“I wouldn’t say that our desire to do this stuff has receded, it’s just changed. Now when we go out on tour, we really want it to count."

“It’s going to sound exactly like the record because that’s something we really want to do on this cycle, make sure that fans can hear everything they can hear on the record…"

You’re Nothing is the sound of a one-time hype band making good on their indubitable promise.

"Being on the road is a crazy lifestyle dude, it will drive you insane and will make you think crazy things…"

"We’ve been listening to a lot of ‘90s rock and more alternative stuff so I’m sure that somewhere along the line that stuff would have influenced us. I’m not sure how, but I reckon that it would have.”

“It’s the most excited I’ve felt about the band since we’ve started. I just feel like it’s fresh... The whole thing’s a long journey, it’s just fun to live it out.”

One of the biggest and best instalments of the long-running institution to date, bring on next year!
