<strong>Why all the thematic complexity?</strong><br />
It allows us to go to a bunch of different places artistically; there&#8217;s just more to experience. Putting out a record without any of that stuff would be short-sighted, like you didn&#8217;t put everything you had into it. With each album you get to try it again and get it more cohesive and more thought-out and more psychedelic.<br />
