I Make The Songs And Part Of

Sometimes We Need To Tell Ourselves That We're Not Going To Do Certain Things, Just In Order To Stay Sane.

Venues Are All The Same, All Feel The Same, These Generic Blank Spaces. I Like Artists Like Lightning Bolt-bands That Go In And Kind Of Change Things Every Time, Play On The Floor, Set Up In The Middle Of The Room. They Go In And They Reinvent The Space Every Time, Which I Feel Is Like The Kind Of Thing That Should Just Be Happening.

For Me, Promotional Thing About Some New Album Coming Out Destroys A Lot Of The Excitement Of Making Records. Records, Movies, Books - They're Not Supposed To Be Like Math Books. The Purpose Of Them Is To Kind Of Take Us Out Of Ourselves And Give Us Some Sort Of Alternate Experience Or Respite. To Try To Maximize The Relationship Of Listening To A Record Through Promotion Is Like Experiencing Driving A Car By Reading About Stimulus Programs. It Kind Of Defeats The Purpose.

I Think Everybody Works From A Defensive Position, For The Most Part, In The Film Industry.

I Need To Go Someplace Faraway That Doesn't Have Telephones And Doesn't Have A Record Player And Doesn't Have Movie Theaters And People Walking Down The Street In Order To Not Do Anything.
