No Matter What People Are Struggling With,

I'm Interested In The Crevices, And The Grotesque, And The Unsavory. That Started Out When I Was Young... I've Never Quite Been Able To Shake That.

People Give The Words Life Through Their Own Adoration Or Relationship To The Work, And That's True Of Everything. You Can't Divorce Critical Or Fan Reaction. Once It Exists, You Forget That The Words Are Arbitrary, Or You Start To Remove Value.

When I'm Cynical, I Seek Out Bands That Are Fully Participating And Trying To Push Something Forward. Or I Can Just Start Playing Music Again - Which Is Happening With A New Project. But I Think It's Always A Challenge To Overcome Cynicism And Not Get Bogged Down By A Sense Of Nostalgia. That Can Be Such A Stifling Feeling.

I Don't Think You Need To Sound Like From Where You're From. But I Think There Is Something Magical And Powerful About Encompassing Something Fully And Singularly.

I Like To Connect With People Through My Work. That's My Favorite Way - Meetings Of The Minds, Fans At A Show. Those Are Nice Mediated Ways Of Hanging Out.
