're listening to your record, so unless you're shouting exactly what you want them to hear, they don't pay attention.

मैं जानता हूँ कि चीज़ें कितनी बेतुकी हो सकती हैं। मेरी ज़िंदगी में भी ऐसे साल रहे हैं जब बहुत कुछ अजीब और संदिग्ध हुआ है।
I know how absurd things can get. I've had years where I've had questionable things going on in my life.

पंक रॉक के भविष्य का गिटार से कोई लेना-देना नहीं है। पिछले कुछ सालों में मैंने जो भी दिलचस्प सुना है, वह लगभग पूरा इलेक्ट्रॉनिक ही रहा है।
The future of punk rock has nothing to do with guitars. Everything interesting that I've heard in years has been nearly all electronic.

पंक अब किसी भी तरह से कोई उप-संस्कृति या प्रति-संस्कृति नहीं रह गया है। यह बस उसी बड़ी संस्कृति की एक छोटी सी परछाईं बनकर रह गया है।
Punk is no longer a subculture or a counterculture in any way. It's totally just a small reflecting mirror for the same things that go on in larger culture.

आजकल पंक में हमें "विरोध का विरोध" देखने को मिलता है: कोई कुछ नया लाता है, अगली पीढ़ी उसका विरोध करती है, फिर उसके बाद वाली पीढ़ी उसका विरोध करती है, और अंत में वह खुद एक समस्या बन जाती है। इसमें विरोध की इतनी परतें हैं कि ज़्यादातर बस स्वार्थ से भरी होती हैं। इसका बड़ी आज़ादी से कोई लेना-देना नहीं है।
What we get in punk these days is the "anti-anti": Someone comes up with something, then the next generation is against that, and then the next generation is against that, and then that thing becomes a problem. There's these layers of anti-, and so many of them are just so self-serving. It's not about larger freedom.

मैंने 4 जुलाई को वॉर्प्ड टूर (Warped Tour) के दौरान वेगास में शादी की थी—मेरी ज़िंदगी इतनी पागलपन भरी रही है।
I got married in Vegas on Warped Tour on July 4 - that's how crazy my life has been.

भले ही यह आज के दौर में चलन में न हो, लेकिन अपने दिल की बात कहें और जो कहें, उसे पूरी ईमानदारी से कहें। अपने विचारों पर विश्वास रखें, सही समय ज़रूर आएगा। हो सकता है कि वह समय अभी न आया हो, पर आएगा ज़रूर।
Even though it's an unpopular paradigm, wear your heart on your sleeve, and mean what you say. Believe in what you say, and there will be a time for that. Maybe that time hasn't come yet, but there will be a time for that.
