In an interview with APN, Lloyd said; "When I was asked to do this record last year I didn't have a whole record myself to put out so it was a good opportunity for me to go back and play around with some old stuff" adding "I really just tried to keep it simple and beautiful, minimalizing the amount of instrumentation and really trying to make a nice record in a short amount of time. I gave myself three weeks as I have a tendency to over-produce things."[1]

gollark: That's from 7 years ago, so presumably it's worse now.
gollark: Oh, and also stuff like this (https://archive.is/P6mcL) - there seem to be companies looking at using your information for credit scores and stuff.
gollark: But that is... absolutely not the case.
gollark: I mean, yes, if you already trust everyone to act sensibly and without doing bad stuff, then privacy doesn't matter for those reasons.
gollark: Oh, and as an extension to the third thing, if you already have some sort of vast surveillance apparatus, even if you trust the government of *now*, a worse government could come along and use it later for... totalitarian things.
