1. Your new album is called “Make History”… who the fuck do you guys think you are?
Answer: The title is meant to suggest a few things. First, it’s supposed to be a bit cocky, in the sense that yes, there is no way our band is going to ever achieve something on the level of the Beatles or Nirvana, but who is to say that you aren’t allowed to try? Additionally, we are attempting to encourage the idea that life is short and that everybody needs to try and carve out their own bit of history in whatever they do. Paint a picture. Make a record. Walk an old lady across the street. Shit like that. Also, who the fuck do you think YOU are, sir?
2. I’m the guy who asks the questions, son. Next one: You guys change members more often than Lindsay Lohan changes bikinis. What happens to the former members after they leave the band?
Answer: Most often, they are sent off to a farm to incubate for a few months. They grow back the hair they’ve lost, begin a more regular diet, and attempt to relearn how to sleep in actual beds, rather than on the floor of a dirty punk-house in Madison, Wisconsin. Soon they are released back into the world as model citizens, primed to make babies, buy houses, and take their girlfriends/wives out to eat with ease. The remaining members of the band watch from afar, constantly peering into their empty wallets, trying to imagine what it would look like with a couple Abe Lincolns chilling up in there.
3. We heard you guys turned into pussies on the new album. What happened?
Answer: Fuck you dude. Suck our dicks.
4. Seriously though, what happened?
Answer: Dude. FUCK YOU.
5. Fine, but I was just curious.
Answer: Fine, but I was just curious.
6. Don’t mock me!
Answer: All right.
7. My, aren’t you smug? I just thought you guys would like the opportunity to defend the change in direction you made on the new album. I guess I could have worded it differently. Calling you “pussies” probably isn’t the best way to get on your good side, now is it?
Answer: No it’s not, but we accept your apology. We’re just really sensitive about that kind of thing, you know? Anyway, yes, the new album does take a turn away from the dance-influenced spastic punk that we’re sort of known for, and focuses more on the lyrics and achieving an overall timelessness in the songs. In this age of Myspace and manufactured punk, it seems that anything with energy and abandon to it has to also lack ambition in order to sell some records. We’re more in the mind of trying to make a record that you want to hear ten years from now instead of ten days from now.
8. Wow. That’s pretty deep. Oh, will you guys ever learn how to play Kariki?
Answer: Nope.
9. Does your second album suck?
Answer: No, actually it’s pretty fucking good.
10. The show is over. Who wants Taco Bell?
Answer: We do.
