"We’ve been booked for a few festivals that haven’t been announced yet – we’ve got a few up our sleeve for Australia over the summer. Then we’ll start looking overseas.”

"It was scary – it was very scary,” Margin explains. “Suddenly we had all these eyes on us and all these record labels after us. We knew we needed them because we were over there living off our parents’ money that we’d borrowed."

“Really, I just want a copy of the album to give to my mum and I want a copy of the album to sit in my bedroom. Anything beyond that will be just a bonus, really.”

“Bands like Queen, [The] Beach Boys, even The Beatles – the greatest thing about those bands was their sense of adventure. That ability to go, ‘Well, that instrument doesn’t really go with this genre but we’ll do it anyway.’ That’s the fun of music, I think.”

"I feel weird saying it but I’m interested in the Olympics. I didn’t think I would be at all. It’s always seemed to me that everyone in London has been paranoid about being nationalistic."

"We thought it was going to be a really quick process because we had all these offers. We just thought, ‘Alright, we’re going to take one, then we’ll have the money to make one,’ but it’s not like that at all."

"I think we’re gonna be able to do a lot of cool stuff on this record and, really, we’re excited that the guys are down with us doing it. And I’m really excited that we’re actually going to do it."

"It was not exactly a break-up... What happened was, we put a pause on the entire project because back then we needed the space to get our families up and have some time to chill out."

"It’s like the entire group has received this collective breath of fresh air, this inspired vigour for music and life, and we thought it was just that initial getting-back-together, things-slotting-into-place phase. But it’s continued into 2012, and it has revitalised us."

"We’ll definitely opt to take it to a more deeper side of things just because we love that European, cold, dark sound."

“We have changed so dramatically that In Hindsight is a new start for us. Even though the last three years have happened and informed everything, Hunting Grounds feels like a new band starting out all over again.”

“For the old stuff, I dunno if I’d call it punk but what people call punk these days is, like, The Used or Green Day or something. You know, both not very good.”

"I was battling demons in my head for ages," 360 tells us how he managed to stay true to himself as he tries to figure out how it all went so right.

“I know there are people out there who’ve started well but only ended up having a one album career."

"But I think Pond’s main aim, the thing that we consciously think about with the songs and influences and stuff is just trying to write in a classic manner”

“We thought that everyone thought we were just stoner idiots and so we wanted to prove – to ourselves – that we could write pop songs, choruses.” Drummer/guitarist Jay Watson also informs Bryget Chrisfield that Pond’s band members have “grown up a bit”.
