“I have no interest in making music solely for a white audience. If that’s what our audience is, I don’t really feel responsible for that. But doesn’t every band sort of appropriate their influences into what they do? I guess that would be my defence: if you’re making something, you kinda can’t help being a conduit for other things.”

That’s a terrible way to put it, but, you know… like a supernatural sort of feeling. Drugs don’t have to be a part of that to me, so if somebody says - your music takes me to that sort of place - then I’m really psyched. But if drugs get you to that place, that’s fine as long as you’re not really hurting yourself, to me.”
