Give Me What You Got
The Dragtones: the Hives, the Hi-Winders and the guy from the San Fernando Valley
"What they fell in love with is what most people fall in love with," Arriaga says. "Any band that records there — it's very 'GIVE ME WHAT YOU GOT! You just got punched in the nuts? Lemme record that! Your girlfriend just fucked your dad? Give me what you fuckin' got!' And you're there and you wanna cry, but you don't wanna show everybody you'd cry so you sing a fucking song — like 'GODDAMN THIS IS IT!' "
That one he wasn't so polite — but he was exactly right, too.
