white stripes band
I'm not excited when bands strip things down. I'm not excited by the White Stripes.
art thinking listening
I never saw the point in listening to only one thing. The low art/high art distinction comes from the establishment telling me how I'm supposed to think.
real thinking culture
I think there's real currency in pop culture.
art lows distinction
I never understood the low art/high art distinction.
girl love-you mean
Even that word depends on what you mean by pop. I mean, pop music has currency. It could just be about that girl who's in love with you.
guitar trying machines
There's so much to be said for making your guitar sound like a synthesizer and try to make your drummer sound like a drum machine.
play people different
The live experience and the recorded experience are totally different. When you're recording an album, you won't be able to immerse people in sound. When you play live, you want to grab people on the visceral level. They're completely different.
thinking style machines
There's so much that you can do if you mimic your style to a drum machine. I think that's far more exciting.
believe use machines
I don't really believe in the use of drum machines live.
thinking next fans
I'm really excited about the remixes. I've always been a fan of electronic music and I'm thinking about that very seriously for the next record as well.
real rocks enemy
There's too much rock that relies a fetishism or nostalgia for the old ways. That's a real enemy to music.
hearing-things helping young
You can't help hearing things that are popular when you're young and impressionable.
wall giving world
An unregulated derivatives market essentially gives Wall Street a way to place hidden taxes on everything in the world.
people house labyrinth
The House Rules Committee is perhaps the free world's outstanding bureaucratic abomination - a tiny, airless closet deep in the labyrinth of the Capitol where some of the very meanest people on earth spend their days cleaning democracy like a fish.
