People are buying more vinyl now than they did in the late '90s or 2000s. I like having different mediums of the record. It's always interesting to see how the tapes end up looking because they are so tiny.

More quotes by Angel Olsen
I sometimes write as if I were talking to myself, or to a mirror, or to someone for the last time. There's this element of confrontation.
Angel Olsen
My first ever tour of my music was in the Netherlands. I didn't really have a grace period to grow or anything, people just started booking for me. I feel pretty lucky.
Angel Olsen
When people disappoint you, it's just as much your responsibility to be aware of it and what you don't want.
Angel Olsen
I'd rather people interpret the songs and get whatever they can out of them instead of thinking about me crying in a room with a guitar.
Angel Olsen
I just want to scream: I'm being honest, I swear! Maybe it's embarrassing, but I don't care anymore.
Angel Olsen
There's a lot of expectation after you do something that seems to have been well received. It's kind of unfair.
Angel Olsen
In the music industry, it's pretty easy to make an album just because you want to keep going, like, 'This is the formula.' But the formula is your life. You have to live your life and you have to live it well - that's the formula.
Angel Olsen
I listen to tapes a lot. I have a car that only (has a cassette player). I like the nostalgic factor.
Angel Olsen
The family that raised me are awesome people and they are my mother and my father and my brother and my sister. I've never viewed them as these strangers that took over. It's never been this crazy, dramatic, Lifetime-movie situation. It's been chill.
Angel Olsen
I'm sure that the meaning of the songs that I've written will change for me over the years, the same way that I can't even say what inspired some of the songs that I've been singing for a long time anymore.
Angel Olsen
It's very important to enjoy time alone with yourself and just existing, because existence is kind of cool.
Angel Olsen
If you can't be psyched about your own thoughts, then how are you supposed to have a meaningful interaction with anyone?
Angel Olsen
I don't believe people when they say their songs have nothing to do with their personal life.
Angel Olsen
I enjoy singing the songs a certain way, but I don't even know how the writing even began. To me, it's work that is kind of invisible it's a weird kind of work to have because you're not working, but it's not not work. Formulating your thoughts and making a melody that's catchy enough for people to listen to what you're saying is really hard!
Angel Olsen
People should know each other because they want to, because they have things in common.
Angel Olsen
I learned how to be more theatrical and have more fun, and to take a song and sing it over and over again in different ways, and make it different each time. I'm not just singing the song - it's this thing that's affecting me.
Angel Olsen
Go and experience life the way that someone else might experience it. Maybe you'll find meaning in a different corner of your brain. The fact that it changed doesn't negate the fact that it ever mattered.
Angel Olsen
I guess that in a lot of ways, my writing is more of a character to me than something that I feel personally attached to.
Angel Olsen
I'm letting the songs breathe and change and become what they are without force.
Angel Olsen
You get to a certain age and it really occurs to you: My mother and my father will not always be here. My spouse or my girlfriend or boyfriend are here right now, but someday they won't be. You realize that you need to like yourself.
