Sometimes I forget that the label's been around so long that some of the bands they're singing now might be influenced by the first wave of Sub Pop bands. Is there anyone on that label that you look up to or borrow from?

Sometimes bigger cities, just because there's so much going on, people are a little more jaded.

Licensing can be great. You get money for work that's already done. It's not a horrible thing to me, there's just some things I don't want to soundtrack.

I rely on swearing just to communicate emotion, but I wanted to express the same feelings [in song] without using curse words.

I'm not trying to cut myself off from the rest of the culture by not licensing.

I wish that I myself did have faith in God, that I had a religion, sometimes. But not always.
