The notes sound like they're coming from inside your mind... It was the closest thing to a psychedelic experience I've ever had.

I only write maybe one or two songs every couple of years that I think are good enough to play alone without other stuff happening.

Our vocal harmonies started to feel like a cop-out: all group-singing, all the time.

We're going out to play all the places where people might want to see us, because next time we might not just think about hitting every market or how we can make the most money.

I love Seattle, but I am definitely excited to be in a new place. Growing up there and then living in an apartment in the city for seven years, I just felt stagnant.

The lyrics to me are a result of the emotional and creative climate present while making the record as well as personally going through a sort of mid-twenties stock-taking.

At the end of the day, for people in this position, you just need to make something that feels like you're expressing yourself honestly, something that you'd want to listen to. The rest of the aesthetic is kind of bullshit, and I don't mean that in a negative way - just that it's a choice.
