We [note: he’s talking about himself and James Jean] had a second meeting about the album artwork at his house. At this meeting I finally had some music to play him and he seemed very intrigued by it. I played him ‘Mama,’ and I remember him thinking it was crazy. I told him to just go off on the artwork, showing him a sketch I had done based on ‘March Of The Saints’…he was ready to start working. As I snapped photos of his studios and his cat, Taffy, we heard a commotion from the kitchen. His wife (who is lovely) was very distraught because a bird had flown into the kitchen window and died on impact. It was a very strange moment outside, looking at the bird, and I snapped some photos of it. It felt like either bad mojo or a good omen…I’m still trying to figure out which.
