I do realize Ben himself said that what he had in mind while making this record was consumerism and how it’s affecting the human race, but personally I never would’ve come to that conclusion on my own, so I chose to keep this review true to my own experience. He also said the following which made me a lil more confident in sharing it:
"Obviously I do want to move and create some kind of response within my music, hence some of it being very violent and some of it being very, very heartfelt and soft and emotionally driven, but what really interests me is the differences between how [my music] might impact me and how it might impact someone listening. It’s always interesting to see other people’s perceptions of that same piece of music that I’ve written.
"I’m always very keen that people form their own relationships with these pieces of music – I don’t always have lyrics that are intelligible, or those of which that are intelligible to me are kind of disguised by whatever signal processor I might be using at the time. I don’t really want to push my own agenda onto people, I want them to form their own relationship [with the music]. It’s obviously a whole new artistic process in itself, the moment that you share it with people. That’s not just me, that goes for every artist or creative."
