I Don't Own Anything Designer.

I Believe The Human Mind Is A Very Fallible Thing, But It's The Only Thing That I Can Really Know, I Guess.

You Don't Just Have To Be Influenced By Rock, Or Goth, Anymore. It's Okay To Say, 'my Influences Are Tin Pan Music From Bali And Rihanna.' There Are Still So Many Combinations That Haven't Been Done Yet.

I Would Never Go To A Studio. I Need My Space, You Know What I Mean? I Need To Be Able To Chain Smoke And Pace About, Cry And Like... Spit. Just Make Noise, Make A Huge Mess. I Also Feel Like If I Was Concerned For The Cost Of The Studio - Like, 'this Is Costing 40 Dollars An Hour' - I Wouldn't Be Able To Work.

If I Think About What Other People Are Thinking When I'm Making Music, I Just Can't Do It. It's Too Withheld - I Need To Go Totally Over The Top, And Then Kind Of Clean It Up A Bit And Make It More Reasonable After The Fact.

I Feel Like Vocals Are To Music What Portraits Are To Painting. They're The Humanity. Landscapes Are Good And Fine, But At The End Of The Day Everyone Loves The Mona Lisa.
