Village Voice does an interview with A Camp

Village Voice did an interview with A Camp.

It sounded when A Camp was first getting started it was a very scaled-back affair, especially compared to the Cardigans. But now, maybe not so much. The new record is very big at times.

Yeah, absolutely. The first record I had a need to do something minimalist. The music I was listening to at the time was certainly a lot more minimalist than the Cardigans. I felt the need for doing something that was worked more with the gaps in between those sounds. Also, I was working with Mark Linkous then, who is the master of noise. And that’s something I was wanting as well [laughs]. Beautiful noise. But all of us have it in our veins–the “pop” sentiment–we are builders, we like to add stuff, we’re maximalists at heart. We all have that drive in is. But in a way, I think this record might be truer to our instincts.
