The album is unpredictable, and has hooks and turns in every song which make you want to keep on listening

"We’ve been sort of pretty distant and absent from the scene for quite a while, and we’ve been focusing on getting the new material ready to go and we tend to fuss over the details."

"I mean I’d like to do some other stuff, I’d like to do some heavier stuff and some more experimental things. I don’t know, maybe we’ll do it with Senses Fail or maybe I’ll do it with another band."

"It’s definitely something that you constantly have to work on. I’m lucky because my wife supports me completely and supports what I do and I know it’s not easy necessarily for her you know."

Feel could rub some die-hard fans the wrong way with such a massive change in their sound, but the band have delivered their most poignant and honest release to date.

"We want to treat every show, every song and every opportunity as our last so we try not to think about it and keep going."

Like its predecessor in Discoveries (2011), Singularity has pushed Northlane into new ground, this time emerging as a career defining release.

“There’s nothing that gives me more meaning and purpose in my life other than spreading a message through music and being able to reach and influence a lot of people and a lot of young minds out there."

Perth managed to round out Soundwave 2013 in style, and minimal hiccups along the way.

“I like the smaller, more intimate shows, as generic as that probably sounds. Realistically, I mean I don’t even know if I’d like to be that popular.”

True North continues to solidify Bad Religion’s empowering dynasty, confirming and reiterating that they are still one of punk’s pre-eminent bands.
