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.

This is the life I live, and this is the stuff I experience. And like any good writer, I should just write about what goes in my life and what goes on around me. So that's what I chose to do.

I like to get everything done during the early morning hours and the early part of the day.

If you want to do a movie about aliens coming down to Earth nowadays, you need to do it with a smile.

I probably watch movies more than I actually listen to music, I think.

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.

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