When I sing the songs, there's a color tone and a place, and it's not a place that I remember in reality. It's usually based on a photo that I took - 'cause those photos don't look like the real world. The film distorts them, and the colors get exaggerated.

I didn't want to do a double album. I just felt like the last two records I made were like that, and a lot of records I was buying were like that, and it started to feel like it was too much music to digest at once.

Twitter is so stupid. I mean, it sucks! It's not a good way to communicate and it's really difficult to use it for any functional thing.

I think that I probably inevitably fetishize nature, although I try not to, because it's kind of embarrassing, repulsive behavior. I think it's just an extension of me being old-fashioned.

It's nice to have a band that can adapt to whatever show we're in, so we can play on a big stage or a house show.

When someone close to you dies, the line is shifted really drastically about what is meaningful and what isn't.

Whenever I get a tweet that's trying to promote a thing someone cares about, I'm like, "how annoying!"
