So how has your latest album/EP gone so far with fans then?
Until now we have released 6 singles “The Brighter Side”, “Fire Dancer”, “Life”, “Police Of The Soul”, “Hard Times” and “Bad Love”. There has been an overall good response to them and we see it as a good sign for the coming next album that will be released on the 18th of may.
Tell us something about the release no one knows?
Well, once we were in the studio and due to a thunderstorm there was kind of an electric short… we also discovered that some vital batteries ran off. The problem was that it was on a Sunday so, while the producer and the sound engineer stayed back to replace some fuses, we had to drive several miles in the storm to find a shop open to buy them and get back on working.
If you could work with any band on a new song, who would it be and why?
Oh man, four heads four different answers… probably we agree on Foo Fighters because of the incredible energy and the uncanny ability to find really good tunes.
How has your latest release been received?
Probably “Bad Love” has had the best reviews so far… in a way it is surprising considering the length of 7.18 but at the same time it is very gratifying because apparently we’ve been able to convey the emotions the way we wanted regardless the non radio standard.
Can you tell us about the meaning behind the track?
Well, it’s a love story that probably every one has experienced in their life… a toxic but intoxicating one. This is about the memories that still haunts you afterwards and understanding that you will never be totally free from it.
What tours do you have coming up, and what can you tell us about them?
The plans are not defined yet aside that in September we’ll be touring in eastern Europe.
What venue are you most looking forward to playing the most, and why?
Madison Square Garden of course! (Laughs!!)
What else can we expect from you in 2023?
We expect a lot of lives but if can squeeze in some recordings there could be at least a new single!
