Ultimate-Guitar.com. An excerpt is available below:

UG: Subhuman Race was your last album with SKID ROW. Were you looking forward to pursuing a solo career after leaving the band?

Bach: “I never ever, ever, never in a million years wanted to pursue a solo career. That was done out of necessity and also because I have this silly celebrity status of my name. I wanted to use all the TV shows that I do to help my rock and roll career. I get noticed walking down the street for Trailerpark Boys and Gilmore Girls just as much as Skid Row. It depends on what part of town I’m in.”

UG: Are you looking for the type of career that both ROBERT PLANT and ROD STEWART had inasmuch as they both came from rock bands to pursue pretty eclectic solo careers?

Bach: “Yeah, I’m the guy when Robert Plant does an interview and says that he doesn’t want to be in LED ZEPPELIN, he wants to be with ALISON KRAUSS, I’m the guy that respects that. I’m not the guy who goes, [in exaggerated voice], ‘We all need Led Zeppelin.’ I don’t see why he should be; he’s not feeling it. My whole thing is I let the artist be the artist. I don’t watch an artist make art and then cut up his art because it’s his f-ckin’ art. Let him make what he is here to make. Don’t tell Picasso what to paint. ‘Why isn’t he painting this?’ What the f-ck? Let him paint what he wants to paint. Let me sing what I want to sing. I am me. I’m a NEIL YOUNG fan and I don’t listen to his records on samples on Amazon before I buy it—I just go and f-ckin’ buy it ‘cause he’s never let me down before. And even if he makes a record that doesn’t sound like I was expecting, I won’t not like him for it. I kind of listen to it and try and figure out where he’s comin’ from and it’s interesting to me. I don’t need my music to be cookie cutter and all nice and wrapped up nice. I like stuff that’s dangerous and exciting and somethin’ that I never heard before. Somebody said, ‘What’s rock and roll?’ and they said, ‘Somethin’ you’ve never heard before.’ And I was like, ‘That’s a really good way to describe it.’ I don’t want to be bored.”
