I've made records that everyone has hated and I've loved, and made records that everyone has loved and I've deemed, at best, mediocre.

I was never encouraged to believe anything. I was brought up in a profoundly agnostic or pantheistic community.

To me, one of the easiest ways of addressing climate change and potentially remedying climate change is to stop subsidizing animal agriculture.

I like noise. It's always puzzled me why one of the goals of contemporary recording is to get rid of noise and to eliminate any element of a performance.

This isn't like naming your dog Spot.

There are viable (and usually better) alternatives to the use of animals for food, sport, clothing, & experimentation. I beg you to discontinue any actions that might cause or condone animal torture, abuse, or destruction.

Basically we should stop doing those things that are destructive to the environment, other creatures, and ourselves and figure out new ways of existing.
