Even though the album is an endangered species, can we try and make a coherent and good one, even if it's like making a horse and cart at a Nascar conference?
I never talk about my wife: we're both in public professions but we try to keep our private life private.
Those have been the two biggest challenges of my life: trying to follow Radiohead, and trying to follow Brad Pitt.
Remember that we're only on our third record, which is not really a lot. We live in the era of trilogies, and we definitely feel like the first three records mark the end of a phase for us.

We all agreed that philosophically, it was not OK, and ethically, it wasn't OK. We're going to take the word 'divert' totally out of our vocabulary.
