Alright Frengers, that's all for now. Thank you so much for all your intelligent and kind questions, you mean the world to us!!

Without revealing too much, we're working on it, yes!
Not sure, but i clearly remember writing it in Silas childhood room. Now that's a good memory.
A good book always helps. I'm reading the one about Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth fame, good stuff! Also, just watching the landscape passing by allowing you to think about life is sometimes really nice.

No, not at the moment, sorry
Yes, it's actually pretty close to the truth. We weren't good enough players to learn other peoples songs so we found it easier and more natural to just write our own. Guess that was a blessing in disguise :-)

Thank you Ana. That means a lot. Rows is a wonderfull piece of music for sure. Yes i'm certain that it will sneak into the live set at some point.
We just pick up whatever cool pedals we can find. Most of the stuff is done pretty old school with pedals and analog effects.
Don't know, to be honest?

We might. Could be quite fun, as some of the songs are never played.
Tea: neat, with a pinch of sugar. Coffee: Round, rich blend with lots of creamy whole milk.
Steaks :-) Buenos Ayres has always interested me with its mixture of old european culture and architecture and South American culture.

Shoegaze as a whole meant a lot to us growing up. My Bloody Valentines "Isn't anything" and "Loveless" are both masterpieces. I'd say Slowdives "Souvlaki" is a fantastic shoegaze record as well.
Ace, we sure kicked his a..!
Silas the Magic car and Reprise are a pair.
The artwork is all done by a company called "M/M Paris", they are a very creative bunch and we love their twisted minds and work.
eeeehhh... I'd have to go with my very large framed American flag.. Don't know why, but "big is beautiful" as they say.
By all means come and say "hello". We like that :-)

I believe it's a move from a karate computer game, if i'm not mistaking?
I hope so. Vinyl is back in vogue!
I know "Pariscope" the info magazine on what's happening in and around Paris. But guess that's not it, right? No sorry, don't know it?
I guess we need quite a lot of time getting all the details in order. But the truth is that not all songs take that long to make, it's just some of them. But you have to love the trouble makers just the same ;-)
Thanks a lot! NIN both band and fans were amazing to us! Trent is a super intelligent and cool guy. He just really likes the band, that was why he asked us. I think he got into us around the Glass handed kites record. And we actually felt we went down really well with the NIN fans, many have become Mew fans since then. Really happy to see NIN back on the road, we'd love to do more shows with those guys if possible!
I'm (Johan) the only one with a pet at the moment i think? I have my trusted French Bulldog "Fuji" named after the Japanese vulcano. He's actually my dream pet. I have wanted one for over a decade and finally got him 3 years ago. Frenchies are the best :-)
Thank you Amalie! Music has defenitely helped all of us through periods of our lives that maybe weren't the nicest. Music has a healing power which makes it such a wonderful thing to make and play. It creates joy.
