When you listen to the music, you see little movies in your head, and that's the beauty of it, I think. People can make up their own stories. They don't necessarily have to know exactly what each song is about. It's their way of interpreting of interpreting different feelings or emotions.

I don't work at night. I'm not very good about working at night. I get tired during the day and I usually like to save my nights to try things out recording.

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 don't really watch too many remakes. I saw Scorsese's version of Cape Fear, which was good. That was a good remake.

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

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