What we’re gonna do is We’re Gonna Start and We’re Gonna Write, and As We’re Writing, We’re Recording at The Same Time. ‘ So that’s what we did.

That’ll Work. Let’s go. ‘ Set up the drums, set up the guitar, here’s the vocals.

And if it was’t a ‘Hell yaah’, it was a ‘Hell no’. So there’s nothing on there on this album that we don’t feel complete Ownership over. There’s nothing on this album that anybody forced US to do.
