They go to your shows, and they’re around the studio when you’re making your records. I’ve been doing this for a minute, and the last thing I want to do is (phone) it in. I want to be passionate about single hi-hat, kick drum, bassline, guitar riff, melody and lyric on the record…it tells me that the guys around me can see that I do that. That’s quite an honor.”
