6
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,160
[BEN] We never had these massive
ambitions when we started out at
all.

7
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:24,200
We were just this weird rock
band that were trying to piss
people off.

8
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,120

from anybody.

It's got a lot to do with

[INTERVIEWER] So, cast your mind
back mate.

67
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,520
It's 2019. You're recording 'A
Celebration of Endings' over in
LA.

What are your memories of that
time out in the basking
sunshine of Los Angeles?

It now feels like a long time
ago. 2019 it feels... like a
different mind almost.

00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,240

life was a lot easier.

It feels like a kind of natural
place for us to be.

74
00:05:23,840 --> 00:05:28,120

quite an important part to kind
of go as far away from home,

75
00:05:28,280 --> 00:05:31,640
and feel like we're in a part
of the world where anything is

we literally had just announced
the album was gonna come out in
like May.

115

I think it was May. But it was
like, "This isn't gonna happen."

116
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:52,280
It was physically impossible
to make it happen.

thing that is now

taken away from us.

119
00:07:59,960 --> 00:08:04,760
[SIMON] I really struggled in
the aftermath of not putting it
out.

120
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,440
I suddenly started to think
like, "Is music even important?"

121
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,840
Is anyone gonna want to
stand in a field again?

122
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:14,760
Or a venue to watch music when
we're dealing with so much shit.

123
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:19,360
[JAMES] You're off the hampster
wheel and you're not doing what
it is you love to do,

124
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:23,040
so it was really a kind of a
bit of an existential crisis.

125
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:26,600
What are we doing? What am I
doing? What is life about?

126
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,920
[SIMON] If I don't have
something activating and
engaging my brain

127
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,600
then that's when I kinda start
to go into a spiral.

128
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:39,800
I felt like I was a bike,
gaping wind in my, my mind.

129
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:44,600
Not to be overly dramatic, but
my soul, I just felt, I felt
empty.

130
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,600
Yeah, it was a little dark and

131
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:53,080
had to find something
to focus on basically

132
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,800
becasue if you've got nothing
at the end of the tunnel then

133
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:57,800
its kinda what's the
point type thing.

134
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:01,280
It seems crazy to
sit here and moan about

135
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,720
that sort of thing happening
when I'm lucky enough to be

136
00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:06,280
in this amazing band and
have this amazing life,

137
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:10,640
but, I mean, yeah, it's all
relative. It was hard.

138
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:12,560
As much as its been
really tough,

139
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,040
it's probably reinforced
who we are as a band

140
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:16,840
and as friends more
than ever because

141
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:18,560
actually when you rip
everything else away,

142
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,240
that's what we enjoy. That's
what makes us who we are.

143
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,440
But it was really hard
to rememeber that.

144
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,160
[JAMES] I mean life is often
about compromises.

145
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:28,040
When it comes down
to the choice of

146
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,160
not puttin' the record out at
all because we can't tour

147
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,400
or get the music out there,
people can enjoy it.

148
00:09:34,560 --> 00:09:36,720

release we wanted to do like a

Being here we've kind of
stripped away a lot of the
extraneous things that come

344
00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:53,480
with recording and I think
here it's much simpler.

345
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,480
There's a different
feeling of accomplishment I
think because we've got

346

our hands a little bit dirtier
doing it and there's no
everyday distractions in

really nice

different album man.

cooking with Churd for like,
two months.

[BEN] Yeah, I was jumping
between drum machines and the
stove trying to make dinner.

360
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:55,640
And James is basically, he was
the engineer backing up the
producer, Adam Noble

If there's limitations to it
practically, we'll figure that
out.

come up with the idea and have
the spark

364
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,760

we can make this work.

one walkin up like,

462
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:49,720
"Hey man I've got sideburns I'm
quite obviously legal!" and
then they'd be like,

know people get tattoos of

that's to signify that

[SIMON] Everything we normally
do points towards a live show
you know.

950
00:59:25,640 --> 00:59:28,680
One satisfying aspect is always
when I first hear the songs

951
00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:32,720
come together like wow I still
can't believe it when I hear
things happen like wow!

952
00:59:32,880 --> 00:59:36,400
The conclusion of that is
when we play on the stage.

00:59:37,600 --> 00:59:41,560

important, the highest moment
you get.

you feel you're elevating.

get you to that place.

965

The first outdoor show, so it
feels like quite a lot of
responsibility.

966
01:00:27,680 --> 01:00:30,760
[SIMON] We're less than 20
minutes away from where we'll
play to 35,000 people.

really beautiful

such a questioning period of
time for everyone.

It's happening in our

emotional for us, but for the
fans as well you know

972

that everyone's been cooped up.
Just to get to put a smile on

[SIMON] I can't wait to feel
that sense of joy

975
01:01:04,760 --> 01:01:08,480
and that sense of we're back.
You know we've made it
back here together.

976
01:01:09,040 --> 01:01:11,200

moment.

be a lot of energy.
I really can't wait to feel it.

[BEN] I'm already nervous
thinking about it.

Without a doubt there's going
to be a lot of nerves.

legs. I think I'll be like
