People Are Looking For Fame Or A

I Think That America In General Is Piratical. Every Time We Accept A Paycheck For Doing Almost Nothing, Allowing Us To Live Above The Poverty Line, We're Engaging In Piracy.

I Feel Much More Physically Connected To My Voice, And I Like The Physicality Of The Voice, And How The Voice Can Physically Occupy A Song.

I Still Make Music. I Still Write Music And I Record Music, I Just Don't Trust Music Promotion [and] Distribution Right Now Enough To Record A New Set Of Diligently Worked-upon Compositions. I Do Trust The Audience And The Audiences Very Much.

I Make The Songs And Part Of Making Them Is Singing Them. But What You Hear Is Not Me. It's The Song. It's Through Me.

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.
