I Didn't Really Get London Until I

I Wrote The Album [metals] In The Fall. In About Four Months, I Went From Zero To Finished. It Usually Takes Forever.

I Love Storms And How The Whole House Shakes. When I Was A Kid, There Would Be Lots Of Thunder And Lightning Storms, And They Would Knock The Electricity Out. We Had This Oil Lantern That Had Been In My Grandfather's Homestead At The Turn Of The Century, Before There Even Was Electricity. He'd Bring It Down Off The Top Shelf, And We'd Always Play Cards.

For Me, The Best Part Is People Who Watch The Movie And Tell Me It Inspired Them To Collaborate With Their Friend Who's A Photographer Or Filmmaker.

A Year's A Long Time, But It Also Flickers Past In No Time At All.

I Just Went To Europe, Spent A Year Traveling, And Then I Came Home With A Finished Album And Said, "hey Everyone I'm Back!" I Gave Everyone Their Lighters From Luxembourg, Gave Them The Postcards From Italy And Rome, Then Said, "hey Look, I Made A Record, Too" And Played It For Them. The General Reaction Was Shock, Because It Was So Different From What They've Known Me To Do.
