We aren't going to apologize to anyone for [our new album]. You are not obliged to like it. It's ok! We can still be friends. You just have bad taste. It doesn't make you a bad person. Most of our friends have questionable taste. Mine certainly is: I have in iPod full of Michael McDonald and Jeffrey Osborne and God-only-knows who else. I AM sorry that some of you think we suck now. Everyone said the same thing when ["Map Of What Is Effortless"] came out and they ended up changing their minds when they put it on and finally got laid, and realized how much they needed it. I hate that record now, and I like "Immolate Yourself" much more. I will like it until everyone else realizes how much of a fucking masterpiece it is and then I will think it's a turd and Charlie and I will make yet another record that will get imitated until we both feel like chundering all over our fucking tape machine.

I'm sorry, but you totally dumped your sound and in the processes lost all that made you stand out. I wouldn't know your new album from any other electro if I heard it off in the background...

To each his own, and for some better to be one of the many.

From BPitch Control website: Joshua says about the production process of the album:

I like my musicians with a little bit of snark.
