  • "It was a little crazy. We didn’t know he’d be there and we’d just finished playing when he showed up. Everyone was sort of swarming around him and we were ushered into the frame for some photographs. We talked about how The Beatles had played on the Apple building famously in the 60s. We talked about this being our Beatles moment." (en)
  • "I think there’s still some kind of impact from them, even if these things haven’t been in your life. I do kind of worry about that, I wouldn’t like to be reduced to a lister of colloquialisms or anything. In ‘The Great Defector’ when we talk about the end of the Cornetto, which is a distinctly Anglo-Irish ice-cream treat - although they do them in Europe I’m told - I think it’s just a wacky enough allusion for an American to enjoy." (en)
  • "We did about forty gigs on the tour and we had to listen back to them all. We didn't want it to be just one gig because you feel the pressure of it. We tried to capture most of the gigs on that tour and pick out the best bits. Plus it was pretty warts and all. People had been asking if we had any recording of the songs done the acoustic way and eventually on one tour we recorded the gigs. In ways without doing a best of, it's the closest we've come." (en)
  • "Yeah, that was a very different thing, very pressured. We had to make sure it went well on the night in a venue we grew up seeing bands in. It was full tilt, all bells and whistles and lots of production." (en)
  • "With the five piece band there is no imagining the parts,” explains Dave. “We can realise all the parts at once, it’s the only way to get the full picture when recording. There’s no more imagining sounds and parts that have yet to be recorded." (en)
  • "It was a new way of doing things and we were excited by that. We brought nothing with us except a couple of guitars. Peter and Thomas got involved in turning a longlist of songs into a shortlist. And Thomas gets stuff done – we named the album in honour of his work tempo." (en)
  • "It was the most difficult album we’ve made” admits singer Noonan. “There was a touch of "What the Jaysus do we do now?!, and it led to a lot of soul searching about what kind of band we are, what we have to say, what is the core, the soul of the band. It took a while to find that voice on this record. We needed to unlearn a few things." (en)
  • "With this album I went away and wrote a lot of the songs by myself, with a computer, and software synths and beats and stuff, before bringing it to the band. Dave and I worked a lot together too. We had this singular idea before making the effort that we would take a song that we had the backbone of, and then dress it up with noises and beats and stuff, and we’d never really done that before. That worked in some cases, but it sounded really gratuitous in others, so we peeled it back. Which is why we have something of a mongrel on our hands again." (en)
  • "Thematically, the notion of Arms comes from a few things. The main one, I think, is sort of: as the world feels like it's becoming a harsher, scarier, less compassionate place we need to feel the embrace of those around us and to offer that embrace. That sounds maybe like a little twee thing to say, but given what happened a couple of days ago it feels all the more so." (en)
