He stated: “Even Blink reforming with their authentic lineup, that’s a large factor for a complete era of children. I’ve seen Blink with Matt Skiba. That ain’t Blink-182. Interval. It doesn’t matter the way you costume it up. I’m not saying he’s not an incredible guitar participant or singer or songwriter, however that’s not the Blink-182 that I fell in love with. Or having My Chemical Romance come again, having Paramore come again from a hiatus or no matter – it’s a approach of constructing individuals really feel rather less directionless and have a bit extra objective.”
He added: “What number of followers of other music walked away from it to simply be like, ‘F*** it, I’ll take heed to Kendrick Lamar then as a result of no one’s even bothering making the music I actually like that a lot anymore?’ And if they’re, they’re doing a extremely dangerous job of it.”
You Me At Six went again to their roots for his or her newest LP ‘Fact Decay’, which Josh describes as a “homecoming”.
He advised MusicFeeds.com.au: “I believe it was actually essential on this album that everyone felt like this was their album. I’m unsure if we have been all sincere with ourselves that the final two [2021’s ‘Suckapunch’ and 2018’s ‘VI’] have felt that approach. And so I believe that’s what makes You Me At Six, You Me At Six – all 5 of us not solely actually writing and enjoying collectively, however all in the identical headspace, and that’s when issues can occur actually rapidly.
“This was type of a homecoming for You Me At Six and that’s been actually nice to see.”
