-enjoyed playing Astronaut at the Moon gig...it may make future set lists -looking forward to upcoming shows...the band doesn't like to go more than 3 mos w/out a live show -back to the studio after the live shows...battling to write lyrics presently. Will work with the producer to get him to pull lyrics out of himself (Simon). -DD albums can be mainstream or experimental - Rio was mainstream, First album was experimental. He says the new album is experimental...excited about it. Katy asked him to label Astronaut and Paper Gods...Astro was mainstream, Paper Gods experimental. But the new album has a totally different vibe than PG. -Katy still annoying...

Problems with the "lyric police?" That's too funny I thought the lyric police was Warren C, I remember circa late 90's where in an interview Warren had said (in relation to SLBs lyrics) that the 3rd word of the first verse cannot include the word nostril or it could have been nostrils? I kinda agree with WC on that one Regardless of whether the song was reworked or scrapped, It makes me wonder tho, Which song from either Medaz or the Pop T LP could have once included nostril/nostrils within the first 3 words of its first verse???

My guess is Out Of My Mind. It would go like this : Please my nostrils, Lay flowers by the door,....

Would agree with Andre, the words paper gods and experimental are not happily linked.

I think the majority of us would rather DD put out quality music and not chart well, as opposed to chart well but put out music below their standards. That being said, I feel like stating the new album will be experimental is a cop out. If he had said that this album is mainstream sounding, and it makes no dent in the charts whatsoever, then it could be implied that DD as a band just don't have it anymore. By saying an album will be experimental, then they could save face if the material does not become known to the general public or have any success art al in the charts. At this stage of the game, DD will never describe a new upcoming album as mainstream, even if it is.

Katy asked him to label Astronaut and Paper Gods...Astro was mainstream, Paper Gods experimental. But the new album has a totally different vibe than PG. The title track, Universe Alone, Kill Me with Silence...these are anything but mainstream. With that being said, the worst tracks on the album (Last Night, Danceophobia) were overtly mainstream, so please bring on the experimental. I will continue to defend PG as a Top 5 DD album, albeit with a new track list: PG, PO, FFT, VS, YKMWS, WATC, Skyline, Cinderella, Lights, Sunset, Dreams, Universe. Astronaut had to have been mainstream as they relaunching the Fab Five and the commercial expectations were very high. I hope Sony's A&R team for that album were fired though...Want You More was the obvious first single. It was chart chasing but it did retain their Fab 5 sound.
