Q: Do you guys have any pre-show rituals?
D: Not really, we spice each other up, but we don’t really have any rituals.

Q: In 2015 you released ‘Indian Summer’. Was the writing/recording program any different than the last time?
D: Yeah, we were a lot more prepared this time. We went straight into it the second time, because we did a lot beforehand. We recorded in Thailand and the first one there as well. From Australia it’s a 9-hour flight, but it’s the coolest place ever.

Q: How has the Impericon tour been so far?
D: It’s been sick, the first two shows has been Oberhausen and Leipzig, I think this is the  3rd show. We’re doing the Never Say Die tour as well. I’m very excited for today, we’re here and it’s awesome. I think here and Paris are my two favourite places to go.

Q: What are you biggest influences as a musician?
D: For myself Rage Against The Machine, they’re awesome, they’re a massive influence. I really like letlive., they’re awesome as well. Influences can go from 70’s, 80’s, really all generations.

Q: You guys are kinda new, two records. Hopefully, there will be a lot of people who haven’t heard from you who are reading this. How would you describe your music in just 5 words?
D: Energy, emotional, fun, vibrant and smiling, we’re always smiling.

Q: Is there anything in particular that inspired you to become a musician?
D: I grew up listening to music. Some kids grow up and wanna be a pilot or something. But kids who grow up listening to music wanna be a musician, so it’s kind of a dream come true.

Q: What can we expect from you later this year or maybe next year?
D: We’re putting out an album in July/August. We just finished recording that.

Q: If you could put together your favourite line-up, who would you wanna tour with? Dead or alive.
D: Rage Against The Machine is definitely one. Or Blink, Blink-182 would be sick as well. Or actually My Chemical Romance. We all love that.

Q: What's your favourite track to play live?
D: I really like to play 'Nottingham', that's my favourite track to play live. I like the songs that are a lot faster, but I love to play 'Nottingham'.
​
Q: Do you have any advice for bands that are just starting?
D: It's hard to give advice, 'cause you're always learning, everyone is always learning. Just don't give up. There might be dark times, but try to get through it, 'cause there's always gonna be great times and dark times.
