He emphasized the band’s desire to innovate beyond the traditional album cycle saying, “And right now we are not sure exactly what is next. We’re talking about getting in the studio and recording,but we’re trying to come with some kind of a different idea than just write an album,record an album,go on the road,repeat cycle. We’re trying to come with something a little bit different.”

We’re gonna do it when it feels right and not before. And the same thing goes to when we release things. We made a rule a long time ago that we have a choice to release an album on time or an album when it’s ready, and we’ve always chosen to release the album when it’s ready. Rushing something half-hearted or half-baked is, is not gonna happen with this group.” This statement highlights the band’s commitment to delivering their best work, nonetheless of external pressures.
