Interviews: WRTHLESS

In this new occassion we have had the opportunity to interview  the Pop Punk band WRTHLESS from UK. Check out the interview and this band on their FACEBOOK PAGE.

1. Where did you get the idea for the band name, you planned it or came out just like that?  

We knew we wanted to hop on the whole, SWMRS, WSTR type vibes with the capital letters and missing vowels and such. One day we were sitting in the car, and ‘Worthless’ by Better Days came on.  That’s pretty much it. 

2. Why did you want to play this genre?  

Because it’s fun. We’re all aware it’s not the coolest or most relevant genre anymore. But we all love it. There’s something super infectious and pure about it. 

3. Did you know each other before the band was formed?  

Jordan and me knew each other when they were wee guys and used to play football together. Then me and Jonny met through Jordan as they went to college together. Jamie and me were pals aswell, so it was pretty easy as we all kinda knew each other. 

4. Each band member favourite band?  

Jonny’s is Blink 182. Jamie’s is Modern Baseball. Stuart’s is The Gaslight Anthem. Jordan’s is The Story So Far. 

5. Who or what inspires you to write songs?  

General experiences in life. We’re not super into writing about particularly personal stuff, but we write a lot about what we observe in other people’s life’s. 

6. Where was your last gig?  

The last time we played was with three outstanding bands called Altered Sky, Take Today and Fear me December in Nice N Sleazys in Glasgow. It was a banger.

7. Where would you like to act?  

(assuming this means play and not act) We really want to just get out and play in as many places as possible. Personally I want to head to London. Wouldn’t mind hitting up some of the more northern parts of Scotland. 

8. Whom would you like to feature with?  

(Again we’re thinking this means like a song feature) Steve Aoki. Call us.

9. Any of you has ever suffered from stage fright? Any tip for beginners on how to beat that?  

Maybe a bit at the start. We’ve starting getting hyped up before we go on now which has helped massively. Apart from that just jump in at the deep and end try not to care about what other folk are thinking.

10. What bands have inspired you the most?  

A lot of bands we play with inspire us and help us a lot. Obviously we take musical inspiration from our favourite bands, but bands like Better Days have helped us a lot. Bands like The Decline and Carousel Kings just for their pure work ethnic. Being out and actually touring the world and doing it. 

11. What's the weirdest thing a fan has ever asked you for?  

Nothing to strange. We find it heavy weird when people just ask for photos and stuff in general. It’s difficult to comprehend because we’re just a bunch of wee guys from Scotland, so aye that’s quite weird for us.
