One of the smartest things we ever did was not plan a single thing,” said Hince. “It’s almost like if you think too much about it, you will probably screw it up. We just hopped on. We’ve never really seen this as a career or a job. I know a lot of bands talk this kind of talk, but honestly, we only do this because we love it. We are not the kind of people who check record sales or venue sizes or marketing ploys. We grew up with Sonic Youth [and loved the attitude in which] you turn your band into your life and your life into your band. We are as close as we can get to that.

Jamie Hince

One of the many reasons why I love this band.
