Interviewer: What do you prefer to throw when you're angry?
Andrew: Nunchucks.
Ben: A very large sword.
Andrew: Michelangelo's nunchuck. Michelangelo is my favorite ninja turtle.
Ben: Leonardo is the best.
Andrew: I used to love Donatello because he is the smartest.
Ben: But I would never throw a big sword at you, even if you don't shower and annoy me.
Andrew: I do shower! Every day.
Ben: This is not true.
Andrew: You swallow quite loudly when you drink, it's very annoying.

“I dont think ‘Kids’ is a joke song, but I think it does have that air of sarcasm about it. We figure if we’re going to try to make a career as musicians, we want to do it in a way like the Beatles or Rolling Stones, who make music for music. To not be overly serious or pretentious about it, but write about stuff that means something. We still don’t take ourselves too seriously, and in the live shows there are a lot of goofy moments. And we realize that that can be a form of psychedelia, when the audience doesn’t know if the band is serious or not. We play with that a little bit.”

““I’m surprised Nickelodeon or whoever it is went through with it because most people are going to be like, “These guys are tripping on mushrooms!” Maybe when you’re a kid you don’t really pick up on that. But that’s probably one of the best things we’ve ever done. I was so happy with the way it turned out.””

“We think our music is really sincere, even though some of it is tongue-in-cheek. We did this EP called We Care/We Don’t Care, which sort of sums us up. What we’ve always been about is contradictions.”

Andrew: We lost our dog a couple nights ago, we're putting up lots of reward signs. She likes spaghetti, she has a microchip, and she's 2.5 years old.
Ben: She can't breathe.

Wed, 05 Oct 2011 21:40:07 -0400

“You know, we don’t care if the critics hate the album… the people whose voices are on the internet, on blogs and music review websites, aren’t necessarily the opinions I give a shit about. But when these vicious journalists come to us with these questions dripping with venom like ‘why do you think everyone hates your album?’, accusing us of wanting to alienate listeners on purpose and asking us how it feels to be failures or whatever; that’s just fucking hurtful.”

Mon, 03 Oct 2011 18:57:05 -0400

“I would like, stare at my salad, Like, the salad just didn’t make any sense at all, if that makes any sense. Like, ‘what the hell is happening, why is there like, little pieces of plants on a plate? Like, what is going on?’ and it’s like this little moments when like nothing makes any sense at all.”
