I just really want to make albums - and however I can, I will.
I feel quite excited about the possibility of working on multiple albums. There's something really iconic about having a catalog featuring a lot of albums, and I'd love to have that legacy.
We went to South America on a trip and all I had was a Robert Johnson album. So that's a definite influence on the album. My bandmates John [Stanier, drummer] and Henry [Bogdan, bassist] were interested in expanding their roles as writers, so that had a positive impact on the record.
I'm working on my new album right now. Hopefully to get that out at the top of 2005, January 2005.
My album will manifest many things I saw,did or heard about; I talk first hand never word of mouth.
The album for Fiddler really took off. I think it was a combination of John Williams and the score. It was a very classy big album.
There was an enormous amount of pressure when my first album took off, and I struggled with the speed of everything and the exhaustion from the constant touring.
On the first album I was saying, that's just one part of me. And then I was thinking, well, am I going to hide the rest of me now just because I'm afraid of something? No. I'm just going to be myself.
I would love to make a real jazz album someday because I never have. But that's something I'm not in a rush to do.
The second album of Black Mages is currently in the process of recording and the basic tracks have already been completed. Hopefully sometime in the future we will be able to have a concert.

Obviously with every new album we make, we always have to believe in it and feel we've gone in the right direction.
I'm always happy when I see something written on an album that wasn't just typed on a computer.
It was always a great challenge: how can I make a dreampop album that's still very Alcest, but not a ripoff - how to keep the core.
I always tried to make a diverse album in terms of emotions and sounds.
When it came time to sequence the album, the new arrangements really demanded a different order. They were so different than they were before that the old sequence didn't work anymore.
The success of Torn was a bit too much for me. I took a year off and was still scared to start the second album.
You don't want to disappoint. Especially someone like me who's been out of music for years and hasn't had an album in like, four years.
Family photo albums are so powerful in that they make kids feel valued, cherished and respected.
I wouldn't mind doing Broadway, but I am definitely trying to get a album out there first.
What I love about making albums in the 21st century is that so few people buy albums! I can make an album without any commercial concerns whatsoever.
I have nothing against bombastic music, but when it comes to making albums, I'd prefer to make music that has a sort of vulnerable subtlety to it.
I think it'd be great if Prince made an album of just romantic, slow ballads.
To be honest, we're really nervous right now. It's our third album, so it's gotta be our best and biggest.
