He was also on an episode [0] of the Song Exploder podcast where he talked about how he uses a spreadsheet to catalog all his song ideas, with columns for key, tempo, mood, etc. So when he has an idea for a song, he can search for riffs and phrases that might work together.

Might be their best melodies, but the overall vibe is not as good as Pinkerton (especially without Matt Sharp).
