I would never be angry at someone for downloading the album. Sometimes people just wanna listen to it first to see if they like it and that's totally fair.

It is definitely much easier to feel that an album is disposable - to dismiss an album or delete the tracks you don't like or to just throw it into shuffle or whatever.

There's a particular trend towards the empty pop song right now. Where people are like, "This. Is. Brilliant. She's singing about a crush on somebody. Wowww." You know what I mean? There's a weird, I don't know... It's called "poptimism."

People digest and process music differently, and I'm sure that was the case even when I was a kid.

It's really hard to maintain a band as a democracy. Again, I think there's been a shift. There's a lot of emphasis put on style and a singular personality, as opposed to a more anonymous group of people playing music. It's more about can I dress this person up? Are they going to look pretty? I feel like the cult of personality is back, for sure.

I think there is a fascination with choral music in general.

I think sometimes I get overly excited about adding things and having new ideas. You forget that more isn't always better.
