With Engine Kid, we were admittedly just using that formula to start with. It was very derivative of Slint and Bastro, and there’s another band from Louisville called Crane that was a huge influence on us as well. They were all guys that grew up in the hardcore scene but then started doing something different with their music: exploring the dynamics of it.”
