Interviewer: Which song do you feel most attached to on the record?
Bo Koster: There's a few of them I really like. I guess "Smokin' from Shootin'" is the one that I really like. I really liked "Wordless Chorus" on the last record and I like "Smokin' from Shootin'" on this record. I can't say why exactly. It was kind of something that came up at the last minute and it had an interesting feel to me with that kick drum going with the lyrics and the awkward kind of part at the beginning of the song. The verses are kind of not stale, but very sterile kind of methodical. And then the end, when it kicks in, it's just this huge kind of orchestral thing.
