Silverchair Quotes

We've known each other since kindergarten. We get along well together otherwise we wouldn't be here now.

In primary school when I was a wee lad I saw the school band and thought the drummer was cool, so I decided I wanted to play, went home and was like "mum", at first she was like "oh why drums?, noise" but it was cool eventually and they let me play in the living room which was really good and I made a bloody racket I gotta say ......so thanks mum!

We were all over at the drummer's house and we were requesting some songs on the radio and one of them was oh..."Sliver f**k" or something by the Smashing Pumpkins and the other one was Berlin Chair. We wrote 'em down and someone wrote "Silver Chair" instead of Sliver Chair, and that's how silverchair popped up.

Probably 'cos we've tried to get our own style but not copying people. We like to think we've got our own style. It's not really a different style, it's a bit of a cross-between. We like grunge. And we've added harmonies. The singer did all those himself.

Music obviously, gotta do English and maths, I did marine studies, sport and recreation and we did like a business course and some sound engineering just scratching the surface of that kind of stuff that was all pretty interesting

I've actually been listening to a lot of dancey stuff but not like headache dance, like more the beats stuff, kinda like the Prodigy but with no guitars, Crystal Method, Chemical Brothers, Junkie XL also the usual Led Zeppelin, quite a bit of Jeff Buckley lately, some soundtracks I just got the Shawshank Redemption soundtrack, we heard that song on MTV the Jay Z song and it inspired me to go get the Annie soundtrack too which is fantastic
