When you do a song new live on stage, it's kind of a bit weird until it gets worn in, you know, like oiled up a bit. It's still a little bit stiff until you really thrashed at it for a few weeks.

I think from the age of thirteen, I really wanted to be a producer and I've always thought that the producer was the top of the tree.

I just realized how long it was since the last album, and where did the time go? You know?

I don't actually like touring.

I like the natural sound of a room. All the rooms have their own sound, so it's a matter of putting it where you like and seeing what it sounds like.

I just want to be in the studio. When you've got all the gear you want in your own house, it's difficult to go out and do something else, you know?

At the end of the day I have to please myself. And I've made a record to please myself.
