Tim Burgess on Freebass

“I think Freebass is a great band for bass players. It’s a great concept, no-one else has done it, and there are three really strong characters there that’ve all played in extremely brilliant bands”.

Hooky on Two Worlds Collide

“The EP starts with a clock ticking, to signify the passing of time, then the four tracks and then into a playground. one of my favourite sounds. I remember from my childhood, when I was off school ill, my house was next to another school and I’d hear the kids at play time, it always reminds me of that! It was strange to hear it from your house, where your kind of divorced from it? I always loved the sound, because to me it’s about hope, the future, the joy of life, the spirit.”            

“The E.P shows the process as a musician that you go through. The sample at the end signifies the difficulty of dealing with some people. I often think that people don’t realise how hard it is to get a group together, the commitment that it takes. They seem to forget that aspect, and don’t even start me on the problems inherent in being locked together with four other blokes, in small rooms for days on end, recording, working etc etc, aargh!

Mani on Two Worlds Collide

“I’d say to them don’t build it up too much. It is what it is, it’s not going to revolutionise the world, it’s just a bunch of guys trying to get together and create something. I’d urge people to take it on its merits. If people build it up too much then inevitably some people will be disappointed cos you cant live up to everyone’s expectations.” 
“People should realise we’re not trying to emulate New Order, The Roses, Primal Scream, or The Smiths, we’re just into it for what we do and to have a good time with it.”
