Beyond Compare

Aubert says they'll want to change things up again the next time out, but he's not sure exactly how they'll do it yet. "It's almost out of your control," he says. "But right now, I just have this feeling that on the next record, we're gonna have the weirdest song and also the poppiest song. The way we're writing now, the mids are disappearing and the highs and lows are shining. I think we want to loosen it up a little, as far as compression and shit like that, have a little more negative space and possibly start throwing in some more organic stuff again. But who knows? Maybe we'll just make a ninth-generation ska record."
