MJ - "Are
there any bands out there right now that you really like to listen to? Anything that might
influence what you're doing?"
JY - "You know, I've always been a fan of heavy rock. I love Ozzy Osborne's No More
Tears. For me, that really captures a contemporary heavy powerful rock sound. It's almost
anthemic but it's got that element of the 60's, so it's got an element of the past that's
kind of updated. And that's what I'm trying to do here...do a contemporary heavy rock
thing and there will be no ballads. This is a very different thing that what Styx is
perceived as today but it's a lot what Styx was, maybe in 1975." |
