There's no tour plans, no reunion, no new album... nothing.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
So we are not doing the traditional album, tour, album, tour, album, tour anymore. We're going to tour when we want to, regardless of whether we've got a record out.
I don't actually like touring.
Each album takes two or two-and-a-half years to finish between recording and touring. It's like being with an old boyfriend every single night watching the same things on TV. There is a world out there going on that I'm missing.
Each album has its own cycle. We wanted to capture all those feelings and moments for this touring cycle.
Whatever happens on tour... stays on tour!
I'm just saying that at least for the foreseeable future there won't be any more touring.
If you don't tour, you cannot expect to sell a huge numbers of your albums either. It was both a business - and an economical decision and we wanted to play anyway. We just wanted to get out for the tour when it was safe enough for us.
I wouldn't do just a tour, it would have to be an album, and the album would have to beat Pull.
We'll only be playing four new songs live, but all the material for the next album is basically finished.
Traditionally the show must go on which is a stupid thing to say, but that in a nutshell is what's going on. We have a new record out; if we won't tour, the new record dies. It's reality - it's what business is nowadays. You just need to tour to sell your albums.
