Interviewer:
Was there some sense that there was going to be an introduction of other music that you'd been listening to? You alluded to the fact that you had been listening to some other music and wanted to bring that to the sessions.
Jonny:
Right. Partly it's--it's a realization that there are only a handful of good rock records, in a way, and same way with any handful of albums--

And sounding like a rock band would just mean that we were only listening to music like that when the Pixies were around.
