I love getting out there and traveling and doing shows and all of that. But when I can be home, it's a special time.

I'll put out an album, and people review it, and some people love it, and some people tear it apart. By nature of the project, I've always wanted this to be something where people react strongly to it.

I wanted to make experimental music out of pop.

I do have some weeks coming up in the summer where I will actually be in my house, and I love working on new music and all of that.

The goal of the work is always for it to come across as original material, as transformative material.

In 1990 if you heard a song on the radio and you really wanted to hear it again you'd have to buy it on tape or CD. Hearing music doesn't hold that kind of value anymore because anyone can hear it. It's going to become even easier.

When people come to my shows they know there is a distinct beginning and end. It's difficult for me to play for much more than an hour, so people kind of come out and treat it like a rock show. They're fiending and ready to dance.
