(5/15/12): “We love the song ‘Equal Mind,’ but it did not fit on Bloom, so its B-Side, and that’s what happens to the songs that for one reason or another don’t make sense in the album.” I guess each one has its own specific identity, that either melds with others or not. “They are their own songs; they don’t need to be on the album because they can just exist on their own. And ‘Equal Mind’ is an example of that.” ~ Victoria, Filler
(5/16/17): “‘Equal Mind’ was also recorded during the Bloom session, but we left it off the record after realizing it had the exact same tempo as ‘Other People.’” ~ Sub Pop
