An obvious question about your new album. Why did you name it 'More songs
about Food & Revolutionary Art'?
"To tell you the truth, the original title of this album was gonna be
Critics Can Kiss My Ass. But maybe one of my future releases will have that
title. I definitely wanted 'revolutionary art' in the title somewhere.
Because Hannah's (Carl's partner, rp) father as a well known art- and
moviecritic, opened my mind to a lot of things. So I was pretty sure I
wanted to use the word  'revolutionary art' somewhere. I didn't want to use
something like 'excursions in revolutionary art' because than it would seem
like it reflected the music on the album. But by putting 'Songs about....'
in front of it and including food in it I made it more tripped-out...."
