"it's been going on for so long now,people still don't know if he's a girl or a boy." Steve Hewitt on brian molko
"We're definately up for world domination." Steve
"There's this thing going around in the British press about how I'm American...It's like, what are you talking about?? I'm from Manchester!" Steve
"i shouted, i spat, i grew a big forked tail and horns. you really wouldn't want to have been there." Steve Hewitt on fighting with his ex girlfriend
"This is the man who wants to be black - every soundcheck, the drumbeat to 'sexy motherfucker' is there.....Steve plays with his body. He doesn't think about it, it just flows out. From his big black cock." Brian on Steve
"He's [Brian] always got pissed and when's he's pissed he's a fucking asshole sometimes. When he gets pissed it's just 'me' and 'my band'. And I'm like, 'I will fucking kill you!'" Steve on Brian...can you feel the love?
Steve: We're definately not doing this to get with Hole.
NME: You're saying Stefan wouldn't cop off with Courtney, even to help further your careers?
Brian: I don't think Stefan would be prepared to shag any woman to further his career.
Stefan: No.
B: Would you shag Billy Pumpkin, Stefan?
St: He doesn't like me anyways. I've insulted him enough.
B: It was after the Brixton show and I hadn't drunk for awhile and blacked out and came to in a lobby of this hotel with the Pumpkins and found Stefan running around with two 'Access All Areas' passes on his nipples...
St: On my nipples. And I was having a chat with Billy Pumpkin in thissurreal situation and- it came from nowhere- 'So, Billy (pause), the way you write music (longer pause), has it changed since you shaved your head?' And he just walked off with disgusted look on his face and took his whole entourage with him.
"Brian is probably the most confused woman I've met in my entire life. I wish he had more luck in love. He deserves it. He is the artist formerly known as punk." Steve on Brian
"It's almost bordering on cliche but Hewitt and Olsdal are my best friends in the world...They are like my two husbands. I've never felt more at home anywhere. I love them more than I have loved any other men on this planet in my life. They are both very beautiful people, as fucked up as I am -- true. Acts of God aside, this is why this band will be here for quite some time."
Brian on the band
the following quotes are frum Swallow
"We did an ill-fated German tour, playing heavy metal clubs, poodle-rock places with punters in Spandex. We were in Leipzig and the lighting guy had some incredible skunk, which is rare for East [sic] Germany, so during the soundcheck we got very creative and started writing the album. The gig was shit, though, because we'd spent all our creativity on the soundcheck." - Steve '98
"I've got a kid, an ex-girlfriend and a band leader I've got to keep in check. I'm
going to go into social work when all this is finished." - Steve '97
"We would never vomit in each other’s mouths. We draw some lines.” - Steve '98
“It’s why this country needs a proper, integrated, free public transport system. Get the busses running,. Then people won’t take smack.” - Steve '98
"We'd score a bit of weed and it gets translated [in the press] into cocaine or heroin." - Steve '98
