\"Lonely<\/a><\/h3>\n

Ahead of Lonely The Brave’s co-headline show at CF10, Louis Browne sat down\u252c\u00e1with Bush and Ross from the band to discuss public showers, GCSE results and why\u252c\u00e1they class their sound as \u00d4\u00c7\u00ffdoom-pop’.<\/h3>\n

Quench Music (QM): So you’re four days into the Big Cheese tour with Marmozets, how has it\u252c\u00e1been so far?<\/em><\/p>\n

Andrew Bushen (bass): Brilliant, yeah great fun thanks.<\/p>\n

QM: This year has seen you blow up as a band and get on the radar of a lot of\u252c\u00e1new fans. With that in mind, did you see bigger crowds than ever before at\u252c\u00e1your festivals slots over the summer?<\/em><\/p>\n

AB: Ahh, definitely. We did Reading and Download last year, on the BBC\u252c\u00e1Introducing stage and the Red Bull tent, and then got bumped up a bit this year.<\/p>\n

Ross Smithwick (guitar): Even throughout the summer, you could tell as people\u252c\u00e1started to hear \u00d4\u00c7\u00ffBackroads’ on the radio. As the festivals went on there were\u252c\u00e1more people coming to each one, and more people singing and stuff. It was killer.<\/p>\n

AB: Yeah, that tent at Reading is huge and we were like \u00d4\u00c7\u00ffOh my god, is there going\u252c\u00e1to be anyone there?’\u252c\u00e1You know, as you get to the bigger stages it obviously doesn’t look very good\u252c\u00e1if there’s an empty tent!<\/p>\n

QM: Did you have any favourite festival slots this summer? How was playing\u252c\u00e1Glastonbury?<\/em><\/p>\n

AB: Yeah we did Glastonbury! I had never been before so it was a bit of an eye-
\nopener for me. I’d been to Reading loads and Download, but Glastonbury’s a\u252c\u00e1whole different world of craziness.<\/p>\n

RS: Reading was a special one for all of us because it was the festival we all went\u252c\u00e1to as kids. I saw loads of my favourite bands on that stage that we played.<\/p>\n

AB: I remember I got my GCSE results and then went off to Reading!<\/p>\n

QM: I did that too! It’s a sort of rite of passage isn’t it?<\/em><\/p>\n

RS: Yeah it was like, not giving a s*** about what results you got, and just\u252c\u00e1drinking in a field!<\/p>\n

QM: Was there anyone you saw there when you were younger who made you\u252c\u00e1think, \u00d4\u00c7\u00ffYeah I want to be in a band’?<\/em><\/p>\n

RS: Deftones. And I saw Rage Against The Machine there before they split up.<\/p>\n

AB: The first time I saw Queens Of The Stone Age was at Reading and Leeds, that\u252c\u00e1was a big one for me.<\/p>\n

RS: Interpol and Mars Volta were on the same stage we [just] played.<\/p>\n

QM: You mentioned Deftones and you’ve recently played with them haven’t\u252c\u00e1you? And Bruce Springsteen..?<\/em><\/p>\n

AB: Yeah we got some really nice slots! I mean, Deftones in Paris was\u252c\u00e1unbelievable. The Springsteen one was Hard Rock Calling, so we were on the\u252c\u00e1second stage and we got to hang around all day and watch Bruce later on, for all\u252c\u00e1his like three and a half hours… Don’t know how he does it!<\/p>\n

RS: Neil Young, as well over the summer, in Belgium, which was mental.<\/p>\n

AB: On my birthday! They were bringing champagne over and everything, it was\u252c\u00e1very hospitable.<\/p>\n

QM: What was the response in Europe like?<\/em><\/p>\n

AB: Yeah it’s been great. We’ve been out to Holland, Switzerland, Germany and\u252c\u00e1France, and everywhere seems to be really positive. You never really know what\u252c\u00e1you’re gonna get if you do your own headline shows in foreign countries, it’s\u252c\u00e1like \u00d4\u00c7\u00ffIs anyone gonna turn up?’ But, yes it’s been brilliant.<\/p>\n

RS: It’s that worry every single gig isn’t it! Like, \u00d4\u00c7\u00ffit’s gonna be awful,’ but then it’s\u252c\u00e1a packed room and we’ve been really lucky. It’s been awesome.<\/p>\n

QM: So, your album (The Day’s War) came out on the 1st.\u252c\u00e1Is it true you slept outside the studio in a van for a part\u252c\u00e1of the recording process?<\/em><\/p>\n

AB: Yeah, some of the time because it’s not a residential studio. It’s also a\u252c\u00e1rehearsal room, so when there was no one recording then we could just set up\u252c\u00e1camp beds in the studio. But when people were in and there was other stuff\u252c\u00e1going on, we’d go and sleep in the van or wherever we could find.<\/p>\n

