Entrevista en una radio:
On ".5: The Gray Chapter":Taylor: "As excited as the fans are, I am just as excited, if not more excited, to get this album out, so people can hear it. It is a fantastic piece of work. I'm really proud of it. I love the music. I haven't stopped listening to it since we started recording it — this is going all the way back to the demos, man. And I just love what we've been able to do. It's dark, it's moody, it's artistic, it's heavy as hell. There's some brutal screams on it, but there's also huge melodies on it. I can't tell you how stoked I am that we were able to pull this off, man. Especially, just from a personal point of view, telling the story that we need to tell, which is essentially the last four years, and everything that we've gone through since losing Paul [Gray, bass]. This album was too important to rush in and do, and I'm glad we took our time and really made sure that it was time to make it when we did. And the proof's in the pudding, man. I can't wait for people to hear it."
On whether the new album is a full-on lyrical tribute to Paul Gray or a record that was just made in legacy and in honor of Gray:
Taylor: "Oh, it's both. It's definitely both. There's a handful of songs on the album that are about Paul. There's a bunch of songs just about the band and everything that we've been through in the last four years, all the emotions that we've had to deal with, the reaction from the world. I mean, it really kind of covers the bases, as far as what this band has been through. A lot of people have no idea what it's been like. You don't understand it. So for us, for me, especially, as a lyricist, being able to tell the story and tell it as honestly and as darkly as I've been able to, I'm stoked for people to hear it."
