- Defeat
- |

Anne Carson and Angela Carter are folks I hold close to my heart because they have such unique ways of telling stories.

- Love
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Seeing people communicate about the band online has been amazing, but I think a lot of people spend a lot of time talking about what they hate rather than what they love. I don't want to get trapped in that.
- Emotions
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I like the idea of a record being more than one thing emotionally - human beings go through so many emotions in one day - and I like those things sitting next to each other.
- Nobody
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Nobody is strong 100 percent of the time or falling apart 100 percent of the time; sometimes you're doing both at once.
- Character
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've never been able to write narrative as a character, really. Jenny Lewis, I love her stuff, I love that she can weave these American Gothic fairytales. I feel like I sound inauthentic when I do that, so I tend to write from a personal standpoint.
- Myself
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When I'm writing, it's because I'm trying to figure something out for myself. If I don't believe in what I've written, then how can I expect anyone else to believe in that, either?
- Hard
- |
- Nov 07, 2020

- Reading

- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I never wanted to write really cheesy pop lyrics - like, 'baby, baby, the sun is shining' - that's not something that interests me personally. I'm always wanting to write something that has some kind of meaning.
- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I speak a little bit of French and German, but apparently, I'm really bad at Dutch. The pronunciations are quite hard. I tried to say 'hello' in Dutch, and it did not work. People were just like, 'What?'
- Music
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I had somebody say to me once, 'You can't make the kind of music you're making and call yourself a feminist.' The door was slammed on them swiftly after that.
- More

- Nov 07, 2020
Crushes start out as that teenage phenomenon, life-affirming and cute, but as you wander into adulthood, they seem to end up more painful, harrowing, and uncertain, especially if you have just come out of the relationship you thought would finally, maybe, maybe be the one that stuck.
- End
- |
- Nov 07, 2020

- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
To me, it is not necessarily you responding that trolls want: they want to scare, they want to intimidate, and they want to silence people - so ignoring it doesn't make a difference.
- Depeche
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I think looking at the front row of a Chvrches show is really diverse. It could be 50-year-old dudes who love Depeche Mode or teenagers or teenage girls and their dad.
- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Obviously, when you're working at things, you all hope that people will relate to it.

- Different Kinds
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I think that everybody likes different kinds of music, and that's absolutely fine.
- Island
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I went to an island in the Bahamas full of iguanas. You don't live on the island, obviously, because it's solely populated by iguanas, and it's not allowed.
- Day
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I don't want to be the front for somebody else's creativity and sell that day in, day out.
- I Am
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My band persona is 25% tougher than I am.
- Hair
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
We've done a couple of women's mags, but we tend to talk about feminism and women in the industry, which I feel more comfortable talking about. It's a more valuable discussion than, 'Oh, you're a girl in a band. What hair conditioner do you use?' I use hair conditioner, and I like talking about it. But I don't want that to be the question.
- Know
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Pretty much everybody we know in Glasgow who's in a band has another job. All of us have worked in bars, cafes, or cinemas. It means you can afford to do the thing you love.
- Brain
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I guess I'm fortunate in that two things I always wanted to do, since I was 16, were play music and get into news media. I'm very lucky to have two things that can engage my brain at once.
- Die
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm not in the business of telling people 'DIY or die,' but I do think it's important to be as hands-on with what you're doing as possible.
- Long

One guy came to a show and was like, 'You're going to be huge. I can see it in my mind's eye. We could make you the next Pixie Lott.' I did an internal scream and ran away.
- Journey
- |
- Nov 07, 2020

- Nov 07, 2020
I've been into short stories ever since I read an Angela Carter collection when I was a teenager.

People say Taylor Swift's not feminist enough or Beyonce's not feminist enough, but there are 12-year-old girls going to their shows and taking an awesome message.
- Problems
- |

Margaret Thatcher was a lady. I suppose she was a woman in a man's world, but that's about the only nice thing I have to say.
