“Absolutely I had my punk rock phase – I see plenty of things to rebel against. At this point of my life, personally, I’m rebelling against being an arrested development adolescent – that’s worth rebelling against.”

“We’re looking at going over to Europe hopefully – we’ll be getting confirmation about that at the end of March.”

“I’ve got a great family, a beautiful wife, two kids, and just bought a house about two years ago. I work a job and it’s been pretty good. I drink beer and watch sport. Life’s good. I still like rock’n’roll too man.”

“I think that we’ve never really aimed to play the songs like on the record – we’ve never really cared about that – so the songs naturally evolve on their own in lots of different ways.”

“Right now we’re trying these ideas out as a band, and we’ll see which songs live or die, or at least make it to our tour in Australia,”

“I’m still learning; I still see myself as a student – and I’m ready for things now. Some of these songs I’ve written I wouldn’t have ten years ago."

"With a band you can sort of bounce ideas off other people, whether that’s songwriting or just day-to-day stuff, so you have that constant support in the group, that pack mentality. But sometimes with that you tend to lose your voice a little bit."

“I don’t think I realised quite what would be released, emotionally, when the album was released.”

“I just want to go ahead and make a whole album, I can’t be bothered doing the next EP.”

“I guess that [electronic music] has always been our MO to this day, even on Odd Soul, which ended up sounding very organic and jammed out.”

"It’s gonna be Iggy’s call, because he’s the one who’s taken the most beating out there doing what he does; imagine yourself doing what he does out there at his age? It’s really unbelievable that he’s even doing it.”

“A lot of kids were nagging AJ [Maddah] over Twitter to put us on the bill, and hopefully he doesn’t hate us because of it, but luckily he made an exception last minute and he fit us on the [line-up] which I’m very thankful for.”
