We just wanted to make something that we thought was beautiful-sounding and special, ... but how do you go about doing that? I don't know. But as far as sound goes, I don't worry about that. It takes care of itself.

If I was a betting man, ... I'd say the malls of America wouldn't embrace our type of music anyhow. Let's just say we're a discriminating-palate kind of band.

We're realistic about knowing that we're not out to hit the mainstream, ... We're trying to make great music for the time, but not to make timeless music. You just try to make something special.

CRCR ... goodbye to the rock 'n' roll era.
