Neurosis
SPB: Personally speaking, what is the least favorite record you’ve released (of your own records, that is)? Why?
Neurosis: No regrets. Everything we have ever done and been a part of has made us who we are today. Each is crucial to our evolution as a band and human beings.
I first discovered the New York Dolls in the mid-to-late 1980s, just as I was beginning to stretch the boundaries of my musical journey.
