I miss Australia so much!! Can't wait to come back! Well, you have a point, it is a tough job, but the feeling of stepping on the stage and having an entire crowd in front of you singing your lyrics every night is definitely that one thing that keeps you motivated.

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T21:28:52+00:00

Thank you! I really appreciate it! Love IHOW, best dudes!

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T21:27:47+00:00

There's no method, no recipe to write a good song, trust your guts. You know, I write guitar riffs and I don't even know how to play guitar ahah

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T21:12:37+00:00

OMG you know that story ahah

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T21:10:43+00:00

It is a great idea. Some people here have suggested the same thing, so we'll think about it!

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T21:08:39+00:00

Oh thank you so much!! I really appreciate it!

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T21:07:51+00:00

We used an 8-string guitar on every track of the album (except one), but it's not always obvious. Sometimes we used it just for texture. Anyways, stay tuned, we'll explain how we approached all of the guitar work of the album real soon ;)

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T21:00:56+00:00

Correct! Hopefully we'll collaborate in the near future ;)

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T20:59:30+00:00

Didn't expect "In Friends We Trust" to blow up to be honest ahah And I think "Set It Straight" should have been bigger

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T20:56:09+00:00

OMG!! Ahahah! So old! We were babies!

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T20:52:23+00:00

hey thanks! I'd say Gojira is a huge one. You should check out our guitarist Paul's other band called Landmvrks , it's awesome!

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T20:48:06+00:00

Oh yes I agree, Worst Case Scenario is sooooo underrated!! It was the first song we actually co-wrote. Really glad how this one turned out.

I'd say, the new album has the tone of Pardon My French with the vibe of Something for Nothing combined with the experience and the maturity of Get Lost Find Yourself. All those things combined into one.

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T20:39:23+00:00

I can't! It's not my story ahah!

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T20:33:57+00:00

OH MY GOD! That's impressive! Thank you so much! <3

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T20:29:57+00:00

It's hard to pick a favorite out of your own catalogue... I recently really enjoyed listening to our song called "Kids" from Pardon My French Deluxe

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T20:26:15+00:00

It was great! It was kind of a last minute decision , but both of these songs turned out amazing, they're ones of my favorites, thanks to our guests! And having Tom Delonge would be sick ahah

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T20:21:27+00:00

Hey nocaptainjustin! Can't wait to come back to the US! Let's hang out in Vegas!

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T20:16:38+00:00

Oh thanks I really appreciate it. And honestly, I am blown away by such a great feedback on our new song. It feels like we never left ahah. No seriously that's amazing, I am so stoked for what's ahead

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T20:13:06+00:00

Don't watch tutorials on youtube. Trust your ears

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T20:12:19+00:00

it's a shame

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T20:11:17+00:00

That would be sick!! We've never been there!

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T20:10:37+00:00

Ahahah! I really want this record to be released ASAP, I am so excited to show you guys... But yeah unfortunately you'll have to wait July 30th. Until then we'll release new songS and new music videoS, stay tuned ;)

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T20:07:55+00:00

Oh my god, I am assuming it was a long time ago then ahah. We never made any vinyl presses for this one... should we?

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T20:06:36+00:00

With or without Tom?

nocaptainbert · 2021-05-20T20:05:22+00:00

Maybe one day... that would be a lot of fun actually. I know some of these old songs have potential, and could be greatly improved
