This full interview was one of my favorite interviews ever. It really shows how willing rollins is to change his opinion and admit he could be wrong if he was wrong. What i mean is, rollins came into the stern compound that day in a very defensive way, but once he got in the studio and talked to howard for a few minutes, he dropped lowered his guard because he saw that stern wasn’t this “horrible monster” that he was made out to be. Rollins lightened up and was even man enough to admit he thought stern was gonna be an ass, and i really admire that in a person. I like when people are truly un-biased and aren’t attached to an idea. This was a great interview and i wish the whole thing was available on youtube again.

Black Flag was highly influential on the Seattle music scene in the late-80s and early-90s. Their tour for the My War album in the Pacific Northwest was a formative experience for lots of musicians, most notably Kurt Cobain. They basically invented sludge metal. A lot of their music was very experimental at a time when hardcore punk music was pretty straightforward. Black Flag is probably your favorite band's favorite band.

@pbaker: I have a terrible speaking voice despite years of speech therapy early on. I cannot sing. When people have insisted that I sing along quietly to the National Anthem, they regret it! Henry Rollins is aware that Al Green and Mahalia Jackson could sing, and that he could not. I like to listen to Tom Waits songs. Bob Dylan never had a good voice, it just got much worse. The “Oscar the Grouch” or “Cookie Monster” vocals of “black metal” are grating and yet somehow fascinating in moderation. Not everyone is Beverly Sills or Tom Jones. And that doesn’t matter to me. I do like meaningful lyrics though! I like phrasing and timing and context. I’ll take Rollins. And that leaves more U2 purchases available for you. We’re both happy!

Ive been a U2 fan since 1988. Love them but Henry is right in this interview. Pop was the last album where U2 took a risk. Since then, they played it safe with thier music. Resulting in the music getting more boring and predictable. There are a handful.of songs they have written since 2000 that I feel are genuinely good. Invisible, Red Flag Day, Every Breaking Wave but no where near as good as the 80s and 90s. Even Zooropa has some great stuff.on it.

While I agree with most of what you said, I think No Line In the Horizon was their last risky record. There was a ton of experimentation on that record.

Rock and Roll is a young man's game. Besides, it's hard to be pissed off when you've got near abouts a billion dollars in the bank like Bono does. You can say what you want about U2, they've been around since 78. First album in 80. And still with the original line up and Bono married to the same woman. Not too many bands can say that. And, their live shows are still second to none.

@garibaldi54: Cash and Bowie put out salient message material late in their lives, their music living on from early to late. Neither was a flash in the pan. Neither lip synced their way to brief international acclaim. People can grasp that their lives are draining away, and perhaps utilize that last dying sunlight to paint a brilliant portrait of their vision. Please don’t tag financial success - ticket sales, download purchases, wearable concert swag buys - as meters of meaningfulness! In two decades people will look up Henry Rollins and U2 in “Who’s Who in Rock Music, 1990 - 2030.” There will be mention of the has-beens. One entry will state “seminal,” “important early,” “coarse and abrasive,” “opinionated and not of even good voice.” The other entry will read, “one of the biggest bands of its era,” “put out a vast number of frequently similar, but likable songs which were popular at karaoke bars, especially after 2-4-1 Happy Hour.” So be it.

But since Bono is so pretentious and has become so overly-political he's turned into a complete douche, so I don't care about Rollins talking shit about him (though what he said about their rhythm section is pretty much true). However, Sting has way more talent in a pimple forming on his ass than this Rollins will ever have! Sting is a fantastic bassist, singer, guitarist, pianist, songwriter, and producer. Rollins is a punk rock (i.e. sloppy musician) singer. I mean, if he could even play bass, guitar, or drums on a sloppy punk rock level that would be one thing, but he can't. A punk rock singer has about as much musical talent as a rapper. I mean, him talking shit about sting is an absolute joke!

See, that’s the problem with a lot of punk guys is they don’t actually understand music and what constitutes good playing, they just rather be angry at show how cool they are by not liking popular things. Anybody who thinks just because they don’t like something they have to put it down and if they don’t like it, it must be terrible is not someone who has a good grasp of actual art.

I don't agree with all of Rollins' opinions by a long shot. But if you listen to some of his interviews or read some of his writing when he talks about jazz, I'd say he understands music and what constitutes good playing. I think he just has a default mode of "going for the kill" in regards to stuff he doesn't like...music or otherwise.

U2 was a band that used to make people feel. They were awesome, caring, they love one another. I haven’t listened to them since 1999 about, but for my money they were one of the greatest bands ever. That said, Rollins was spot on about Ween, and his spoken word and books have been part of my entire adult life since I was 16, so I count him as one of the greats. Just not in musical form. Rollins band was crap even live. I only saw them because they played right before Ween at a festival.

I’m not the biggest U2 fan. But saying that their rhythm section sucks really shows what a one dimensional musician Henry Rollins is and why he is limited to yelling into a microphone and not much else. I did actually like that Rollins Band album a lot because of the guys he had in his band. But if you know anything about musicianship, you know that Larry Mullins and Adam Clayton are a rock solid ace fucking rhythm section who hold that shit down. That’s all you need from a rhythm section. And Edge has written endless memorable riffs.

Which I get since most of their songs have a political lean to them. But he also did some weird performance art type thing about him selling out and not being Irish enough or something. IDK it was very weird. They still sounded great but it's not something I would want to sit through again. Concert's are supposed to be fun. And when I am paying 300-500 bucks for a seat at your show I don't want to leave going omg the world is a horrible place and so am I.

