When you make a melody that doesn't come with words from the get-go, sometimes you're just thinking about random vowel sounds that go with it - and it's really, really hard to write lyrics that actually obey the vowel sounds.

There's a certain power in vague language, but I started to get more into the idea of really trying to have a discrete thought in the lyrics and to have songs that were about stuff - to try to make things more coherent.

I'm super interested in visual, and I love that being in a band can be as much about making an image as it is about making a sound.

Clearly, things are definitely changing in big ways as far as the way we consume music, listen to music, and what we expect from music.
