Fans keep us healthy, keep us not so insular. Through contact with them we learn things. It's strange even hearing that word, fans. I don't think of them as fans. Or else, I am a fan too. We try to blur the distinction between performer and onlooker. We want a direct communication.

Stuart was insisting (we contribute songs), which I thought was a pretty disastrous idea. The first couple of records were very self-contained worlds with a style that was all their own. It struck me as being insane to muddle what was so distinctive in the first place. I thought there would be a decline in quality. And I think there was.

We did pre-production for the first time. He listened to the songs and made suggestions on structure and other things. We're such control freaks, we never let anyone hear anything in the past. But when we recorded, we were prepared we tried really hard to nail every part, every vocal, every guitar. And I think that lends it a certain urgency.
