Aaron Interview in Local Music Magazine (Little bit of new album)

Aw. I like their songs about being in a band, but I do agree that it's getting old. I just hope that doesn't lead to another over-saturation of songs about bad relationships that he joked about. I mean, I'm all for those types of songs too, but when there's an album full of them, you get Cheer Up!.

Good interview – nice to know they're thinking about getting started on something new, even if we will have to wait until the end of the year for it.
And haha if I was Aaron I'da been a bit irked by him getting FFF wrong.

If there's a chance this could be like Cheer Up, I would like Aaron to take that chance.

Less stuff about being in a band, and high school drinking songs, please. 😉

Good interview. Bad relationships are always a good subject to write about.

So now you want Monkeys for Nothin' Part 2: Everybody's Drunker?

Well, people always do say less is more.

But I don't think that's what he meant.

I meant less of both.

Lyrics like Brand New Hero, Cheer Up!, Cannibal, Slow Down, Bang! The Mouse Explodes, The Joke's On Me, When I Hit The Ground, Snoop Dog Baby, Trendy, Say "Ten", What Are Friends For, A Little Doubt Goes A Long Way, Somebody Loved Me, The Set Up, and She's Famous Now.

That's what I want. Those are some great lyrics, not to mention some of their best songs.

You forgot Brand New Song and I'm Her Man, two of my absolute favorites. I don't know how everyone doesn't love them. I think The Fire is pretty good, too. Very ambiguous.

And She's Famous Now is totally about being in a band.

Til I Hit The Ground is my favourite RBF song, lyric wise. I've never really though RBF has great lyrics, with some exceptions.
Some funny ones, though.

Aaron's good at wordplay, that's what I like to see him do. But sometimes, he does good with something more straightforward in there ("But I do" from Snoop Dogg Baby is such a perfect climax to the song, and the way it winds down after that is perfect), the sarcasm is funny, but sometimes he goes a bit too far.

The best song I think he's ever written is Good Old Days, and I kind of see that as a capper to his more 'negative' style of lyrics.

But yeah, lyrics aren't really what RBF is about. Still, I like to see him try new things out.

She's Famous Now is not just about being in a band. It has another layer to it, which works great.
