maybe they meant that they wanted to imperfections that satisfied them
perfectly?

These guys completely contradicted themselves in the two interviews that
were recently talked about.
In the XLR8R interview, Mike says about the forthcoming album, "We want to
do this one at our own pace and only deliver it when we think we¹ve got
something that is absolutely perfect, with no flaws."
Then in the NME interview he says, "It's okay to be imperfect - in
fact the imperfections are where the magic is. To us, perfect music sounds
sterile and dead. The tunes we write are imperfect, the sounds are
imperfect, even the artwork. I can't listen to perfect music, it bores me.
We actually put a lot of effort into making things rough and difficult and
noisy, even more so on this than on the last album."
When I read things like this it makes me think that their philosophies have
no credibility. I wish I hadn't read that.
