There's no point that an album should sound like a watered down version of another album.

Lyrics are back, maybe. It seems like there was a bit of an attitude that lyrics are not important.

There's always a chance, a goal to make something different and get it right, finally.

Well, you know, it's a younger person, and it was maybe an effort to be a little more sincere and adult about the lyrics occasionally, which is a good thing. It's nice that it's not too self-conscious like some of our lyrics could be.

We're not on a desperate mission to write chart compatible stuff.

It's hard to think back. I didn't even know I was going to do it, make actual records. But I was always making up songs, once I figured out that you could do it. I think it's pretty much the same, but there's less urge to get it moving out there. There was a time when it seemed like it was really super important to the audience and now it's just medium-important for people to like us. But that's okay.

I'm more into describing a scenario and I move around in that scenario.
