There was a lot of stuff happening in the '80s and it's all over the place. I guess that's probably the coolest thing for me and that's what I like about it. Just kind of that like, 'Oh, what's this sound? Oh that's wacky. Let's use it anyways.'

Great God, what do I see and hear!
The end of things created!

The trumpet sounds; the graves restore,
The dead which they contained before;
Prepare, my soul, to meet Him!
Martin Luther
