Spring 2017 have to be there all the time .
Lizzy - I always have to be the exact opposite to what people want , so when people tell me make an album I ' m like ... no I ' m not going to make an album , haha we ' ll see .
Rockfiend - You ' ll do it when you ' re ready . Lizzy - Yeah . Kristian - When the time is right .
Mats - The songs are there , we have good material .
Lizzy - The thing is the songs we write always get better and better , I don ' t want to stress it out .
Mats - We can ' t rush it , we rewrite songs so many times .
Lizzy - It ' s pointless just stressing out an album , putting out three good songs and seven half assed , I don ' t want to do that .
Mats - We could ' ve done an album from the start writing half assed songs . We want an album that ' s going to be an appetite for destruction .
Rockfiend - It ' s going to be up there and stay up there . Lizzy - It ' s going to be an album I really care about . Mats - Yeah , we all care about .
Lizzy - I really don ' t care about what other people think , if they like it it ' s fucking awesome ! But this time around doing things , I ' m doing it for me and not for somebody else . And people seem to like what we are doing , it ' s a great fucking bonus !
Rockfiend - The record business you know .... the music business has gone , there ' s nobody interested , all it is making money and passing it on to the next thing , when you ' ve got passionate bands like yourselves that want to make it for music for fans and for themselves , do it ! Why not !
Lizzy - And that ' s why , I think this band is fun to be in , it was started for fun you know .
Mats - We ' ve had a lot of fun since we started .
Lizzy - You always want more that ' s the problem , it ' s a dangerous fucking business .

Rockfiend - Did you have to finance the tour yourselves ? Obviously it ' s just the two dates .
Lizzy - We basically did but try to break even , sometimes we hardly make anything after .
Mats - We try to make ends meet . Lizzy - As long as we don ' t lose too much money .
Mats - If there ' s a gig worth doing we try to maybe get one before and one day after . Raz White booked us here and he said do you want to do Bannermans , and you can have some cash for that and then you can come here . So of course we are here , so why not . That ' s what I try to do when I go to tours , make ends meet , we don ' t necessarily do it for the money because there ain ' t no money in it .
Rockfiend - The thing is you have still got to live and make money .... once the big time comes in .
Mats - If it comes it comes .
Lizzy - It was a lot easier when I was in my twenties , I had nothing to worry about back then , but now I ' m a bit older you gotta work to make money as well , that ' s something to take into consideration .
Mats - It ' s still a privilege to do this .
Lizzy - Yeah , it ' s a great privilege , we are lucky bastards ! Mats - To travel and to play for people that like the music and travel to see us , and that ' s amazing .
Rockfiend - It was just two dates , the Edinburgh show and this one ? Lizzy - Yeah , It ' s always fun to just try it out .
Rockfiend - Do you have any plans to come back to the UK ?
Lizzy - We would love to , hopefully when it gets a little bit warmer .
Rockfiend - Anything we can do to promote or help in any way we will do .
Lizzy - Ah great thinking , thank you . Mats - Much appreciated . Rockfiend - I ' ve just recently moved up near Aberdeen , which is

have to be there all the time. ously it's just the two dates.
Lizzy - I always have to be the exact opposite to what people
want, so when people tell me make an album I'm like...no I'm not
going to make an album, haha we'll see. Lizzy - We basically did but try to break even, sometimes we
hardly make anything after.
Rockfiend - You'll do it when you're ready.
Lizzy - Yeah. Kristian - When the time is right.
Mats - We try to make ends meet.
Lizzy - As long as we don't lose too much money.
Mats - If there's a gig worth
doing we try to maybe get
one before and one day
after. Raz White booked
us here and he said do you
want to do Bannermans,
and you can have some
cash for that and then
you can come here. So
of course we are here, so
why not. That's what I try
to do when I go to tours,
make ends meet, we don't
necessarily do it for the
money because there ain't
no money in it.
Mats - The songs are
there, we have good
material.
Lizzy - The thing is the
songs we write always
get better and better,
I don't want to stress
it out.
Mats - We can't rush
it, we rewrite songs so
many times.
Lizzy - It's pointless
just stressing out an al-
bum, putting out three
good songs and seven half assed, I don't want to do that.
Mats - We could've done an album from the start writing half
assed songs. We want an album that's going to be an appetite for
destruction.
Rockfiend - The thing is
you have still got to live and make money....once the big time
comes in.
