This might clear things up over the whole Outback thing: "When Outback approached me, I was in this really weird state of mind where I was so indifferent I didn't really care," Barnes says. "I was pretty heavily medicated with antidepressants that were pushing me in this weird direction. I was very indifferent, very detached. It was helping me with all this anxiety and paranoia and this crazy depression stuff, but it made me make a bad decision." Right when I heard it, I was thinking, "They were probably too drugged up to even realize what Outback was asking." I guess I was right. |

Just thought that this would help out. In an interview with Pitchfork contributor Stephen Deusner for the Memphis Flyer, Barnes described his mindset during the making of Hissing Fauna: "I'd gone through a pretty heavy period when I was writing it and recording it. Kind of my first real experience with chemical depression and serious anxiety and paranoia and what might be qualified as mental illness." "Heimdelsgate", Barnes told Magnet magazine was about how "you can't really control the chemicals in your brain, and sometimes there's nothing you can do to keep it together." While no songs on the record directly address prescription medication, the singer does credit antidepressants with the making of the album: "The real issue was a chemical thing, so when I finally got on medication, that balanced it out. So that helped me have a better perspective on things and helped my relationship with my wife and helped me through [the album]." |

| He really does sound like Jake Shears. I actually thought it was him, so I googled it & I everything could neither confirm nor deny it. | |
