>We're very excited to have the opportunity to record in a professional studio and we're definately pleased with how it turned out.

Was it a long on going process recording it or did you guys go into the studio knowing exactly how you wanted everything to sound only taking a couple of takes for each song?

>Well we spent about 11 days in the studio for the album. We went in knowing the sound that we wanted for all of the songs, but after hearing quality recordings we were impressed at how they all turned out. The takes seemed to all pass fairly quickly during the whole process.

Were there any major themes or concepts behind this album?

>We just hoped that this album would be fun to listen to. Other than that we really didn't have a specific theme.

Now i understand you guys are currently on tour throughout the Midwest and East coast, in fact i think you're passing through my area May 6th in Valpo IN. how has the tour been going for you guys?

>The tour has been amazing so far, we're all excited to be back on the road and we hope to continue touring for the rest of the year.

I'm not quite sure how long you guys have been out for, but do you have any feelings of home sickness yet, or are you guys still excited about the chance to live out your dreams touring the USA?

>Well we've been out on the road for less than a week now, so we haven't really felt any homesickness yet. But we're definately stoked to be on the road, meeting new people every day and just having a good time.

I had the chance to see you guys in Florida at a New year's show at 688 Skatepark in Clearwater, FL and for as slight as the crowd was, you guys seemed to really tear it apart, in fact i think i might have been one of the people throwing in a few cartwheels for you guys. But do you guys usually carry that much presence for every one of your shows? (i understand that it was a show that happened right around your time of recording, but for being off for a while you guys were pretty amazing.)

>We try to pour all our energy into every show and to make every show a party. We'd love for everyone just to have a good time and for kids to stop being so serious all the time. Right now it's kind of tough to have the normal energy level on stage, because our lead singer twisted his ankle last night and a few of us our sick. But hopefully we won't let that drop our live show energy.

Are there any personal favorites on the album for you, or songs you especially enjoy playing live?

>Lately we've been ending our shows with "High Noon", it seems to have more energy live than any other. It's our favorite song to play.

If somebody were to open your cd case or maybe take a look through the cds in your car, what do you think they might find?

>Not what you'd expect. We each have diverse taste in music, so each of our CD cases are different. You can find anything from Coldplay to The Bled to Sigur Ros to Panic! at the Disco. We all just listen to music that we enjoy and we try not to only listen to the type of music that we play.

Would you say that some of those bands have lead to the sound you guys have become today?

>I'm sure that everything we've listened to in the past has had some sort of an influence on our songwriting, but it might be difficult to hear their influence on our album.

If there was one thing you'd like to let people know about Pilots & Paper Plane's what would it be?

>Umm... That it's for sale now for just $9.99 at bloodandinkrecords.com hahaha

It has been great getting to do an interview with you guys and i wish you all the luck with the new album and touring. Do you have any last words you'd like to share with us?
