That's right. More interviews.
quote: ...the problem with most bands today is that their first album is really strong because they’ve had their whole life to make it and it’s really good and comes the second album they’ve run out of things to say.
Dandi: Quite often with bands when you hear the first album does really well and they spend a long time promoting it and suddenly they’re pushed into the studio with no songs and they’re forced to write it really quickly, and maybe their personalities have changed too because of their success or whatever they haven’t had that much time to think about the songs because that’s actually really hard to do when you’re on tour.
Szam: Some people can do it but we really can’t. It’s hard to find personal inspirations. I mean we find all kinds of things when we’re touring actually but it’s just hard to just write songs, taking ideas and noting them down and then later make them into something song-worthy.

Re: SUPERSWEET
More people should consider that... But they do make a good point - it's gotten too expensive for some to produce more than one album in a year, when they make this huge project out of it all, and the fact that most people don't have much to say after the first album.
Which is a bit disappointing because then that means a lot of bands are just turning out more and more trite albums because they want the money.

Re: SUPERSWEET
too true
but my dad always said the same thing about having your whole life to write your first album and then not having much for your second, i mean he wasnt the writer in his band but he knew how hard it was
but you know bands could always release ep's in between albums...that's a thought

Re: SUPERSWEET
EPs, bootlegs, "mini-albums." Stuff like that. I mean, you can't just release an album and think "I've got to wait till the next time I'm in an studio to write a song."

Re: SUPERSWEET
yeah exactly
but labels are a bit corrupt these days and it sucks, even a lot of the indie labels now are messed up

Re: SUPERSWEET
Blegh. **** labels... That's why I'm a bit excited at a lot of bands producing their own stuff or starting their own labels.
