I’m interested in taking a different approach and having the next record be different in tone – I’m just not interested in making another dark, dark album. Download This Image

I think they’ve just stayed true to why they play music in the first place, it’s just because they love doing it and they love each other and that’s the impetus for doing it, not trying to keep singles on the radio and on MTV.
