Though, since the first record, I've dramatically changed my expectations for our records.

With our first two records we backed ourselves into a hole musically.

We were really motivated to do something with this record overseas, even though I hate touring.

When we first began and I was 14, my influences were the stuff that was in my parent's record collection like Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin.

I'm lucky the arthritis happened at the time that it did because of the record.

I never really paid attention to sales until the second record.
