just keep going to shows. Do you have a favourite spot in Norwich, then? In terms of bars, I really like Franks Bar- it’s proper nice. Mischief as well, there’s so many memories in there. I do really love the lanes. I also always go to Alchemista- that coffee place... Where do you find yourself now? I’ll tell you what, I do like Eaton Park. Eaton Park is well nice, especially in the mornings. I sometimes go there with a coffee and honestly the architecture there is great. You were talking a lot about the emo scene, what do you think shapes your music tastes, what do you listen to or what have you listened to? I think I’ve gone through every single phase. I think the main shaping of my music taste was my sister with goth music – Escape the Fate and all that kinda stuff. Then I moved a bit more towards pop punk, then kinda indie I guess like Circa Waves and all that. Whereas now it’s just music that’s authentic, or real- I mean everyone would say that about their music taste. I suppose I also listen to a lot of hip-hop now. Do you think hip-hop has a lot of influence on your writing now? I think artists like Frank Ocean really inspire me, like the detail that goes into what he produces and the concepts behind what he does and the way he distributes his art, is really inspiring. I think hip-hop is kinda shaping that. Overall, I think hip-hop is breaking a lot of boundaries, which a lot of rock bands aren’t. I hate putting all those soundbites out, but there’s some bands coming through, like IDLES and Shame that are all doing something new. Like I think that IDLES are one of the most important British punk bands to ever happen. How would you describe what your sound is, and how is the new lineup going? I guess the sound at the moment has that melancholic veneer around it, but overall it seems quite upliſting. Especially with the stuff we have written recently. It’s homing in a lot on that- lyrically still sad I guess. In terms of the new line-up we are all kinda on the same page... now with the collection
