Believe it or not, they’re already looking to the follow up…
Hey Mark, what have you been up to today?
I’ve been in hospital all day having my infusion in time for the tour. Fun!
How are you all at the mo; it’s been ages. Are you hard at work on your new album?
I can’t answer for the other two; Ant seems great. Tristan… the less I hear from Tristan, the better.
We’ve finished the new album! Just been deep into rehearsals getting ready for the Deaf Havana tour [in November].
How many songs have you completed for the album so far? Can you let us in on any song titles or themes?
Album? Completed it mate. We went for a little bit of a concept based around the moon, light and black etc. The first half of the album will be a lot more upbeat than the second. It’s a super dynamic album though. Lots of strings and brass sections! So much fun to record.
Was there anything you learnt during the making of ‘I’m Not Well’ that’s helped you out on this one?
We’re a much tighter unit now so we could really have fun on this one. The first was a little stressful given the content, it was a new experience for us, and we were putting ourselves under a lot of pressure. We honestly just learnt to have fun with it.
Do you have any other plans for 2018 yet?
We’ve got a headline run in the pipeline; we plan to get over to Europe and America again too. We’re just so excited to get stuck in; it’s going to be a crazy busy year next year, so we’re all preparing ourselves mentally for that.
Aside from your own, which album are you most looking forward to being released next year?
Idles over absolutely anything else. That band are unreal.
Are you guys up to anything fun over Christmas?
We get back from the Havana run on the 25th November and then I plan on chilling the hell out. I’m off to Dublin with some mates before Christmas for a catch up which will be cool. We’re also planning to start writing for the third record over Christmas; we really want to stay ahead of the game on it. We’re aware just how busy next year will be so we’re trying to keep on top of everything.
Will you be making any New Year’s resolutions?
Just to push myself as hard as I can to make this career as viable as possible. Every year we tick off some amazing festivals and tour supports so next year let’s say Jools Holland and a Biffy tour.
