They’re supporting us in Brighton at our free show coming up, it’s pretty cool.Well….

Have a good show.”We all say ‘solid.’ We’re always like, “Let’s have a solid show.” We all mean that so like we think to be [He bangs his fists together] like dead on.

Lovely guys. Beige (Live at King Tuts) 25. Cool. But yeah, the whole place went nuts. Bands would put a single on it and give it away, and we thought of doing that with a magazine but… It didn’t work out.That was another one! It’s a lot of pianos and horns. The weird thing was the security [men] were really cool with us. 'In The Cold We Smile' turned 10 years old on March 30, earlier this year. It’s quite… lustful. We have lights… Lights and a TV.I personally still consider Aberdeen my home because my parents are still there and I’m really close with them.


Tom, our drummer, finished.Yeah and that’s why we never get mentioned in the school newsletters because we were dropouts.Yeah, lovely band. It’s a little vinyl. Aberdeen 1987 (Live at King Tuts) Item code: RAY066LP Label: Raygun Records Info correct "Drinking in L.A." is a song from 1996 by Canadian electronica collective Bran Van 3000, released as the band's first single. I’m all over covers right now… Yeah, well this is a bit of an… exclusive but me and my friend have done a record and it’s going to come out next year. We had a fridge but it had to be taken out because we weren’t using it. It’s still being manufactured so the fact that when you get a 7” vinyl you know exactly what it is.
Get off! If I had my own way, every show would be free but it was just the venue’s idea and they’re quite a new venue, and they were like we’re going to put on a show for you and we’re going to make it free, and we’ll still pay you and we were like, “Sure…” We haven’t played in Brighton in a long time. I can’t deal with bands with egos.

I’m better at this than school.” And our original drummer lived in London and we’re like, “We could go to this college in Brighton and see what happens.” Then we actually met our manager on the first day we moved to Brighton. And we’ve played with bands that have taken three hours to soundcheck for no reason, and Taking Back Sunday would just get up on stage and play one and half songs and then say, “Sorry, we’ll be quick.” It’s like, what? It’s got a lot more of a story to it like a concept so yeah it’s with my friend call Paul Steel.

And the bar staff just all came out and started screaming at us, and the security was like, “Why are you shouting at them?” (Laughs)Yeah, we did! This is amazing. Brighton feels more like a base to me. People!”Um… Manchester Orchestra, the Brighton show and we are going to Europe for a month, mainland Europe. All those nineties one hit wonders. Fragile Skin (Demo) 22. He just died a few years back actually but that was the main inspiration for our band because we love this guy. It’s hard. It really… Last year we had a really really small van and we did so much touring and we were so tired with being with that van. This is amazing! All our friends were side stage and we were all just laughing. I don’t know how it happened but our manager was like, “You need a record.” And we were like, “… Okay.” So we just found a month off. Um… Second reason is because we’re playing a lot of shows to new people and they’re just getting on board so saying we’ve got a new single coming out is kind of quite exciting for them and it introduces them to the record and then, that’s kind of the main reasons. The last show was The Great Escape Festival.I’ve never seen anything like it. And, a flexi-disc is basically a 7” vinyl but jelly.Basically, yeah but it disintegrates and it’s a real collectors item.

It’s perfect.” You’re never going to learn as a songwriter but we’ve been pretty rigorous with our new stuff and very militant about what’s making the cut and what’s not because we really want to write an incredible record.Right… The reason behind the re-release is because one, we didn’t think it got the publicity it deserved the first time round and it was quite a rushed release for us because we wanted to get festivals and we thought we needed a new single and it was all a bit hectic so we wanted to give it more time and get a really good radio plug on it which is what we’ve got now. Yeah, they’re one of our favourite bands so we’re excited.Yeah!

In the United States "Drinking in L.A." failed to generate interest from alternative stations, but in the United Kingdom and Canada, it continues to generate airplay. Ghost (Demo) 23. Yeah, I know. If you’re too tight about it and you’re like, “No one can touch this. Interview with… The Xcerts Interview with… Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. Interview with… James Vincent McMorrow Interview with… Big Deal Profiles Sleigh Bells Foster The People, Cults, The Skints Phantogram + Buke and Gass Dev No one else is releasing on flexi-disc. There’s no need for it. Imagine if the crowd did that for us…” But most people just stand there like, you know, crying [at our shows]. But you don’t need to take hours for a soundcheck. Not the worst billing because it was fun but they were like a stoner rock band and big riffs, and it was all guys in leather and it’s like, what? It was awesome. It plays… four times on a vinyl player and then it just…I don’t actually know what happens but I think it just stops working or it vanishes… I don’t know! And they play two songs and are done, and that was it.Yeah, exactly. Like I say it before every show now so all I say now is, “Rock solid.” And then still we go out there and we’re like, “Agh…Oh my god. It’s not anything like The Xcerts sound which is more personal but this stuff is really like the lyrics are pretty nonsensical at times. I was using it to rest my legs – getting the circulation going. We’re on the road so much. Not funny! We were just excited because we were like, “Oh, we’re going to be on at 1 in the morning and everyone’s going to be drunk and having fun.” And then, I don’t know what happened but literally the whole place was a hardcore punk show.