I disagree. U2 is hit or miss for me. Some of their songs I think are great, and others not. Mostly, I think it stems from a trend that it's cool to hate on U2. And the more they're hated, the more people feel guilty for liking them. I challenge that. U2 was a band that had a unique sound - like them or not. I don't like the Edge as a person - he seems pretentious to me, and so does Bono at times - but there are worse people in the world to hate. I like Henry Rollins, but he's one to talk when he starts in on Sting - someone who can actually sing, and Henry can't sing - he's admitted to that.

What i mean is, rollins came into the stern compound that day in a very defensive way, but once he got in the studio and talked to howard for a few minutes, he dropped lowered his guard because he saw that stern wasn’t this “horrible monster” that he was made out to be. Rollins lightened up and was even man enough to admit he thought stern was gonna be an ass, and i really admire that in a person.

Black Flag was highly influential on the Seattle music scene in the late-80s and early-90s. Their tour for the My War album in the Pacific Northwest was a formative experience for lots of musicians, most notably Kurt Cobain. They basically invented sludge metal. A lot of their music was very experimental at a time when hardcore punk music was pretty straightforward. Black Flag is probably your favorite band's favorite band.

@pbaker: I have a terrible speaking voice despite years of speech therapy early on. I cannot sing. When people have insisted that I sing along quietly to the National Anthem, they regret it! Henry Rollins is aware that Al Green and Mahalia Jackson could sing, and that he could not. I like to listen to Tom Waits songs. Bob Dylan never had a good voice, it just got much worse. The “Oscar the Grouch” or “Cookie Monster” vocals of “black metal” are grating and yet somehow fascinating in moderation. Not everyone is Beverly Sills or Tom Jones. And that doesn’t matter to me. I do like meaningful lyrics though! I like phrasing and timing and context. I’ll take Rollins. And that leaves more U2 purchases available for you. We’re both happy!

Ive been a U2 fan since 1988. Love them but Henry is right in this interview. Pop was the last album where U2 took a risk. Since then, they played it safe with thier music. Resulting in the music getting more boring and predictable. There are a handful.of songs they have written since 2000 that I feel are genuinely good. Invisible, Red Flag Day, Every Breaking Wave but no where near as good as the 80s and 90s. Even Zooropa has some great stuff.on it.

While I agree with most of what you said, I think No Line In the Horizon was their last risky record. There was a ton of experimentation on that record.

You can say what you want about U2, they've been around since 78. First album in 80. And still with the original line up and Bono married to the same woman. Not too many bands can say that. And, their live shows are still second to none.

@garibaldi54: Cash and Bowie put out salient message material late in their lives, their music living on from early to late. Neither was a flash in the pan. Neither lip synced their way to brief international acclaim. People can grasp that their lives are draining away, and perhaps utilize that last dying sunlight to paint a brilliant portrait of their vision. Please don’t tag financial success - ticket sales, download purchases, wearable concert swag buys - as meters of meaningfulness! In two decades people will look up Henry Rollins and U2 in “Who’s Who in Rock Music, 1990 - 2030.” There will be mention of the has-beens. One entry will state “seminal,” “important early,” “coarse and abrasive,” “opinionated and not of even good voice.” The other entry will read, “one of the biggest bands of its era,” “put out a vast number of frequently similar, but likable songs which were popular at karaoke bars, especially after 2-4-1 Happy Hour.” So be it.

How is the naming relevant to ego, marketing, name recognition, recollection in the record racks, etc.? Eponymous band names haven’t anything to do with quality or salient points. Cher, Van Halen, Dokken, Johnny Cash, Eno, Robin Trower, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, JRV, Ted Nugent, Barry Manilow, OPETH, Les Claypool, Quattro, Roger Walters, Robert Palmer, Suzi and The Banshees, Tim McGraw, Perry Farell, Pharrell, X, Bonham, Tina Turner, Tori Amos, Janis Ian, Bob Dylan, Roy Orbison, K.C. and The Sunshine Band, OZZY, Dick Dale…. I don’t have to like or not like anyone or anything because they are not marketed as or performing as The Electric Light Orchestra, The Beatles, The Bangles, Peter Frampton is perfectly equal as a performer/band name as QUEEN or Alice Cooper, Lynard Skynard, Alice In Chains, Cinderella, XTC, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, RUSH, YES, The Cramps, Suicide Commandos (who played a dance at my high school back “then”…), Husker Du, The Replacements, The Wailers, Chameleon, Dare Force, Savage Aural Hotbed, Harsh Reality, All the Pretty Horses, Autonomy, Flat Atom, IMPALER, or Def Leppart.

However, Sting has way more talent in a pimple forming on his ass than this Rollins will ever have! Sting is a fantastic bassist, singer, guitarist, pianist, songwriter, and producer. Rollins is a punk rock (i.e. sloppy musician) singer. I mean, if he could even play bass, guitar, or drums on a sloppy punk rock level that would be one thing, but he can't. A punk rock singer has about as much musical talent as a rapper. I mean, him talking shit about sting is an absolute joke!

But if you know anything about musicianship, you know that Larry Mullins and Adam Clayton are a rock solid ace fucking rhythm section who hold that shit down. That’s all you need from a rhythm section. And Edge has written endless memorable riffs.

I still enjoy U2's music but when I finally saw them in concert it was a bit underwhelming. Bono is very preachy about his politics. Which I get since most of their songs have a political lean to them. But he also did some weird performance art type thing about him selling out and not being Irish enough or something. IDK it was very weird. They still sounded great but it's not something I would want to sit through again. Concert's are supposed to be fun.
