Q. So guys, you've just released two new singles. What are your plans for the future?

Deen- Obviously my immediate plans are to get very drunk once this interview is over and to shoot up later tonight, although as a band our intentions are to continue working on new material and release maybe a couple more singles before we unleash an album on all you F**kers.
Angel- Yeah, you said it man, we've matured now since "The trip of a lifetime", this time around we're about music, life and stuff like that. This new album is going to rock, no I'm serious, get ready to rock man.

Q. Er, okay Angel. Scolerskimbal, your new single "I deserve to die" may well be responsible for multiple teenage deaths where suicide notes written by youths, who later hung themselves, quoted your song heavily. How do you feel about all this?

Scolerskimbal- To tell you the truth, thinking about stuff does my head in and this is no exception, I mean, who gives a s**t man? So sixteen kids are dead, like that matters. There are plenty more kids out there, we just managed to wean out a couple of the ones that wanted to hang themselves. And at least they must've liked my song.
Deen- Yeah, give us a break man. What it boils down to is some people take music very seriously, perhaps too seriously. Dickheads.

Q. Okay, that was all very PC there. The killer, Ronald Reagan, a good, if unsuccessful single. What inspired you and, if you don't mind my asking, are you gay?

The killer- Good question. The answer to whether I'm gay or not is no - but as I'm sure the rest of the band will back me up on, there is one time when an exception can be made. Ronald is just such a guy.
Rest of band- F**king right.
The killer- I mean, its like, have you ever seen "The killers" man? What a film. The way that poor guy dies at the end. "I haven't got the damn time." and he f**king blows her away. Oh yeah. Ron was just great in that, he just looked so great. I wrote this song so we would all have something to relate to him by.

Q. Any hints then about what songs might be making it onto the new album or even out as singles.

Deen- There's a few, but we're still developing most of our material.
The killer- I've just finished "Get up", thats a certainty for the next album.
Scolerskimbal- Yeah, "Tanzania", my blues song, should make it too and I'm really excited by one of my recently remixed songs "Queen mother". I have had e-fucking-nough of hearing about her on TV and I feel my song demonstrates that. And it rocks.