RS: Park bench…<\/p>\n

AB: Yeah and it was January too, so it wasn’t the warmest. We had to go down to\u252c\u00e1the local swimming pool for showers and stuff like that. It was good fun though!<\/p>\n

QM: Did the circumstances add any grittiness to the sound or influence the\u252c\u00e1record in any way?<\/em><\/p>\n

AB: Yeah I guess so. I mean the songs were pretty much finished but I guess the\u252c\u00e1way it was recorded obviously affects how it sounds. But yeah, there was quite a\u252c\u00e1lot of stuff going on around the band, writing the songs and recording the songs.\u252c\u00e1\u00d4\u00c7\u00ffThe Day’s War’, the album’s title, was all about that day-to-day struggle.<\/p>\n

QM: In today’s world of music, many people see artists as commercial, vacuous\u252c\u00e1entities. Yet, you guys seem to connect with the listener in a way that is so\u252c\u00e1visceral and emotional.<\/em><\/p>\n

AB: Yeah, when we write something, if we feel it, we stick with it. If we don’t,\u252c\u00e1then it gets put to the side.<\/p>\n

RS: All the music we listen to is stuff that is emotional. For me personally \u00d4\u00c7\u00f4 I\u252c\u00e1mean, I do like some light-hearted stuff \u00d4\u00c7\u00f4 but the real stuff that really gets me, is\u252c\u00e1stuff that pulls at your heartstrings.<\/p>\n

AB: We like bands that make us feel something, like The National or Pearl Jam.<\/p>\n

RS: Like [bassist] Bush said, if we feel it, and it feels good, then we carry on\u252c\u00e1writing it.<\/p>\n

QM: Is it a conscious decision to write music that gives the listener that deep,\u252c\u00e1heartfelt feeling? Or is it simply a by-product of the way you write songs,\u252c\u00e1with the emotional intensity coming at a later point?<\/em><\/p>\n

AB: It’s a tricky one really. The music tends to come first, and then Dave will do\u252c\u00e1the vocals later on. He’ll be sitting there, sort of trying stuff out and then every\u252c\u00e1so often you’ll hear something and be like, \u00d4\u00c7\u00ffooh.’ It’s a natural process really. We\u252c\u00e1don’t think we need to write something that’ll be like that, it just kind of, comes\u252c\u00e1out.<\/p>\n

RS: There’ll be times when we’re thinking of writing a mellow track, and we try\u252c\u00e1it and it’s really nice. But then we try it a different way and it works much better.\u252c\u00e1We just go with the feel really.<\/p>\n

AB: Yeah, there’s a lot of trial and error.<\/p>\n

QM: \u00d4\u00c7\u00ffBackroads’ is a song that really hits hard, with some deep emotion\u252c\u00e1attached to it. The video for the song was shot in Ukraine and beautifully\u252c\u00e1visualises the theme of the song. How did the video come about?<\/em><\/p>\n

AB: Basically, someone got the track to the director of the video and he already\u252c\u00e1had the concept. He had met the guys with the longboards before, and wanted to\u252c\u00e1do something with them, but he wasn’t exactly sure what. So yeah, the two things\u252c\u00e1came together really well. I mean, I wouldn’t say the song necessarily inspired\u252c\u00e1he idea for the video, but it certainly seemed to fit it very well.<\/p>\n

RS: There’s no political edge from our point of view. Obviously it’s a political\u252c\u00e1subject, but the whole point of the video was to focus on the kids in it, and the\u252c\u00e1emotional struggle they’re going through.<\/p>\n

AB: With what’s been going on in Ukraine, people can take it as a political\u252c\u00e1statement, but it’s really about the kids.<\/p>\n

QM: Is it true the characters in it aren’t even actors?<\/em><\/p>\n

AB: No, they were kids the director met when he was out there, and obviously\u252c\u00e1inspired him to work with them. But yeah, we love the way it turned out.<\/p>\n

QM: The release of the album was delayed several months as a result of your\u252c\u00e1record deal with Columbia. Were you torn between signing to a huge label,\u252c\u00e1and then having to hold back the album?<\/em><\/p>\n

AB: It was a very difficult decision at the time, but now looking back I don’t think\u252c\u00e1we would have done it differently.<\/p>\n

QM: What’s the reception normally like for you in Wales then?<\/em><\/p>\n

AB: Pretty good! Yeah, we played here in the big room with Don Broco last\u252c\u00e1December, and that was really good. We’ve got some friends from Wales coming\u252c\u00e1down tonight, but yeah we’ll see how it goes.<\/p>\n

