There's something mathematically satisfying about music: notes fit together and harmony and all that. And mathematics has to do with abstractions and making connections.

Math and music are intimately related. Not necessarily on a conscious level, but sure.

A lot of music is mathematics. It's balance.

May not music be described as the mathematics of the sense, mathematics as music of the reason? The musician feels mathematics, the mathematician thinks music: music the dream, mathematics the working life.

Mathematics is the music of reason.

But however measurable, there is much more life in music than mathematics or logic ever dreamed of.

Some people focus more on sonics. Some people focus more on story. I focus on both sonics and story, but music sometimes, just music itself, can turn into more of a maths problem. I guess everything in life is a math problem, but it can be more about an empirical route to getting the symmetry that you want, and this vibe, sonically.

I don't think our music has much to do with math rock.
