I&#8217;ve seen a lot of Parkway Drive videos and the crowd seems to know how to move around to some heavy music, so I&#8217;m waiting to see what these shows are all about.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You are going to be out here for a over a week, what are you looking forward to most about being in Australia?<br \/>\n<\/strong>The one thing is trying your guys sushi, I want to see how it compares to here in the States. \u00a0I am a huge sushi fan. \u00a0In general just being a tourist and seeing your country that I have dreamt about going to since I can pretty much ever remember of knowing of Australia.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Have you had a chance to check out the rest of the Soundwave Revolution lineup, any bands you are personally looking forward to checking out or playing with?<br \/>\n<\/strong>I&#8217;ve seen quite a bit of the lineup, we have some of our friends from the Warped tour and other tours we have been on. I know Van Halen, Alice Cooper, Story Of The Year, The Used, Thursday.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Being your first time out here, do you have much of an idea of how well known The Word Alive is here in Australia?<br \/>\n<\/strong>I know anytime we have ever posted anything on our social networking sites, I&#8217;ve always seen comments from people like \u201ccome to Australia, come to Australia\u201d. \u00a0Over the past few years, some of the same faces keep recurring, so I&#8217;ve chatted to some of those as I like to keep in contact with fans as much as I can. \u00a0I know they&#8217;ve been supporting our band and telling all their friends for the past few years, so I am hoping we will have a strong fan base, but I guess we will find out soon enough!<\/p>\n<p><strong>What can your fans expect from your set at Soundwave Revolution, how would you describe The Word Alive live experience?<br \/>\n<\/strong>I feel we are a band that has a lot to offer something for the people who like to stand in the back and admire people who can actually play their instruments and play them well, I feel we have that technical ability in our band. \u00a0I feel we are really solid live as far as comparing to our CD goes. \u00a0Then for everyone else who like to move around, we bring a lot of energy and a lot of that is my job to try and pump up the crowd and get them involved! \u00a0So long as Australia is down to moving around, I think we are going to get along just great!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Well I don&#8217;t think there will be any problems with that! from Australian crowds<br \/>\n<\/strong>That\u2019s great to hear!<\/p>\n<p><strong>So given what you just said about it being your job to pump up the crowd, how do you find the whole festival experience, taking your music to a bigger stage, compared to playing the smaller more intimate venues?<br \/>\n<\/strong>Some of the time I think at festival shows, people generally come with the mindset that they are going to move and have a good time. \u00a0Whilst club shows people can also have that same mindset, being a much smaller environment, people can often be forced into it. \u00a0I feel sometimes it\u2019s a little better if you have a sold out show and 500 to 1,000 kids and every time 10 people move, then 100 people move, I feel that gets people into things a lot quicker. \u00a0At festival shows you have got people wanting to stir up dirt, people wanting to crowd surf and come over barriers and be seen a lot more by the bands as it&#8217;s in the daytime. \u00a0I guess also festival shows are rare during the year, it&#8217;s something kids look forward to each year. \u00a0So I anticipate that same mindset when we come, with people being really excited about a lot of bands.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do you guys have any interesting tour \u201crituals\u201d or things you guys as a band do to keep yourselves sane haha!<br \/>\n<\/strong>We all get along really great in the band. \u00a0In our bus we watch movies, play video games, we like a lot of the same things. \u00a0I think a lot of the guys in the band are really funny which also really helps. \u00a0We will bring guitars on the bus and make up songs about each other and stuff like that. \u00a0So I think we try and keep ourselves entertained one way or another.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You recently released your debut full length album \u2018Deciever\u2019 and I see you are already starting work on your follow up album.\u00a0 Firstly, for those that may be new to the band, what can you tell us about your album Deciever?<br \/>\n<\/strong>Well we released it in August last summer. \u00a0This year we have had some great opportunities for tours, we had our first headline tour of the States and did really well with that, especially coming into almost a year since it&#8217;s been released now. As we&#8217;ve started travelling the world a little more, fans have started not only discovering our band, but really paying attention to the songs and what we are about. \u00a0So I feel even in the last 6 months or so, compared to the last few years, we are starting to have some truly diehard fans who understand what we are about, understand what our music means to them and I feel we have a lot of our fan base who really have an in depth connection with the band. Now we are at the point where people have listened to our CD consistently for over a year now and know every song inside out. \u00a0When you go and see a band for the first time, chances are you are not going to be jumping around and going crazy, it&#8217;s likely you will watch the band and see what they are about. \u00a0I feel like now we have had a lot of the same kids see us 3,5,7,8 times since the CD came out, so now it&#8217;s getting to the point where they can be jumping around and singing along and just enjoy themselves, so we are seeing that stage now at a lot of our shows.<\/p>\n<p><strong>When are you planning to start work ork on new album?<br \/>\n<\/strong>We have booked studio time for February and March of next year. \u00a0So pretty much between now and then we are going to be constantly writing. \u00a0We have about 7 demo ideas and about 2 full songs done right now. \u00a0We are not going to set a number, we will just keep writing, whether we get to 15 songs or 20 songs, we are going to write until the day before we get into the studio. \u00a0We\u2019re going to pick the best 12 or 13 songs and we are going to make sure we have the best sophomore album we can make.<\/p>\n<p><strong>From an earlier answer, it sounds like you have no major problems coming up with songs about each other haha, but do you write new material on road?