In OK Computer, the guitar was already moving towards a tone generator as well as a riff generator.

Limits are very important.

When we rehearse, we're always trying to aim for something else. But we never quite succeed in getting there.

We are kind of one step removed, not really in the center of things.

I think the biggest problem we have is taking too long over things. Not in terms of getting it right, but sometimes we do things quickly that are really good.

I mean, I'm in a band, we're reasonably successful, I've got a very nice suit - I'm not even a bad person- so why can't I get a shag?

I don't think anything's underground anymore. And I think that's a good thing. Everything is up for grabs.
