Quotes:
- "We are not Simple Plan or Good Charlotte, we don't want to be like that at all, we don't want to be Like Story of the Year or any of those kind, we appreciate those bands and respect them, and they are all great people, but we don't want to be like that, we want to be separate from those bands, we want to do our own thing." —Senses Fail
- "I’m not really that knowledgeable in religion, I have a hobby, I guess I’d say of just looking at that and being interested in it. Not that I have any sort of real knowledge of it. It’s basically more prevalent on the last record I don’t know how much it’s going to be discussed in this record." —Buddy Nielsen
