I Love British Humor. It's Just So

I'm Always Looking For Older Equipment And Ways Of Recording, But You Can't Escape The Fact That It's All Going To Be Digitized And Reduced.

It Was Disturbing To Me That An Idea Or A Song Could Become Something So Different From What You Originally Intended. It's Like If A Friend Took A Stupid Picture Of You At A Party On Their Phone, And The Next Thing You Knew, It Was On Every Billboard.

Back Then, Pro Tools Only Had Four Or Eight Tracks, So We Couldn't Actually Hear All The Tracks. We Could Only Hear Eight At A Time, So If A Song Had 25 Or 30 Tracks, We Wouldn't Be Able To Hear It Until We Went Into The Studio An Put It All On Tape. The Process Was A Little Bit Backwards.

My Whole Generation's Mission Is To Kill The Cliche...it's One Of The Reasons A Lot Of My Generation Are Always On The Fence About Things. They're Afraid To Commit To Anything For Fear Of Seeming Like A Cliche. They're Afraid To Commit To Their Lives Because They See So Much Of The World As A Cliche.

There Are People Who've Prepared Their Whole Lives For Real Heavy Success And Bask In It. They're So Good At It And They Obviously Love It. I'm Just Happy To Be Making A Record.
