Could you tell me a little bit more about that? Gavin: This time around we weren't really focused on making a strict concept record but a lot of the lyrical content seemed to parallel an essay that Mark found by Salman Rushdie called "A Letter to the Six Billionth Citizen". PRT: The new album is inspired by a Salman Rushdie poem and comes with something of a religious theme… I’m just curious about how the creative process works with you guys. That being said, with independence comes more work and less resources so we still have have a lot of stairs to climb. PRT: Do you like having matters back in your own hands? And how do you plan to use that newfound freedom? Gavin: Honestly, I believe that if there is a good time to be independent that time is now. When we were signed in 2001 the music business was a whole different world. PRT: “The Pariah, The Parrot, The Delusion” marked your departure from Interscope… what exactly is the story behind that parting? Gavin: There really isn't much of story other than the fact that we got dropped because we didn't sell enough records and didn't really fit their business model anymore.

PRT: Congratulations, you’ve released one of the best albums I’ve already heard this year! But how come it took you guys over two years from when you announced the new album to the actual release? Gavin: There were some personal reasons, the label change ate up some time, and there were a lot of trial and error delays as well. If you haven't already checked it out, you definitely should because you are missing out! Here's an email interview we did with lead singer Gavin. It's an amazing album that constantly crosses over into different genres but always sounds like a Dredg album. Dredg released one of my favourite albums so far this year with "The Pariah, The Parrot, The Delusion".
