I have really low self-esteem, and it's not easy for me to put myself on an album cover.
Bradford Cox
Image
I'm real critical of myself. I think a lot of what I've done is boring indie rock. I didn't intend it to be that way, but somehow milk gets added to everything.

When I started having a couple of beers and loosening up, I realized how many years I had wasted going back to my hotel room alone when I could have gone and just had a beer or two.

Image
I always write the first and last song of an album first, and then the middle just kind of happens.

I think the younger kids need to realize there's this whole forgotten 90s that people don't really talk about.
Bradford Cox
Image
I don't leave my room, and all I am surrounded by are guitars and equipment, y'know? It's not always the best place to be.

I don't have anything to prove.

What could be more experimental than me writing a straight up love song?
Bradford Cox
Image
You're always as a musician trying to shock yourself or create music that's maybe even too weird for your own taste. In my case it's kind of weird because I started out being known more for ambient things and ambiguous music, but what's experimental for me is the more traditional structure. For me, experimenting involves traditionalism.

The Internet nowadays is all sensationalism, and it's just terrifying when you're actually experiencing it as a person.
Bradford Cox
Image
I'm tired of watching attractive people trying to be ugly, struggling for authenticity. Why not be yourself?

I'm a really friendly guy, I guess, and I really like meeting people.

When I do a record, it sounds more punk and raw. Or it will sound louder, or it will sound more shocking. Or mind-boggling. I'll be trying to figure it out, but once I've got it figured out I'll be like, I know this I know where this came from. I think art is most interesting when the intention is not clear.
