The Punk Archive: Did you enjoy playing Undercover last year?
Stu: Yes, we had an awesome time last year. Mick Moriarty and all the crew there are great, really look after the bands and work hard to put on a cool festival. There was a really nice vibe to the weekend and everyone there was having a great time.
The Punk Archive: Are you excited to be back in 2014?Stu: For sure! Undercover is a cool festival with a real diverse line up, there's something for everyone's taste there. We're really looking forward to playing the new material and seeing how it goes down.
The Punk Archive: Who are you looking forward to seeing on the line-up?
Stu: Gentleman's Dub Club are closing the Friday and they are a must see! Over the weekend there are loads of cool bands to check out: The Dualers, Meow Meows and Goldblade being just a few. The line up is awesome!
The Punk Archive: How has your summer been? Any highlights?
Stu: This summer has been wicked! We've released a new EP, toured with our friends in The Slackers and played some great festivals. A definite highlight was Boomtown, the crowd we played to were crazy! Nozstock was also a highlight. We've played there a few times now and it's always fun!
The Punk Archive: How has reception been to the new EP?Stu: It has been really positive! We've had some good reviews and the reaction to the new material live has been great, so we're pretty happy!
The Punk Archive: Can you give us any insights into the new album?
Stu: We're writing and demoing at the moment, and are hoping to get into the studio after we go on tour with The Aggrolites in October. We're really excited about the new tunes. I think the Pull Up & Rewind EP was a good indicator of what to expect. It still sounds like us but its a bit more grown up… hopefully everyone will be feeling it when it arrives!
