There was something about our last tour that made me at peace with speaking openly and not minding if people disagree... There’s really nothing to think about career-wise.’ You can just speak freely and let all the colors of life come through.

Detective: There's not enough time

It's like in music. Sometimes you don't pick the instrument; the instrument picks you.

Overriding everything I just know that we need each other. I know that a song isn't finished until everyone has either written on top of it or decided not to. Unless you're on a sports team or something like that it's hard to understand. But there's just a geodesic dome, a structure, where every piece is keeping every other piece up and that's how we work.

I think we'd always been so worried about double albums and I think that this is maybe the time where we have to not be worried about anything that's why we were like, 'Okay! It's a double album then.'

It's our reaction to the perceived negativity thats everywhere. And there is a lot of trouble, but there’s also so much positivity and great life happening. So in a way, it’s trying to make sense of things, saying what we feel and what we see.
