An acoustic session video with interviews and stuff.

[Mike]

Excellent stuff. This band rules hard.

[Lally]

Is that the singer from SYB towards the end?

[Mike]

I think so. SYB are credited at the end for backing vocals.

[Lally]

Oh I see, I didn't watch the credits

[Sean-Lugsy]

That was pretty good.

[John]

[Carpo]

[Fry]

Right for a zip up and vinyl each its like 111 dollars. 70 euro. 35 each sound cool?

this is most good with me, thanks a mill dude!

[Carpo]

No probs brah.

[Ronan]

Got a purple 7" ordered. Hyuss.

[GOC]

I wish I'd listened to this album before they played here. It makes me happy when I'm sad and I spend the rest of that day telling people about what their songs are about and how good they are.

I GOT THESE FRIENDS WHO HATE THEIR FUCKING LIVES,
I GUESS THAT'S WHAT INACTIVITY DOES TO THE MIND,
SO I STAY BUSY DAY AND NIGHT,
I DON'T HAVE TIME TO COMPLAIN.

[xMac Kellx]

Mac Kell, do you still have that red TWY shirt?
Probably, yeah.

[Emmie!]

consider her dead.

:petrified

I'm gonna preorder a purple now, yay! :)

[Bryan]

Just ordered the orange vinyl. Can't wait to spin that shit.

[Gajb]

How much is shipping costing everyone? Mine is saying $10.75 for one vinyl alone!

[Bryan]

Yeah I had that as well. Vinyl is pretty delicate.

[Gajb]

Fuck. I thought I done something wrong. Thats way too much. It goes up to 16 for the pack of 3.

[Mike]

Probably, yeah.

Tenner was the agreed price, yah?

[xMac Kellx]

Yeah.

[Soupy]

Down to like 15 purple copies left. Also, if you're looking for merch, check out the brand new long sleeves and girl's underwear!

http://www.solidmerchandising.com/thewonderyears/index.html

[xMac Kellx]

Ordering the Longsleeve.

CALLED IT!

[Smithners]

Dibs on the underwear then.........

[Mike]

Yeah.

Bring it to the Downhill EP Launch and i'll give you $$$s.

[xMac Kellx]

I thought I already gave it to you to be honest.

[Mike]

I'd forgotten about it too, don't worry.

Actually, i'll grab it off you at the April 12th show if that's cool.

[Mike]

[Gajb]

Can you buy the old stuff before Get Stoked On It!?

[Mike]

The Bangarang!/TWY split is out of print, i think.

[Gajb]

Download?

[anotherandrew]

Not the same.

[Sos]

If it's out of print it's not a big deal to download it, like.

[anotherandrew]

True.

It's just nicer to have it fo real.

[Gajb]

If it's out of print it's not a big deal to download it, like.

[xGlennx]

http://www.ellipsis.jonvandine.net/STORES/BANGARANG!store.htm

[SignificanceBoy]

just checked these guys out on myspace, downloading the album now, lovely stuff.

[Mike]

Then you can buy it when they come over again.

[Gajb]

Someone should put the album out on vinyl.

[xGavx]

I'll do it.

[Soupy]

The only way to get the purple now is to order one of the last 8 multi-packs. After that, start looking on ebay. Check into the blog. Some shit might be funny. The split isnt available through us anymore. We sold all of our copies long ago, but Bangarang still has them if you want a physical copy. I'm going to get Chris to host it online soon so you can download our tracks at least.

[Wez-o!]

FUCKING AWESOME!

[Mike]

FUCKING AWESOME!

[Gajb]

Deadly. Can't wait.
I'm having problems with the No Sleep website trying to order the triple vinyl set. Hope MerchDirect get back to me asap before they're gone.

[knockmark]

u legend soupy :)

[Soupy]

Talked to our label about it. We have 7 packages left of the three vinyls. Once those 7 sell, the split goes up for free download. Buy it up!

[Mike]

Did yez have to clear it with Bangarang! or anything?

[Soupy]

We're only upping our side.

[Mike]

Oh, right.

edit: that wasn't meant to sound harsh or anything. Can't wait for this.

Is there a recording of that acoustic version of When Keeping It Real Goes Wrong that yez did in Wales?

[Soupy]

http://nosleeprecs.com/twysplit/

[Wez-o!]

I love you Soupy.

[ianthefox]

Easy, Wez.

Sound stuff.

[Gajb]

Cheers Soupy!

[Enderrr]

I absolutely love this band.

[Fry]

downloading that meow! cheers Soupy!

[Mike]

There's no way this band can be backed any harder.


