It's about respecting what I think people like about the original music. I'm not gonna ever take it to the extent that I'm kinda George Lucas-ing moments of the album over and over again, trying to get them right over the next 30 years - I don't wanna do anything like that. But, yeah - it's a... fascinating conundrum through the years.

I always managed to fly a bit below the radar, but high enough to avoid colliding into anything.

Things go wrong when the people who control that world stop listening to their own instincts and start catering to their fan base.

Any good album title has multiple meanings, and I like choosing titles where I find myself repeating it, almost like a mantra.

I've always been compared to people. It's a revolving cast that comes and goes - obviously, sometimes people stay.

It's satisfying to put out new music. And I think that's the context in which I'm comfortable revisiting things from the past.

The music that I have always liked has always been more rooted in anger or sadness or alienation or any of those inspirational factors that drove rock'n'roll, gospel, and blues. I tend not to value a more pop aesthetic.
