I don't believe people when they say their songs have nothing to do with their personal life.

I'm not trying to prove that I'm capable of doing many things.

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.

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.

I'm letting the songs breathe and change and become what they are without force.

I'm ready to take on different selves and experiment and see what happens.

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!

In high school I was in a band called Goodfight, but it was more me running around on stage. It was very punk inspired. Then I started to get into indie-rock and older music and decided I wanted to write my own stuff. I quit the band. Around 16 or 17, I started recording myself at home on keyboard and piano.

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 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.

I don't know what folk music means anymore, because the meaning of that just keeps changing.

You want to create things as purely as possible without allowing the universe to interfere so much that it's manipulating it and making things unreal to you.

My family life, my adoption - it could be related to the songs, but I think the songs are deeper than that. They're not just about this experience.

I've been writing a lot of songs in twos, songs that are like twins in my mind.

Image
People should know each other because they want to, because they have things in common.
Angel Olsen
Image
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
Image
I know it sounds so lame, but the songs are like my children.
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.
