Who knows, when the time comes, maybe we'll get both so we won't have to choose.

Right there with you. I still get pangs of guilt at times. It’s a long road out.
Marcus: It's about what fits in the context of the album. When we play live we often play tracks that haven't been released. Sometimes those tracks will be used later, sometimes we will move on from that sound and leave the track behind.
Mike: Haha, yeah there will be another record very soon after this one. As Marcus said, you make an album by compiling what fits together, and we're already putting together a different record.

It's pretty standard for them to include back-masked and reversed samples in their music, but every single bit of percussion and drum beat on every song is built from forward and reversed samples.
Not only that, they manage to build whole songs (not including voices) out of a couple samples. The main sample of Julie and Candy is likely reused (counted in my head while listening) 8 times. But there are slight variations used in the right and left of the stereo field. In a greater span, they reuse samples constantly throughout the record. I also think they used and continue to use the same instrument for bass on nearly their whole LP catalogue.
Considering their use of stereo space, you can tell how they add reverb to lower frequencies to replicate actual reverb outside, in the real world (there's an interview somewhere where they talk about this). Every texture, including the voice on Opening of the Mouth, seems to have backwards & forwards delay, regardless of if the direction of the sound or sample in question. The palindromic structure of TH probably was fully realized while they made this album. I Saw Drones solidifies this practice.

At the end of Gyroscope is a sample of a guitar that in its original state has a pretty steady rhythm, but when the song is played normally it almost sounds syncopated. OTHR kind of does the opposite, and I'm still not sure how TSWN is actually supposed to sound, it's almost like they tried the whole play-reverse-copy the reverse-reverse the copy process.
