“A lot of times, when you record something, the album becomes less abou...” — Lou Barlow Quote

A lot of times, when you record something, the album becomes less about the music and more technical.

I don't know if i have a 'take' on L.A. The music community is enormous, from the studio musicians to the bands trying to 'make it' to the indie bands... so many bands... it can be overwhelming. But it seems healthy.

To bicker over what could have been is silly.

I love making records, and part of really doing that and being happy about it is just that each time I've done something, I come to terms with what maybe is wrong with it, and then I move on to the next thing.

All the issues you deal with get more complicated as you get older; it takes more focus to write songs that reflect what you've gone through.

The only technical things I know are treble, volume and reverb, that's all.

Love scenes in general are the most technical things to shoot.

I didn't go to film school. My Grampa always says just watch a lot of movies. He didn't go to film school; he went to theatre school. It's interesting to learn about the technical side of it, but I think it's more important to learn about writing and working with actors.

We live in a technical society.

We have travelled so far in our technical advancements that we are no longer located in our own countries.