Yo Soupy, I keep meaning to ask. Who's the chick at the end of I Fell In Love With A Ninja Master?

[Sean-Lugsy]

Oh yeah, I was meant to try find that out too...

"To fuck you uuuuuuup!"

Sound band.

[GOC]

Mike wants to play Closer to her to see if he gets laid.

[Mike]

:yummy:

[Soupy]

The "to fuck you up line" is in Zombies. The girl is Rachel from Zolof the Rock and Roll Destroyer.

The woman talking at the end of Ninjas is a sample we pulled off of this cable dating show called Dating on Demand. It's like video personal ads. Best shit.

[Mike]

Hahaha, found it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_UvldlxwPJM

[Sos]

AHAHAHAHAHA.

[ianthefox]

Haha, she's a total legend.

[GOC]

HAHAHAHAH THAT'S SO WEIRD!

Anyone else have a totally different image of that chick in your head?

[Fry]

OH.MY.GOD

i think i'm in love

[charizard]

Cant stop listening to this band.

[Soupy]

We post in this like daily http://wontbepatheticforever.blogspot.com

[Soupy]

Another new track is up called 'Solo & Chewy: Holdin' it Down' on absolutepunk.net

[Wez-o!]

http://acct.tamu.edu/smith/starwars/Chewbacca_w_Han_Solo_ANH.jpg

Im rushing home to listen to this.

[Iano]

That song is so good!!!!

[Carpo]

This is class.

"I think that girl just saw your dick" ahahaha.

[charizard]

That is such a tune. This band are just plain fucking awesome.

[ralphatron]

This is really good, annoyed I missed out on the 7". I'll get it on CD.

[Soupy]

Its not coming out on CD and you didnt miss out on the 7 inch. If you order it on interpunk now, in fact, you get a free hoodie.

[ralphatron]

Aw delish. Thanks a lot.

[xGavx]

This is really good, annoyed I missed out on the 7". I'll get it on MiniDisc.

[Soupy]

Minidisk release comes with a special Wonder Years beanie baby.

[Sos]

Song is class, well done.

[Mike]

This fucking rules. Already the anthem of my Summer '08.

[Gajb]

"Is that what the last song on Clarity is about?"

Love the J.E.W. reference. Excellent.

[Mike]

What part is that in?

edit: holy shit, just heard it. Just when I thought this band couldn't be any more awesome.

[Gajb]

Mike, some JEW fan you are!

[hannah]

This song is so good! Can't stop listening to it.

[Reuben]

This band have such great lyrics.

[Wez-o!]

This song rules!

[Mike]

Mike, some JEW fan you are!

I only heard once by then, you whore.

Soupy, post lyrics.

[charizard]

Fuck, I think ive listened to that new tune about twenty imes already today. Their lyrics really are outstanding and so original.

[Soupy]

I dont have the lyrics off hand but I'm also bored so Im going to type them. Please excuse grammatical errors due to the haste.

Been tryin to think about anything but this and how we're missing town, missing out, the exit's on this strip. I've been wondering how or if we'll ever get to sleep because we're 16 hours in. This ride from Eric's house has been fucking up my shit because we stayed to watch the week's new Office, now it's 12 am. In the dirty south, you know we must be bored of this because we're stealing from gas stations and talking about how Arizona's airport is called Sky Harbor. I wonder if that's what the last song on Clarity's about. We're saying it loud: Get to the Falcon. Its 3 am and we're delirious cheating on the Atlantic. talking about pawning all our shit, buying wave runners and becoming pirates. We're a part of this. We've been falling apart, like Richie's got a brand new stretch mark. Night drives start at Waffle House and end at Wal-Mart. BReaking hearts of waitresses in seedy truck-stops, cause Steve's shirtless pounding beers in the parking lot. If this is our time, the Denver skyline is telling me to make up my god damn mind.

[Carpo]

Thanks Soupy. This is fucking amazing. Never fails to brighten up bad days.

[Sos]

HOW THE FUCKING BEJAYSUS WERE YOU HAVING A BAD DAY TODAY.

[Enderrr]

Amazing.

[Wez-o!]

Love The Office.

[xCiaránx]

That's a good tune. The vocals in the pre-chorus bits sound really ropey though (Arizona's airport... and Taking naked pictures...). What's going on there?

[Gajb]

I only heard once by then, you whore.


Harsh.

[Mike]

That's a good tune. The vocals in the pre-chorus bits sound really ropey though (Arizona's airport... and Taking naked pictures...). What's going on there?

I love those parts. Like the second "My friends and I..." in 'You're Not Salinger...'

