A good voice isn't so important. It's more important to sound really unique.
Stephen Malkmus Almost every band has somebody who's the main songwriter and who has a vision, a very clear idea of how a song should be. Stephen Malkmus But, then again, I wouldn't call myself an indie-rock supporter even if there are some really good bands out there and there will always be some real good new bands. Stephen Malkmus I don't even think my voice is really good. Stephen Malkmus I guess the majority of people who want to ban certain musicians are the ones who are so proud of everything America stands for. Stephen Malkmus I like that band Get Hustle. They're cool live. I haven't heard their records, though. Stephen Malkmus I never decided to start singing, to be a singer. Stephen Malkmus I really do think everybody can sing. Stephen Malkmus I think the focus of the media changes. At the moment the more electronic stuff like trip-hop was the flavor of the month, just a little while ago. It all depends on the angle, from which point of view you see it. Stephen Malkmus I'm more into describing a scenario and I move around in that scenario. Stephen Malkmus I'm not sure if you can blame everything on the American way of life, but the United States are big. So, if you have a lot of people there, the percentage of stupid people is bound to be higher. Stephen Malkmus If a voice is just too nice, without an edge, it kinda all flows by. You forget it. You don't listen to the lyrics. Stephen Malkmus If you want to be negative about the whole thing you can say all guitar bands after the Beatles were just a waste of time because the Beatles were the best. I think it's far better to give new records a try. Stephen Malkmus Lou Reed is something like a personal favorite of mine, but you could always put me into that drawer of singers who can't really sing, who speak their songs. Stephen Malkmus The lyrics are different from Nick Cave songs and lyrics. His songs are very narrative. Stephen Malkmus There's no point that an album should sound like a watered down version of another album. Stephen Malkmus We always did our own mixing. Stephen Malkmus We were delighted to have Nigel as a producer. The only problem is that Nigel is so famous that he seems to dominate most interviews without being there. Stephen Malkmus We're not on a desperate mission to write chart compatible stuff. Stephen Malkmus We're probably a couple of freaks who've created their own little universe, are living in our own little world and that's the only place where we can survive. Stephen Malkmus Well, yeah, I sang to some songs on the radio or in the shower. Stephen Malkmus What producers did was mostly recording in the studio, so it never changed our sound just that much.
