Joby Ford: I remember when� f**kin' like when Sunny Day Real Estate and Jimmy Eat World first hit� That's where emo started, for me. Those two records. But now it's really just doubled on itself and gone through such a regression. The sensitive, aggressive emotional music nowadays is f**kin hilarious man. Oh my god. To me, strapping on a guitar and rockin' the f**k out� It's this thing, this feeling of empowerment. I can't imagine someone strapping on a guitar, and that's what comes out. You know what I'm saying? Like at what point in these kids lives did they say "Dude, that rocks so much. That's what I want to do." I mean, the first concert I ever went to was AC/DC, and I was like Wow, man, f**k yeah! It was exciting rock n' roll, and I just think to myself, like� these kids go to these shows and they see some pussy crying over f**kin' spilled milk or something, and they're like "Yeah! I wanna do that!" It's like� no, man. You're missing the point. read this full interview

Joby Ford: We're off Def Jam / Island, and we are going to put our albums out ourselves on White Drugs. There's no point in being on a record label anymore. Even if you are signed, is that label even gonna exist in five years? It's something that's very very hard to take seriously, because record labels have to make money. And so therefore as a band, you have to do stuff that's f**king ridiculous. You just can't take it seriously. It's like, I don't want to do signings, I don't want to have to do weird contests where you get a t-shirt and a soda and hang out with your f**kin� I don't want to do that. I want to play music because I like it. That stuff is fine for different bands, but that stuff just doesn't interest me. I just want to be in a band, put out my music and play. - Read The Full Interview
