I Kind Of Go In Waves With

If There's Ever A Kid Out There That Can't Afford To Buy The Music, I Still Want Them To Hear It, And Hopefully They'll Go To The Show, Or Buy A T-shirt From The Band. That's The Idea.

Since The Songs Were Written Over A Five-year Period, I Think These Are Little Snapshots. Some People Call It Political Or Topical, But I Think Each Song Is Self-contained. I Think It Fits Together As A Picture Of The Last Half-decade Of Time.

A Kid That Picks Up A Record, He Doesn't Need To Know Anything Other Than The Music And Have It In His Or Her Headphones. They're Getting Ideas Directly, It's Like Someone Whispering In Their Ear. That's Such A Personal Way To Receive Information.

Rock And Roll Seems To Have Had A Mellowing In The Business Where It Got Harder To Sell Individual Records And Make Money Doing That.

Maybe There's A Different Story When It Comes To Hip-hop Or Different Genres, But As Far As Rock Music Goes, I Think There Is A Sort Of Fear Of Saying Things People Might Be Apt To Criticize. Our Band Is The Opposite Of That.
