Unfortunately people sometimes suppress their lust. And it's not only sex. It could be lusting for anything really, anything that's supposedly very bad for you but can be good for you, too.

It's not really a conscious decision to do a quiet album or a noisier album. It's just something that happens, I guess.

I guess my life was in a pretty disorderly fashion, so I think the music came out that way a little bit.

I do question a band's longevity, because most of my favorite bands only made one or two good albums. After that, I didn't care about them anymore. Sometimes I wonder if people feel the same thing about us. The way I look at it is, if we can continue to inspire ourselves and write really beautiful music that we're proud of, I don't think there's any intention to stop.

I'm just the kind of person who needs a change every once in a while. I'm not comfortable staying in the same spot for too long. Even 10 years, for me, is a very long time. I usually don't stay longer than a few years in a place.

I always put a little bit of restrictions on myself, and I only do it for my creativity.

I like to think that the music is a mixture of personal experiences mixed with photography and movies.
