It's really important to me that the songs not only stand out individually but work as a full body of work, too.

Songs are really interesting in that way. Sometimes, they grow with you. Sometimes, you outgrow them.

When you are pushing yourself to not go back to the same well, you're gonna come up with something different, or you'll find songs that are different.

Some of the songs I've made, I'm really disappointed in how I mixed them.

On occasion, I hear a rearrangement of a song that really makes me reevaluate it in a way.

My songs are self-explanatory... somebody pointed out to me that... my songs pretty much speak for themselves.

I hate that if you do one style of music or become really well known for that one song, that everything that comes after has to fit that mold.

All of our songs take these really big creative turns and twists throughout the process, so sometimes songs will start out as a melody or some musical chord progressions.

That's what I find with any good song, you just have to let it happen. Out of about twenty songs you might write, one of any significance. It might be thirty or forty, but I just keep churning them out and churning them out in hope that one of them will stick.