[Soupy]

That's a good tune. The vocals in the pre-chorus bits sound really ropey though (Arizona's airport... and Taking naked pictures...). What's going on there?

Those parts are sung by our keyboardist Mikey. He actually has my favorite voice in the band. I prefer when he sings to when I sing haha.

[charizard]

Think he sounds awesome, great screamer as well.

[Ste]

http://nosleeprecs.com/twysplit/

Cheers for the songs Soupy, love this band at the minute. Can't get enough

[Mike]

GET TO THE FALCON!

[Ste]

Know anywhere I can get it? I checked a few shops but they didnt even have a section, which I thought might be because there on an indie label.

[xGavx]

They're only a tiny band like. You'd have to order their CDs on the internet.

[xGlennx]

Ste I saw a copy in my local Tesco. Check there.

[Ste]

Would have never thought of there, i'll be making a trip to Tesco tomorrow.

[xGavx]

I'm going to ask my mam to pick me up a copy when she's doing the shopping.

[Iano]

i hope superquinn have it

[Mike]

Tell her to pick me up a Nothing Gold Can Stay test press. It's next to the Weetabix.

[ralphatron]

Hahahaha.

[Ste]

Gonna get some cereal aswell, what a combo

[xGlennx]

I really want to know if you were serious when you said you were going to check Tesco, Ste.

[Robbie Control]

i hope superquinn have it

Haha.

That was hilarious, Ste.

[ianthefox]

Regardless of what he says, he was.

[Gajb]

I really want to know if you were serious when you said you were going to check Tesco, Ste.

[Ronan]

When is that purple vinyl likely to be posted to people who ordered? I ordered it aaages ago thinking it was already released, lol :\

[Ste]

I really want to know if you were serious when you said you were going to check Tesco, Ste.

Ha I would have eventually for closure just cause Glenn's never steered me wrong in the past

[Mike]

You dick, Glenn.

[Soupy]

Check out the new interview on ap: http://www.absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?t=318583

[Bryan]

Aw man, I'll read that when it's not half one in the morning.

[Mike]

Touch his balls, Bryan.

[Bryan]

What!?

[Ronan]

Hah, that's got to be a completely different Chris Hansen. But the bit in that interview makes me wonder...

[Bryan]

Got my pre order just there. Too bad my speakers are fucked. Looks class anyway, I'll get the download later.[/posi feedback]

[Ronan]

Got my pre order today aswell. It rules. Irish scene gets a mention in the notes too :)

[Mike]

Really? Post detes.

[Gajb]

Post mp3's.

[ralphatron]

Really? Post detes.

[Ronan]

I can't remember it word for word and the notes are downstairs... It says something like: it's cool that we found there was a scene in Ireland with sound lads who drove us from the airport and let us stay in their gaff/s.

[Mike]

Awesome.

And buy the EP, Gajb.

[ralphatron]

Haha, that's class.

[iheartciaránparnell4eva]

That's nice!

[Gajb]

And buy the EP, Gajb.

I went to buy the 3 pack of them when it was on-sale but the No Sleep merch company kept denying the credit card numerous times so I emailed them, got a reply, tried that - didn't work. Emailed them, they never replied. Bastards. I wanted all three colours.

Thats amazing that they said gaff's.

[Mike]

I went to buy the 3 pack of them when it was on-sale but the No Sleep merch company kept denying the credit card numerous times so I emailed them, got a reply, tried that - didn't work. Emailed them, they never replied. Bastards. I wanted all three colours.

That sucks. With any luck there'll be some floating around when they come back...

[Gajb]

I hope so. Subtle input there asking for them to come back.

[Ronan]

Thats amazing that they said gaff's.
Haha no they didn't.
I can't remember it word for word...

[Gajb]

I need to read things more more accurately.

[Ste]

Have to get my hands on one of these soon.

[Ronan]

This RECORD sounds so shitty on my player, haha. Maybe it's my player, though. Enjoying the downloaded tracks anyway.

[Sos]

Post mp3's.
MP3 IS.

[xGavx]

Try your local Centra, Ste.

[xGlennx]

Haha.

[Fry]

hey Carpo any word on that Wonder Years stuff?

[Gajb]

Any words on MP3 IS here?

[Carpo]

Yo Fry, I never ordered them because i was broke ha. Im still ordering a zip up tomorrow night if you want in?

[xMac Kellx]

I fucking called the zip up.

[Carpo]

hahaha.

[Fry]

naw that's cool man, i'm totally broke now too! haha

[Mike]

I will buy that shirt off you Mac Kell, some day.

