I love electronic music as much as I love something that sounds like 'Pullhair Rubeye,' or something a little bit more organic than that.

I'm not against being proud of where you come from but I feel like sometimes the divisions are a little too bold and it hurts us more than it helps us.

Things have changed. The suburbs are developed, but other parts, like where we recorded Spirit and Danse Manatee are still woodland and farmland.

I just had a really crappy time in school and I spent a lot of time writing songs and not doing work. I started talking to Noah - Panda Bear - about recording a really solid album, spending a lot of time on it to get it to sound exactly the way we wanted it to.

We're all living in different states and we all have different systems within those states. Even on the most basic personal level, it affects me.

Music can be so manipulating - especially in terms of horror. It's such an important part of building the tension.

There's something scary about the unknown. And maybe the scariest movies couldn't ever be made because they are too deep in somebody's head, too unknown to get out.
