Current band members? Gavin Burrough, Rich Boucher, Kris Coombs-Roberts, Matt Davies and Ryan Richards.
You’re in the studio right now, how’s that going? Really good, busy and productive. The process of putting your songs together is exciting and fun, it's nice to hear the finished thing after everyone has put their pieces on.
How did you come up with the idea to pledge yourselves via pledgemusic.com for the new EP the Young and Defenceless? basically the Pledge idea already existed and they approached us with the concept. It was something we felt positive about as we've always made sure that our fans get something unique and distinctive with everything we do. We've always taken the time to involve them in various bits and pieces but never in a way like this so it seemed both fun and innovative.
What can you tell us about the new EP which was recorded with the awesome Romesh Dodangoda? (Check Issue 2 for interview) The Young and Defenceless is a chance for people to see where we as a band are headed both musically and aesthetically. We've always thought that we write music that challenges peoples ideas of what the band is and this is no different. The EP shows off our angrier side.
How’s the writing process been with new members Gavin Burrough and Richard Boucher? It's been incredible and enormously productive. Everyone works well together and we all know what kind of personalities we have. We've found a way to write that prevents us from feeling hindered and held back. The doors are open and the stuff we've been writing is the best stuff we've done in years.
