Sometimes we have criticism that is very constructive.

I'd rather be a comma than a full stop.

Music is split up now into little pockets.

As an artist, one doesn't know what is real. And so there's a search and a process of trying to locate something that feels or appears or somehow resonates with us on a deeper level. This is why art is such an interesting business to be in.

Even when other people don’t expect a lot out of you,you have to take the initiative.

We rely more on enthusiasm than actual skill. Whatever you do, do it enthusiastically and people will like it more.

Before our albums are released I feel like we still own it, that we have control over our music. But once it's out there in the world it's no longer ours.