<br \/>\n<\/strong>Yes that&#8217;s pretty much it, all of the songs we write out on the road or the bus. \u00a0We have these little practice amps so Zack and Tony can jam really easily. \u00a0We have recording software on one of our computers and some recording equipment, so we can record, not quality for release to the public demos, but a good enough quality that we can understand and critique them and build them into strong songs. \u00a0Actually, the guys have been writing earlier tonight, and once Zack and I are done with interviews for you guys, we have an 11 hour drive so it&#8217;s probably going to be back writing music.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is that because you guys tour so much and it\u2019s really only when you have time, or do you find it a more inspiring environment?<br \/>\n<\/strong>I think it&#8217;s a mixture of things. \u00a0Part of it is because we do tour a lot and we are gone a lot. \u00a0That kind of leads to the thing when we are home, we don&#8217;t necessarily want to be cooped up in a studio all the time. \u00a0I live in California, the band is from Arizona, our drummer lives in Oregon, so we are kind of spread out so this is the majority of the time we spend together. \u00a0All of our mindset is on music, it&#8217;s not like hey, I have a family dinner to go to coming up this week etc. \u00a0It&#8217;s like when we are on the road, music is 100% our life, that&#8217;s eat, sleep and breathe and everything we do. \u00a0I think it&#8217;s easier to get in a groove for us now that we have been a steady touring band for the last few years. \u00a0So we have just grown accustomed to at first that we had to write in the road, now we kind of like it!<\/p>\n<p><strong>How would you describe the musical direction of the new material, compared to what you delivered on Deceiver?<br \/>\n<\/strong>I think we want to be a band that progresses from album to album. \u00a0We definitely want to try a lot of new things, we have improved individually as musicians and myself as a vocalist. So naturally there will be things we couldn&#8217;t have done before. \u00a0We have a good mindset of what our fans like and expect from us, so we are not going to deviate too far from that at any given time, but we are not going to write the same songs 12 or 13 times. \u00a0We are a band that likes every song to sound different on our albums.\u00a0 So we are going to try that again and create an even stronger catalogue of songs that showcase what we are best at doing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>So what\u2019s in store for the rest of 2011 after you finish up with Soundwave?<br \/>\n<\/strong>Well to fully complete our year we fly to Europe after Soundwave for the Never Say Die festival with Suicide Silence and Emmure. \u00a0Then we come home for a little break, then we go on the Fearless Friends tour in US, and a bit of Canada, then we will be writing until we head into the studio in around February 2012!<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Counter Revolution\" href=\"http:\/\/maytherockbewithyou.com\/mtrbwy\/2011\/08\/counter-revolution\/\">You can catch The Word Alive at Counter Revolution, all the details right here&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Essential Information<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>From:\u00a0<\/strong>USA<\/p>\n<p><strong>Band Members:\u00a0<\/strong>&#8220;Telle&#8221; Tyler Smith &#8211; Vocals,\u00a0Tony Pizzuti &#8211; Guitar, Vocals,\u00a0Zack Hansen &#8211; Guitar, Vocals,\u00a0Dusty Riach &#8211; Keys,\u00a0Justin Salinas &#8211; Drums,\u00a0Daniel Shapiro &#8211; Bass<\/p>\n<p><strong>Websites:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/thewordalive\">www.facebook.com\/thewordalive<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Latest Release:\u00a0<\/strong>Deceiver &#8211; 2010<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>You can catch The Word Alive on tour with Every Time I Die and The Acacia Strain<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>FRIDAY 23 SEPTEMBER<br \/>\n<\/strong>BRISBANE, THE HI FI- 18+<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.oztix.com.au\/\">www.oztix.com.au<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>MONDAY 26 SEPTEMBER<\/strong><br \/>\nSYDNEY, MANNING BAR\u00a0\u2013 18+<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.oztix.com.au\/\">www.oztix.com.au<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>THURSDAY 29 SEPTEMBER<\/strong><br \/>\nMELBOURNE, THE ESPY\u00a0&#8211; 18+<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.oztix.com.au\/\">www.oztix.com.au<\/a>\u00a0\/\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.espy.com.au\/\">www.espy.com.au<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>SATURDAY 1 OCTOBER<\/strong><br \/>\nADELAIDE, FOWLERS LIVE\u00a0&#8211; Lic A\/A<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.moshtix.com.au\/\">www.moshtix.com.au<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.venuetix.com.au\/\">www.venuetix.com.au<\/a>\u00a0&amp; outlets<\/p>\n<p><strong>MONDAY 3 OCTOBER<\/strong><br \/>\nPERTH, AMPLIFIER BAR\u00a0\u2013 18+<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.moshtix.com.au\/\">www.moshtix.com.au<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/maytherockbewithyou.com\/mtrbwy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/ETID_Homepage-Artist-Banner.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-159\" title=\"Every Time I Die Australian Tour\" src=\"http:\/\/maytherockbewithyou.com\/mtrbwy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/ETID_Homepage-Artist-Banner-300x131.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"131\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maytherockbewithyou.com\/mtrbwy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/ETID_Homepage-Artist-Banner-300x131.jpg 300w, https:\/\/maytherockbewithyou.com\/mtrbwy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/ETID_Homepage-Artist-Banner.jpg 872w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cWe bring a lot of energy and a lot of that is my job to try and pump up the crowd and get them involved! \u00a0So long as Australia is down to moving around, I think we are going to get along just great!&#8230;\u201d Like many bands on the Soundwave Revolution lineup, The Word Alive find themselves in the enviable [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":489,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6,5,4],"tags":[70,73,71,72],"class_list":["post-488","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-6","category-features","category-interviews","tag-every-time-i-die","tag-soundwave-touring","tag-the-acacia-strain","tag-the-word-alive"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