QM: Some people have been talking about a \u00d4\u00c7\u00ffBritish rock music revival’. Raw\u252c\u00e1guitar music is getting a lot more daytime play, with bands like You Me At\u252c\u00e1Six, Lower Than Atlantis, Royal Blood and yourselves becoming regulars\u252c\u00e1on the Radio 1 playlist. Do you see yourselves as sitting on a crest of a rock\u252c\u00e1music wave or is it just a cyclical trend within the industry?<\/em><\/p>\n

RS: It’s hard to tell! When you’re going along with it, it’s like a natural thing. You\u252c\u00e1don’t really think about how big you are or whatever.<\/p>\n

AB: You definitely notice more rock music on Radio 1 and that kind of thing, but\u252c\u00e1these things sort of come round in cycles.<\/p>\n

RS: They’re definitely supporting rock music and certain bands really well. Like\u252c\u00e1us \u00d4\u00c7\u00f4 luckily \u00d4\u00c7\u00f4 and Royal Blood.<\/p>\n

AB: If we’re thought of in the same grouping as those bands, it’s obviously a great\u252c\u00e1honour. We’re just happy to be here really!<\/p>\n

QM: You have this big, potentially arena-filling sound, with people liking Dave’s\u252c\u00e1vocals to Eddie Vedder’s. Do you think about transferring your songs to a\u252c\u00e1big stage when you’re writing them?<\/p>\n

AB: No, well even with this album we had no concept of what was going to\u252c\u00e1happen with it. We were just playing small local venues and as far as we knew,\u252c\u00e1that was as big as it was going to be. The fact that we’ve got to do some pretty\u252c\u00e1big stages this year has been just mind-blowing. It was never written with any\u252c\u00e1particular goal in mind, it was just what came out really.<\/p>\n

RS: We’ve done one or two arenas. Actually, it was here in Cardiff supporting\u252c\u00e1A Day To Remember. We found out about two weeks before and it went down.\u252c\u00e1I think we pulled it off!<\/p>\n

AB: We didn’t know how it was going to go down because of the different genres\u252c\u00e1on the lineup, but it was fine.<\/p>\n

QM: You do seem to have this sound that can crossover multiple genres, and\u252c\u00e1actually describe yourselves as \u00d4\u00c7\u00ffdoom-pop’. What’s that about?<\/em><\/p>\n

AB: We were touring with a band called Bad Rabbits and one of the guys said\u252c\u00e1that’s what we sounded like. It’s kind of cool really and it stuck.<\/p>\n

QM: When you play live, your singer, Dave stands towards the back, near the\u252c\u00e1drums. Without prying into your sensitivities too much, is this down to\u252c\u00e1anxiety or nerves, or is just where he feels comfortable?<\/p>\n

RS: Yeah it’s where he’s always been.<\/p>\n

AB: It’s pretty much the same in the practice room. We never thought about\u252c\u00e1it that much as it’s always been that way really. You always have that thought\u252c\u00e1when you wonder if people are going to get it or not, and sometimes people do,\u252c\u00e1sometimes they don’t. It’s just the way it’s always been for us.<\/p>\n

RS: It’s not a gimmick or anything, it’s just the way he feels.<\/p>\n

QM: Yeah, I suppose it adds to the intimacy and realism of it all and draws you\u252c\u00e1closer to the lyricism of the songs in a live environment.<\/em><\/p>\n

AB: Yeah and I have always liked vocalists like Mark Lanegan who’s not going to\u252c\u00e1be jumping around the stage, just standing there looking cool.<\/p>\n

QM: I’m sure people appreciate and can focus on the vocals in a different way\u252c\u00e1then. Besides, that means that you guys can do all the running around!<\/em><\/p>\n

AB\/RS: Laughs. Yeah we’re doing all that!<\/p>\n

QM: Your debut album only came out a matter of weeks ago, but it was a long\u252c\u00e1time in the making. Has this timeframe allowed you to write any new\u252c\u00e1material and tuck it away for the next record?<\/em><\/p>\n

RS: Yeah we managed to actually fit a bit of writing in over the summer, in\u252c\u00e1between all the festivals. We’ve got a good few ideas ready for when the time\u252c\u00e1comes for the next stuff.<\/p>\n

AB: We’re just trying to piece together stuff for the second record, but obviously\u252c\u00e1it’s a long way off yet.<\/p>\n

QM: Do you think that the position you’re in now will change the sentiment of\u252c\u00e1the next record? As you said, a lot of The Day’s War was about struggles and\u252c\u00e1hardship, so will this album be lighter and about what you’re doing now?<\/p>\n

RS: There’ll obviously be a change because times change, and people change. It won’t be a conscious thing though.<\/p>\n

AB: I think we’ll just let it come naturally and see what comes out really, but it’s\u252c\u00e1exciting!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
