I'm one of those artists who, if you'd let me tweak, would probably keep going and going, so it comes to the point where sometimes you just have to let go and make the decision, 'Okay, that's it.'

Really, I get inspired by just switching projects and instrumentation and things like that - that creative part of just being different every time is really what inspires me.
