You guys are clearly influenced by bands like New Found Glory, Set Your Goals, Four Year Strong, what is it you love so much about this type of music ? I don't feel like we are really influenced by the bands you mentioned, we like them but the thing we had in mind when we started was to bring something a little bit different from the basic poppunk and we all listen to different kinds of music so we tried to bring these things into our music but we never said "Ok man,let's start a band like four year strong or a day to remember". I always listened to pop punk from my 8 years old and then i grew up with metal and hardcore things so i wanted to mix those roots into this project to bring a more energic and angry pop punk than usually.It feels good to play something that is generally happy with a negative approach. All we want is to bring pop-punk & hardcore kids all together in the pit!

Coming from Paris, can you tell us what the music scene is like there ? Horrible ahah if you like Old school rock&roll,bad indie rock or shitty electro come to Paris! In france the worst movement is called "Baby rock",the plastiscines or BB brunes are the leaders...it sucks dude! Btw there's a small scene with some good bands like can't bear this party,Mary has gun or the earl grey but don't come to france for music,you should rather come to eat some frogs,sausages,snails and cheese (we've got the best on earth!).

After cancelling your last UK tour, when will you guys be back ? We'll be back in december for 6 shows from the 18th to the 23th with some good local bands like Ready set low or maycomb. all the dates are not already booked at that time but all the shows will be listed on our myspace page so stay Tuned,can't wait to be back!
