I'm learning about filming, and just conceptualizing as well. I think it's a good artistic inroad, even to music as well.

Basically, we've learned to delegate. We just grew tired of becoming too psychotic and straining to make the records ourselves.

Lazy Line Painter Jane - it was an insane way to make a record! It was just in a church hall, no separate rooms for instruments, and a crappy digital desk, and I think it's fantastic. I think it's one of the best records we ever made. But if you actually said that to a professional recording engineer or producer they'd laugh at you.

I think for a group that has a reputation for being shy and elusive, we're actually outspoken.

I grew up reading biographies on groups, and I love all that. The thing about biographies, it's the old cliché but it's true - a lot of the time these things are more about the author than they are about the group.

I think every record, good or bad, is a representation of us.
