The likes of James Brown, Chic, and the one album that was passed around a lot was Cannibalism by CAN. Which albums were you listening to when you were trying to find your sound back in ‘96? The thing is with the punk band, I wasn’t listening to music like that, so why would I want to play the music I’m not listening to? I was in a punk group originally, but we were all into 70s soul and stuff like that, so we had kind of a different thing going on and we would cover James Brown tunes. I thought it was all a little out of my reach, so it was like let’s play songs like this but try and get lost in it and try and make our own sound. One of the main things was, I was on tour with a disco covers group touring with Mario’s (Andreoni, guitarist) post-punk group, and it was just a random accident that we kept playing together every night.Įveryone was responding to the disco music so well and it was so fun to play, and when I was playing guitar, I didn’t realise I could play music like that. When many bands start there’s a bunch of rivers leading to that ocean, there was a lot of things that were happening. For anyone in the UK that may not be familiar with your history, how did the band get started?
