Erik Heimann Quotations

He worked our tails off. There were a hundred vocals I thought were perfect that he made me sing a dozen more times before he was happy. I got to the point that I just laughed and said, 'OK, Brian, you're the boss.' Now that I've heard the record, I'm glad he worked my rear to death. I really don't hear anything that I'd want to change.

(Brian) has a huge stake in this record, as he injected so much of his own energy and passion, and the songs are better because of it. His production of this record brought it to a new level.

It'll be a true test of how much we really love each other, squeezed into a van and driving for 6-8 hours a day, 12 days straight. From there, we plan on taking over the world.

I don't pretend to be any smarter than Average Joe. To be honest, I'm not even sure what I'm saying half the time. My vocabulary is not as big as my lyrics would suggest. That said, I've always had a passion for creative writing, language and wordplay. I think a singer has a dual opportunity to be artistic: I have my voice as my instrument, but I also have an entire language at my disposal. Why not explore the outer realms? I'd be doing this band an injustice if I did anything less. I wanted this album to be more poetic, with less ranting and raving, and I think I did that, but without sacrificing my intellect or personal philosophies.
