Talking about the musical direction they are heading in, Lacey stated: " I think that ‘Daisy’ was like the end of a road, and I get the impression we all feel like we might need to back track a little bit and find another place where we could’ve gone off. I don’t think we’ll go into writing this record from the standpoint of coming out of ‘Daisy’, and into the next thing, it will probably be more around album number two or three, where maybe we had another conception then of where we could have gone off, and maybe we‘ll try to re-discover that."


This will be interesting...

Secondly, because it's such a good interview, I don't know why people source things through secondary
sites and whatever when they post news here.

Where's Deviant to criticise this article?

Deviant has plenty of reason to criticize and be generally unhappy with the state of the news posts on this site lately. I mean at least put a little bit of thought into it and even just write a couple sentences. I think when you read a news article you should come away with at least a little bit of background on the band and their recent history, but lately people just find something out about a band they like and run to sputnik as fast as they can to share it. I think the idea of letting users post stuff like this is great and allows for a much wider and less-biased coverage of things in the music scene, they just definitely need to be actively monitored and not just unanimously green-lighted.


In other news, fucking stoked for this.

I was pretty sure that they were due to break up any day now ('Daisy' has suuuuch a 'last album' feel to it) but I'm glad to see that's not the case. Maybe this means I will get a chance to see them live finally...

I hope they go neofolk post-grunge grind with some black metal and post-rock influences laid over the top.


In all seriousness though, I read (after they released Daisy.) that they had thought about using a lot more sampling and relying more heavily on instrumentation. It would be sweet if they went down that road whilst keeping some heavy lyrical content layered in there. This might be great.

It might suck too... I hope it doesn't suck. I love these guys.

Maybe it'll just flow though. I have high expectations. Regardless, i'm pretty certain in the fact it will be at the LEAST a 3. Probably a 4, hopefully an instant classic.

" Not sure I'd consider YFW to be "happy" considering almost every song seems to be about a break-up. I'd love to hear them go back a bit to their pop-punk roots though."

I would personally absolutely abhor an album reminiscent of YFW. I love YFW, but in a nostalgic way, I never turn to it when I want some deep musical prowess, I turn to it when I want a somewhat 'fun' little album. I hope they strip down the filler, go minimalistic, make use of field-recordings, acoustics, and strong instrumentation. Either way, I'm sure I'll love that, but that's the direction I'd love them to go.
