Photo Of Lower Than AtlantisMarc managed to dive into the tour bus for a quick interview with Eddy Thrower and Dec Hart. from Lower Than Atlantis before tonight's gig.

You just realised your new album Changing Tune two days ago, how's it been going down with fans?
Dec: Yeah it's good. Last night was the first night they properly knew the song, I mean there was a couple of song that were out but they properly knew the songs. So yeah very good.

So Southampton was the better night of the tour for you?
Dec: It's only the second day, but it was a bigger room than the night before and me and Eddy are from Southampton so it was pretty cool.

Eddy : Kind of like a home town show for us. A few of my mates where there so that was pretty cool.

What song off the new album do you think goes down best?
Both Love someone else.

Dec: Because we open with that. But then I think P.M.A is going to be the new one.

Eddy: Yeah P.M.A's a good live song.

Is that your favourite off the album?
Dec: Yeah that's one of my favourites.

Was that true when you recorded it around the time of Slam Dunk festival?
Dec: Yeah it was a little bit before then but yeah.

Any songs grown on you from the album?
Dec: I duno I think as we start playing them live I'll start to like them more or less depending on how it goes.
Eddy : Haha yeah I thought you were going to say that

What's been your highlight of the year so far?
Dec: Probably signing to Island Records and selling out or first headline tour. And now we're doing this headline tour and its pretty much all sold out already and we've only done two shows.

So it's going down pretty well. Who are you most excited about playing with on this tour?
Dec: Gnarwolves man. There so sick.

Eddy : Yeah their fucking sick. They just don't give a shit. It's like

Dec: Go on man.

Eddy : Nah. There just so funny man. They just don't care. They just enjoy music.

Dec: It kinda reminds me of how we were in the like fuck you days.

Eddy : Yeah.

Dec: We just didn't give a fuck, like turn up like don't have any strings man.

Eddy : Hahaha

Dec: There just funny. I was like "do you have any t-shirts, can I buy one" and they were like "nah man, but we've got some skate wax" hahaha.

Eddy : Haha

Are you looking forward to any dates in particular?
Dec: London, because that's our biggest ever headline show.

And the last one, a good way to finish off.
Dec :Yeah.

Eddy: Yeah.

Dec: Then We're going to Ireland.

Eddy: WOOOO

Dec: The shows not as big because there's not was many people in Ireland but yeah.

What was your favourite festival that you've done this year?
Eddy : Reading. I've never been to Reading or Leeds before, so I didn't really know what to expect but it was just so good.

It was packed in there.
Dec: Were you there?

Yeah it was rammed out the back and I could barely get in.
Eddy : Yeah it was amazing. It was probably my favourite show of the year.

Dec: It was a landmark in our career. Whatever that means.

that tent was as busy for you as it was for The Subways headlineing the night before.
Eddy : Really?

Eddy : That's ridiculous.

What was it like filming your two new video's compared to the older Deadliest Catch which you did in one of your own houses I'm guessing?
Dec: Yeah and fans sent stuff in. Yeah it was cool.
Eddy : Yeah, it's like the next step up. We've not really experienced it before but it was good. It was pretty fun actually, because we weren't playing. When you play in a video it's kinda tedious because your there all day playing the same fucking song.

Dec: You hate that fucking song. I remember the Beech Like The Tree Video we must have gone though the song in excess of three hundred times, something mental. I was just like "I don't ever want to listen to this fucking song again" haha.

Eddy : Hana

Here at alternative vision we ask everyone this. Would you rather be a Giraffe or a Zebra and why?
Dec: Eddys drum tech actually is a Giraffe haha. So I don't want to be a Giraffe, so I'll say Zebra.

Eddy : Umm

Dec: If you can't think of one agree with me man.

Eddy : Yeah I'll say Zebra.

Have you got a message for your fans?
Dec: Thank you for liking our band, and giving a fuck about us, and buying the stuff that we sell.

Eddy : Thank you for buying our new album, and for those who haven't please do.
