HUMO: The producer of Our Love to Admire was Rich Costey, who’s particularly renowned for his work for Muse, the stadium band of the moment. Was that the deciding factor to work with him?
PB: “I’m probably the only one of the band who wanted Costey for his work for Muse; the others were more interested in his work for The Mars Volta and so on. But I heard the Muse records and I knew: this sound is interesting for us. I also like them musically. That dude is a virtuoso musician.
