I got into pop and stuff like that from my mom, [and] my dad was in a blues band. My parents split up when I was 3 and divorced when I was 7. I would spend the week in Belleville with my mom, which is North Jersey. On the weekends, I would go down to hang out with my dad and go see him play. We'd have these really long drives, too. We'd have an hour-and-a-half drive down and an hour-and-a-half drive up every weekend [where] we had a lot of time to listen to the radio or listen to tapes or just talk. During the day, we would listen to whatever tapes he had in the car. It was stuff that I wasn't hearing on the radio. I was hearing Buddy Guy and Muddy Waters, Robert Johnson, Freddie King and all these players.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAfter being exposed to a variety of artists and genres at a young age, Iero became involved in the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003epunk\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e community.

I do like that type of thing. I think as a listener, it's comforting to have a bit of a road map. As far as having a character, storyline, or trajectory, I go in fresh every time. I think that helps record with different people, recording in different cities [and] forcing yourself out of your comfort zone. Those are the things that interest me.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhether you’ve been a fan of Iero since he hit the stage in a popped collar polo shirt or you discovered him through his solo ventures, there’s nothing standing in his way.
