. We made friends with AFI on the Warped Tour in 2001 and we've always kept in touch. I called Davey and he was worried about getting to a studio. ] song "One Mil," I really wanted something spontaneous that wasn't your typical studio setup. I went into the garage of our studio, set my phone down, did the part, and when I dumped it into the session, it sounded really good. The microphone on your phone is probably $300 or more -- the research and cost is insane.
Everything is better -- 100 percent better -- no question about it. When you're able to really focus and be as present as you can, hold onto a sense of self-awareness when you're playing music... that's really where it's at, man. Especially for us. As we get older, it's easier and easier to find gratefulness in whatever good is coming out of it, and the fact that we still have the opportunity to do what we want and people seem to be into it is an immense compliment.
It's hard to compare it to anything because it's all I really know. I think we do a good job of protecting where the music comes from. It's important that we're working on the cure that we feel we're born from. To get that reward, you've got to to challenge yourself. I believe it's the only way you can sustain.
It sounds like a nightmare scenario for a band, but it wasn't. We were self-sufficient. Everything we were doing had very little to do with the mechanism that Capitol had in place. Back in those days, major labels knew exactly what to do with a band that could move 30,000 records a week. They had that down. They had no idea what to do with a band that had maybe only sold 2,000 copies total with five combined releases, which was us. We were sleeping on floors.
