Pseudo Youth

  1. Hi, how are you?
  2. Josh- I'm sound thanks

    Ferg-S'all Gravy

  3. How would you personally describe the band?
  4. Josh- Started off with a sort of 80s hardcore under a different name (the terrorists) but now id say its more hardcore with a bit of screamo thrown in for good measure.

    Ferg - ye we also have two singers now so theres a lot of stuff going on in the sound. its just real fast.

  5. How’d you come up with the name?
  6. Josh- Its a Napalm Death song simple as we couldnt think of a name so we began trawling our cds n records song names for a band name, settled on Pseudo Youth.

    Ferg - yeah we had another bands aswell called Flthy Rich Bastards named after the aus rotten drummer for some reason...so yeah we dont really come up with names we just steal em.

  7. If you were stranded on a desert island (and somehow had a music player available) what is the one album you'd want with you.
  8. Josh - Its got to be Niggas fo life by NWA couldnt take no punk or crust with me cos it'd just make me angry or wanna drink which wouldnt be good on a desert island devoid of cheap polish lager

    Ferg - id have to say that aswell. or something by cap'n jazz ... or carcass either would fit a hot desert island

  9. How has the punk scene changed since you first started? Is it better/worse or just the same?
  10. Josh- well we're all 16 with the exception of Bob whos 22 so we're all too young really to have seen anything change. I'd like to think it will get better for yougner people. You dont see alot of younger people at the punk shows and when you the older punks look down their noses at them, So id like to hope when i've had enough experience to answer this question that will have changed Like to see more woman dancing at shows too. DEATH TO ALPHA MALE MOSHERS

    Ferg - yeah more clit in the pit! also we were like 12-13 or sumthin stupid like that when we started going to shows so it hasnt changed much for me. still the same shit bands and shit people but were one of the shit bands now so we cant complain much i guess.

  11. Whats your favourite song to play live/favourite place to play live?
  12. Josh- atm i have not played anywhere that i have many positive things to say about so il keep stuhm. Why pay 60 quid to rent out a venue that smells of piss tho when you can play a gig for free in your own home. Bring abck the house gigs.

    Ferg - yeah id much rather play a house or basement then any venue especially if that venue is also a pub cuz all their concerned about is the bar profit. there is some venues that i really like that i would like to play in,like the 1in12 or chameleon arts cafe

  13. Tell the readers five facts about the band / band members they will not already know
  14. Ferg - you probably know fuck all about us anyway

    (smash-it-up - fair enough!)

  15. You're invisible for a day...what do you do?
  16. Josh- I'd like to think we'd do some good, liberate some animals from labs and give them loving homes, steal shit loads of money and distribute through peoples letter boxes in poorer areas. But to be honest i think we'd just walk around naked and steal drugs n booze

    Ferg - steal tofu and crack sadly.

  17. Plans, gigs and releases for the rest of 2008?
  18. Josh - To play every corner of this island, We have a demo on its way when we get round to recording its gonna be a 4 or 5 track disc in some shitty homemade sleeve. Will be sold on doantion basis where by you pay whatever you think its worth aslogn as its above 50p and all money made is going to ALF prisoner support so if your ever at any of our gigs pick one up even if you dont like the music cos its goin to a good cause.

  19. Any extra comments?
  20. Ferg - were playing burton on the 31st of may and lecister some time in the future...i dont kow when but im guessing its soon.

    .....uhhhhh.......up the punx
