Speaking with the bestest artists of today about their goings on and private matters you all want to know about.
Emily Haines of Metric
"It illuminates the nature of what we are looking for as people from our artists in 2009 which is someone you can feel superior to and ultimately, you know, have as a clown for your entertainment. It's not as though we are looking to our musicians and artists, it seems, for inspiration."
Rou Reynolds of Enter Shikari
"Who needs good food when you have good beer and cider? How would you define English food? It's just a culmination of other cultures food really... oh no we have Trifle! Come on! Trifle rules."
Robert McDowell of Manchester Orchestra
"Good. I hate them but there are people who enjoy the atmosphere and the availability of bands. We have had a lot of good exposure through them and I have heard of loads of bands because of festivals. I would still rather see a band in a club or theater, but I see the appeal."
Jaret Reddick of Bowling for Soup
"You know, it was something we had wanted to do for years, but we just happened upon the right time with the label and the stars aligned. It was great to be able to film it in Manchester where the crowds are always SO amazing. "
