   "I think we take our music very seriously, we take ourselves very seriously and oftentimes far too seriously - in a time where not many bands even take themselves remotely serious[ly]. So we almost overcompensate, and bands - nomatter how good or how bad people think they are - you're always going to get some negative type of press. We take it like a personal blow, as if someone hit your dog and didn't bother telling you, or something like that."

    "There's none more comfortable. It's more fun, for a drummer especially, to be aggressive, and so on and so forth. But you're always dying to get to that fourth song where it's slightly ballad-ish, and you can just go, "Goddamn, I'm so tired." You just relax. But the songwriting genres, it's whatever moves you. Hard music or heavy music isn't necessarily loud music. There's one song on the album called "Gone"; it's one of the most powerful songs on the album, and it's just
strings and the acoustic guitar, the voice, and that's it. "
