They wrote themselves out of the band history, as far as I'm concerned. They should have a little bit of honor. This is supposed to be rock 'n' roll. This is supposed to be friendly. This is like going through the trenches together. |
Those guys were kind of out of the picture a long time ago. We've been working with [the new band members] for like eight years. |
We didn't want a hybrid of the old stuff. The old records were very dense musically. Now there's a trend towards minimalist sound. That's the main thing. |
We exploded after a while and made a lot of horrendously stupid mistakes. |
We're a pop art band. Not a pop band. |
