I idolised bands like Pearl Jam and Smashing Pumpkins, who wanted to reach as many people as they could.

My girlfriend is a fashion designer. She has her own company called Rachel Antonoff. She is doing a collaboration with Urban Outfitters right now, a shoe collaboration with Bass. She sells to Barneys, stuff like that.

Lyrics are so important, I hate every second of writing them, but it's something I take great pride in when it's finished.

The Queen and Electric Light Orchestra harmonies are so distinct and fit in our songs so well sometimes, but we don't know how to do them properly.

May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground.

It's the coolest part about writing music. I don't know how other people work, but so much is derived from some amalgamation of all these different songs that I love. That's why they jump all over the place.

I kind of like being depressed.
