-Influencias (Influences)
PHIL - The Beatles, The Who, Johnny Marr/ The Smiths, punk/new wave bands like The Jam and Buzzcocks, The Kinks.
-Anécdotas (anecdotes)
PHIL - We once had a rehearsal cut short by the police, who'd received numerous calls from our neighbours about the noise. It turns out they'd driven past a few times and liked our music, so they were very apologetic about asking us to stop. They even asked for a signed CD.
-Habladnos sobre vuestra música (tell us something about yout music)
PHIL - It's basically four guys playing drums and guitars and singing. We all listen to rock and roll, but we also have very different tastes, and I think that gives us a sound that is pretty hard to define. It IS rock, but it's something more than that if you listen. There are elements of dance too, as well as melodies influenced by music from 50 years ago. The easiest thing to do is listen and make your own minds up.
LEE - It's just honest music that everyone can relate to.
-¿Qué pensáis de la escena Británica? (What do u think about the British scene?
PHIL - The British scene has always been important to world music, and there are still a lot of great artists emerging, people like Jake Bugg and Miles Kane, and bands like The Vaccines and Band Of Skulls. But there are great bands everywhere, it just seems a bit harder to find them nowadays because people seem more interested in manufactured pop and karaoke on TV.
LEE - There are some great bands in Britain, but most of them go unnoticed because of the disposable shit that the record companies manufacture to try and sell as many records as possible. There's not a lot of credible music about these days.
-Sois de Liverpool ¿Qué se siente sabiendo que es una de las cunas de la música? (You are from Liverpool; what do you feel when you feel that you are on one of the most important cities of Uk (musicalli)?)
PHIL - Well we formed in Melbourne, so we have a very open, international view. But we feel a lot of good energy in this city, and a lot of people support what we do. The musical history is great here, so it's nice to be a part of that.
LEE - The people in Liverpool love music, so they support bands that emerge from here. We have a very loyal fanbase in this city.
-The Beatles o Kasabian?
PHIL - I like them both, but for different reasons...The Beatles pretty much invented modern song writing, but Kasabian are great before a night out! And good music is all about how it makes you feel so they're both excellent.
LEE - Without The Beatles, there would be no Kasabian.
-¿Queréis tocar en The cavern? )Do you wanna play on the Cavern?
PHIL - We already played at The Cavern in April; it was a fantastic show, everyone had a great time!
-¿Qué no puede faltar en un día de ensayo (What do you need whe you are on the garage playing? (beers...))
PHIL - We all need to have fun while we rehearse; it lets ideas flow. Beer is good also.
LEE - I don't drink too many beers at rehearsal. I see it as work. Party time comes after the gigs!
-MCR está a escasos minutos en tren ¿Qué destacáis de cada ciudad? (MCR is so close on train, What do you like of both cities?)
PHIL - We love both cities...Manchester has an amazing music history (The Smiths, Joy Division, Oasis, Buzzcocks) and it's always a good night out in Manchester. Liverpool feels like home now, we have so many friends and supporters here. Both cities are great.
LEE - They're both very different, but they're both equally as important to bands.
-Reading fest o Glastombury
PHIL - Probably Glastonbury, because it's the King of Festivals.
LEE - I would be happy to play either!
-NME, BBC... los medios se vuelcan con los grupos, ¿Esperáis que os ayuden un poco?. (NME, BBC... a lot of different media groups tend to suport groupd, Do you spect to be suported by they?
PHIL - It's always nice to receive support, from anyone. We want to get our music out to everyone in the world, and support helps that.
LEE - We are currently in contact with Dave Monks of BBC Merseyside, and he likes our music. Hopefully he will play some soon.
-¿Dónde podemos encontrar vuestra música? (Where can we buy your music?)
PHIL - Our music is available on iTunes.
-Fechas próximas y novedades (News and some dates)
PHIL - We just released our debut single, and will be touring major cities in the UK in the next few months.
LEE - We also just toured in Croatia, which was amazing! The fans really enjoyed our sound. We are excited to go back to more European countries to play our music.
-La gente (entre ellos yo) quiere veros tocar en España ¿Será posible? (People wanna se u in Spain; Will It be possible?
PHIL - We would love to come to Spain, hopefully in early 2013...if you guys want to listen, we will come!
LEE - Any help from promoters in Spain would be great - email us!
