I don't think all the record has a radical, political, overthrow-the-government sort of vibe to it, but I think some of it does. But I don't want anyone to think that I really am trying to overthrow the government with our music, or stop the war with our music - that's just for fools.

Music - music that moves you - usually comes because something horrible has happened to you. It's cathartic. I think music does that better than almost any other art form, because most of our lives are about things that don't work out.

It really is no different in the way that we make records and shoot music videos. I don't think of the movie as being a great leap out of my current profession.

We love playing music but we're too weird to play music.

We made music that wouldn't be in synch.
