Has this even been confirmed?

My previous projects were ones I did in complete isolation, essentially. I recorded them and wrote them on my own. This EP is sort of a shift in two senses. Number one is that I worked with a couple producers who collaborated on it and helped me co-produce the album. I think I was a little reluctant at first to opening up the project, but I think that both people I worked with were very much in line with what I was trying to do and the aesthetic of it and the DIY vibe of it. Keeping it sounding like me but just to the next step, and pushing me to be better by writing stronger lyrics and stronger hooks.

The second thing is that I feel like I am really starting to find my voice and what I want to say. When I started doing music I was kind of trying to be clever and just having fun with it and to be honest just fucking around. As time went on it became a more important part of my life and what I wanted to say and be about. I think this EP is more of a statement about who I am.

On the new EP I was working with Dave McCracken who did a bunch of stuff with Depeche Mode and this chick, Oh Land, who’s an electronic artist; the other person is Liam Howlett from The Prodigy. They are my friends, but they are not my childhood close friends. I think there is something powerful about being a little bit of a stranger to somebody, but still connecting. I think it pushes, or at least pushed me, to challenge myself instead of just falling back into something fun and easy.

Right, but is it confirmed by Howlett?

No, but does he usually bother ?

The production on "We Hate Everyone" makes me even more excited for the new album! It's dark, it's aggressive, it's phat! Now I am stoked. Hope Liam can keep this up and bring us another great album. This has the darkness IMD was lacking.
