Crank 2: High Voltage hits theaters today, and, as we’ve mentioned before, it’s got a score by the always godlike Mike Patton (and performances by Tool’s Maynard James Keenan and Linkin Park’s Chester Bennington, but that’s another story for another blog post). I still haven’t heard said score. But I think I’m gonna get baked and go to a late show tonight, preferably in Times Square, with the loudest, most interactive audience available to me.

ANYWAY, Ain’t It Cool News has a video interview with Patton where he discusses his process for writing music. It’s actually really interesting stuff, even if it is, ultimately, basically just a commercial. It’s not embeddable but you can – and should – check it out here.
