Need questions for a possible interview

[TomiT14]

Yo guys, what's up?

Haven't been here since the start of the tour, just to avoid all the spoilers about the shows, so I can enjoy their show here in Finland with the setlist being a surprise for me.

In case you didn't know, I'm running a website for Finnish fans, Sum 41 Finland.
I asked Matt if it's possible to interview the guys for my site. Afterall it's their first time in Finland.
He said he tries to get it to work, but couldn't make a promise since he doesn't know their schedule here yet.

But in case I get a chance to chat with the guys, I need some topics to talk about. Of course I have some, but in case I've forgotten something vital, please post questions you'd like to get an answer to.

And again, I'm not sure if this is even going to work, but just in case.

why the fuck isnt island releasing the album yet?

[SumGeek]

Maybe ask them

Spoiler: show

Where the hell is the 12 minute epic song?!

How about what was the biggest challenge while making SBM? (We know for Underclass Hero this was how personal some of the songs on that album were to Deryck and stuff he has never written about before or opened up to about much.)

[Emil]

Ask them wich language they like best in Finland, Swedish or Finnish.
Oh, and which type of show they prefer, small intimate club shows or arena shows.

Do you like John Denver ?? it is a question that I would like to know an answer to ...do not know why but it would be nice if you asked them for me ...I know they listen to a lot of old stuff like John Lennon,The Beatles or Bob Dylan ...but didn't hear a thing about John Denver

I almost forgot ! ask them if the music from this studio update got on the record ...he said there that it maybe won't and I want it there ...I mean if you'll get the chance to interview them ...

[Mitchell]

PM @ myspace

[Mitchell]

these are a few questions.. there are gonna be more I guess..

-Will there be a making of Screaming Bloody Murder?
-How is the first single coming along?
-Are there any kind of special instruments on the album like te violin in so long goodbye or the trumpets in king of contradiction?
-When will the official announcement be?
-What is the status on the mixing and mastering?

[DeryckW]

Way back in time, Sum 41 was about to release a song but the label didn't want it to be released for what ever reason, can't you just "leak" that song?

[Faeyaner]

Deryck said the album will not be about the break-up, so what is it (lyrically) about instead?
What made them go to a "heavier direction" (again) (not that i wouldn't appreciate this) ?

And hell yes, where is this fucking 12min epic shit ._.

Ahh, and please Sums: make some stupid home videos/p4p videos

There are 2 songs about the break up.. the songs are all about something that Deryck experienced in his life(like the car crash in front of his house)

The 12 minute song will be released when they officially announce the album

They have Studio updates and tour updates instead of the home videos

"-Are there any kind of special instruments on the album like te violin in so long goodbye or the trumpets in king of contradiction?"

Very good one !

They said that mixing is finished, they're just waiting for the mastering.

[Mitchell]

The mixing can't be finished because Deryck is going to re-record a solo..
and Deryck is the king of contradiction himself this time.. He stated that the mixing and mastering was done several times but also told a few interviewers that the mixing/mastering hasn't been completed

-Well, like you said above, we had those studio updates...
-First single will probably be Blood in My Eyes or Screaming Bloody Murder
-"There are some crazy effects on this record", I can imagine
-They have no clue about the offcial announcement
-Deryck's just re-recording a solo so we can finally wrap everything up

[TomiT14]

Keep it coming guys! I'd prefer to have a few more.

[FuckT41182]
