“I wrote “Palmcorder Yajna” and the way I wrote it was I had a chord progression, I liked the sound of it, didn’t have any words, so I just barked out an intersection of Pomona. It was the intersection that my dear friend Franz Writter always told us: If you ever get caught by the cops, and they ask you where did you score, tell them Holt Boulevard. They can’t touch you if you tell them the name of the street [where there are many drug dealers]. I barked out “Holt Boulevard!” and amused the shit out of myself just yelling the name of a random street that’s a part of my childhood. I felt like I was mythologizing this nothing area, and then I named the next two streets.”
