This is the first chapter of us developing our own sound and now it's time to build on that - to ask, 'whats our story?'

didn't he say that for American Slang also?

Given your plans to tour through to the winter,

Even the mid-tempo songs are intense and guitar heavy. It's definitely not a laid-back record, it's explosive and it bursts out at you. That's the kind of thing we were feeling.

This album is gonna murder me.

Agreed. Me too.

Just read it. Great interview

That was a great interview! I love how excited Brian is over this record. I just know that it's going to be epic.

Overall it's a good interview, but I hate when English writers misquote Americans as saying things that an American clearly would never say.

What I'm referring to is Brian allegedly saying the phrase "half-arsed". I'm pretty sure he said half-assed.

I'm loving the passion I'm getting from Brian in these brief interviews. I'm growing more and more confident that Handwritten is going to be a killer record.

Ah... yes. Great interview! I have a feeling it's going to be a killer record also. One that will potentially launch them to arena sized concerts. Which, is sad in a way that it wont be the same smaller sized shows we've been used to...but exciting for them as a band to get bigger, and as Brian said, give more of their profits back to charity. I guess we can't be selfish fans anymore...

So excited for the new album!!

I have a feeling he did lol... If brian tries to get any more personal here the lyrics are just gonna be a picture of him eating an ice cream cone lol.
