Even the vinyl version of the album, which was the first thing that we mastered, it had to be a 10-song version of the album, which was kind of frustrating 'cause we've been preparing like a 12 and 15 song. I really like that it's almost got the whole journey in a way. When we're too annexed in it and each of us is just trying to come up with the next best part, you're not really thinking, "Well, what about if we do something like this." You're just trying to do the best thing that you can do, but after it's all done and dusted, it's sort of easier to see, "Oh God! So that was where I was coming from there." And actually, with this particular album, I really rather like it. And once I really got to listen to the album as a whole, once we've re-mastered it and delivered it, that's for me when I started to see all the influences and all the unconscious inspirations and those kind of mash-ups almost, where Atari Boy meets Siouxsie and the Banshees and whatever it is, or the David Bowie tribute, that the last song turns out unwittingly to be. Taylor: Exactly, especially standing back. And any time you get a collection of musicians who have these wildly eclectic influences, when you go through Future Past, are there moments where you hear these crazy mixes of wild sweeping orchestral Stanley Kubrick-inspired scores and jazz soul collections and Ultravox? īaltin: I just interviewed Nick Rhodes about the project he's been doing with Wendy Bevan. And then for you '80s fans, digitally re-mastered fortieth anniversary version of Ultravox's Vienna, which includes an instrumental version of the album on a separate disk. I'm also seriously in love with Agnes Obel. This is Lovers Rock, they're a London-based company and that all of their compilations are amazing. I'm quite eclectic, and sometimes I buy things, I don't know this artist but I just had to have it. Steve Baltin: Did you find anything good in the record stores in Austin? I spoke with Taylor about the band's evolution, dealing with that early fame, the group's diverse musical influences and much more.
