I like the way they talk about the...Cool interview. I like the way they talk about their music- you can hardly find any kind of complicated 'philosophy' in their words (many artists try to sound like geniuses and the result is opposite!). Here one can actually see that they ARE great musicians 'cause they don't pretend to be someone they're not. I truly apprecieate this kind of attitude, as a fan.<br /><br />Oh and I can absolutely understand that they call USA their home. I feel the same way about your country, Dave. So I share the same feeling they've got, a kind of "USA is a home for my soul" way of thinking.<br /><br />It's cool to read about their current creative processes, even though the only tracks I like on "In And Out Of Control" are "Heart Of Stone" and "Breaking Into Cars". I'm not sure if I can allow myself to express such a criticism 'cause I love this band as much as only few other bands, but I really don't get that new pop-influenced direction they started to get from "Pretty In Black" on. Of course there were pop elements in their music before but they were somehow different, more sexy and mysterious, like a 'night' music. It was also more natural, if you know what I mean, the sound was like half-improvised life performance instead of considerate, somehow cool-headed new recordings. I hope they get a drummer and bass player to record another album with them and that they'll make a kind of back-to-the-whip-it-on-roots, disturbing and fascinating record. Hearing those two tracks I've mentioned I can only imagine how great new songs they could record. But it's just me. If they feel the other way then they've got all the right in the world to follow their hearts.<br /><br />I hope they'll be around 'cause it's always cool to hear their new music in which I always find something for myself.xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09880156056525167881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7292741862763113147.post-18307017087709340632009-08-06T12:43:51.618-07:002009-08-06T12:43:51.618-07:00Good work, thanks Dave.Good work, thanks Dave.Brad Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09839532299808900672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7292741862763113147.post-64357969628396824132009-08-03T10:39:39.187-07:002009-08-03T10:39:39.187-07:00great interview. to be completely honest i was a b...great interview. to be completely honest i was a bit sleepy reading that part about books.... :P <br />but as always i like your interview, but i have to noticed that this one sound quiet serious. :)<br />and i have to point out that i love the pictures that KAS did. and other pcs from festival was cool especially with those comments after them that makes me feel like i was there for a short while. :) <br />feel the free. :)Mr Smorkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17114656304341401631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7292741862763113147.post-11896081224914062682009-08-03T08:48:47.642-07:002009-08-03T08:48:47.642-07:00I have to admit, I probably know more about the Ra...I have to admit, I probably know more about the Raveonettes now than I ever did before.