[xMac Kellx]

I don't think I know where it is anymore. I'll have to go searching.

[Gajb]

Just found a download to the new EP. Going to give a listen now.

[anotherandrew]

The new EP is class. "Solo and Chewy: Holdin' It" Down is the best tune.

[Ste]

Just found a download to the new EP. Going to give a listen now.

Where did you find the download?

[Mike]

It comes with the EP i think.

[Gajb]

Not exactly how I got it but yea, it does.

[Smithners]

The EP is the best thing ever!

[Gajb]

Actually.

[anotherandrew]

I FUCKING LOVE THIS TOWN!!!!

[Mike]

http://a842.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/107/l_bae9e7da8f6d0772e246fe82676cd0c1.jpg

[xGlennx]

Did First Death even play that gig with them?

[Bryan]

The download code I got with my ep didn't work. I'd be pissed but I don't think it's that great. It looks class though.

[xGavx]

Did First Death even play that gig with them?
Nah, that was the only show in the last year we haven't played. I've no idea where he got that shirt because I thought we threw them all out six months before they were here.

[xGlennx]

I hear he found a bunch of them in a skip near Rory's.

[ralphatron]

That's so cool.

[Alex]

Whats a good thing to start with for this band?

[xGlennx]

Whatever they did first...

[Alex]

Thanks Glenn!

[James]

Soupy's a teacher. That's mad.

[Gajb]

Start with Get Stoked On It! Alex. Then the new EP.
I never got one of those tee's.
Class though.

[Alex]

I would have bought that First Death shirt if I had known it came in black, I just don't like grey tshirts.

[Iano]

The download code I got with my ep didn't work. I'd be pissed but I don't think it's that great. It looks class though.

i think its so good!! i listen to it at least once a day. it didn't work for me either but then i realized that you have to put in the spaces before and after the -

[Smithners]

Yeah, that happened to me with the spaces as well!
I can't get enough of this EP!

[charizard]

E.P is so good. Cant get enough of it.

[punkypopper]

Mad pissed i missed these guys aswell :(

Savage Band!!

[Wez-o!]

Im really kicking myself that I missed these guys when they were over. They fucking rule and the album cheers me up no matter what.

[Mike]

Fantastic band with fantastic dudes. Cannot back harder.

[xrobbedgex]

You're only saying that because you want to be mistaken for Soupy and have people say that they hear you're sound.

[xGavx]

He's only saying that because Soupy will see it.

[Mike]

You're only saying that because you want to be mistaken for Soupy and have people say that they hear you're sound.

:smug:

Have you seen me lately? The only thing I'm getting mistaken for is a insomnia-suffering Chernobyl victim.

[Wez-o!]

Mike is class.

[Mike]

Class like Soupy.

[Bryan]

I wish I liked the 7inch more because it looks so fucking good.

[Gajb]

I still need to get one.
I thought the bump was to do with them coming over again, but alas no.

[Gajb]

I got the brown vinyl today. The little bit about Ireland the picture of Wicklow Street I think down near the bottom is class.

[Soupy]

Bryan dude, sorry. You're going to hate the next full length then because we're writing songs like the EP. And yea, there are a few pictures from Ireland, including one I took from stage.

[James]

When are you expecting to release the next full length? I prefered the EP over the album anyway, so this is good news.

[ralphatron]

Yeah the EP is def better.

[Gajb]

Its class alright. The vinyl is put together so well. More bands should do that. 52/200 Brown.

[Soupy]

Theres a record release version on ebay right now. Ends in a few hours. I'm accidentally the high bidder at 3 dollars which is like 1.75 euro. It's purple out of 30. Get on it.

Ireland almost single-handedly reignited my faith in punk rock as a whole. New full length out next summer. Hopefully a new split 7 out this winter. New Euro tour including hopefully two Irish dates late summer.

[Ronan]

Sweet, can't wait.

[Gajb]

Thats class, do more Irish dates next time. I'm bidding.

[Soupy]

Hope you win it duder. If we do the split 7 this winter, I've got big plans for limited edition versions galore. We'll also probably do a Euro press of both for next summer. Something limited to like 50 or 100.

[Sean-Lugsy]

Bring Balance and Composure with you. I haven't stopped listening to the EP since you uploaded it.

[Soupy]

SHHHH!!! that wasn't me....


But for real, band rules!

[Wez-o!]

Dammit. I hate not being online when Soupy posts. I need more Wonder Years in my life.

[Carpo]

This will rule. Love this band too much. Fuck yeah.

[Gajb]

The release gig vinyl ended up going for $55.
