1) Is it possible to chase after phantoms and not die?
2) What was a better movie:
Phantoms with Ben Affleck or The Phantom with Billy Zane?
3) Much
like the character Billy Zane portrayed, do you feel like there should be a band
that plays in masks and is only known by a stage name, so that they can more or
less live on forever, being inherited from generation to generation?
I think if they had the forethought KISS could’ve done it.
4) Canada seems to be rapidly
growing in the music scene, perhaps now more than ever before.
What are your thoughts on that?
5) I have
never seen the show Mad Men, but it is on the Netflix. Do you
recommend watching it?
6) Do you
have any plans for physical releases in the future?
7) Final
thoughts, questions, shout outs, advice to stay warm in cold climate,
etc…??
1) Haha I am not sure about that
one. The band name is intended to express a semi-apathetic outlook on life, that
you do a bunch of stupid stuff and then pass away having accomplished nothing of
value. It is the wrong way to live but is a view seemingly shared more and more
by the masses. So in that sense I would say it is not possible, but who am I to
say.
2) I'm afraid I haven't had the pleasure of viewing either of those films, but The Phantom Menace is one of my favorites in the Star Wars series.
3) I believe the imaginary band you're talking about may already exist. Pussy Riot is a Russian punk band that consists of various female members who all wear masks and use different stage names. They are strong advocates for equal rights across genders and speak out against Putin. I think it is an awesome idea.
4) Canada has a strong and diverse music scene and it is definitely exciting to see it grow! For most genres you can name one Canadian band that has found worldwide success with their work. I am especially proud of all the local artists in the Edmonton area as well as our neighbours in Calgary. I've had the pleasure of seeing and playing with some really great local bands over the past year in my home town. On a global scale, Montreal's Arcade Fire who experienced great success with The Suburbs have announced a new album for this fall which I am definitely looking forward to.
5) Mad Men is really great and I definitely recommend it. Unfortunately I do not have Netflix and missed season six when it was on TV so I have to wait for a while to buy it on DVD.
6) There is a possibility that We Only Say Goodbye will see a physical release. Probably just a limited amount on CD to give out at a show that I might be playing in late August, or just to give to friends and supporters. However I already have the idea for my next project in the works which I hope to record proffesionaly and release on vinyl.
7) Drink lots of coffee. Thanks for the interview.
