James Cassells was recently interviewed by KFMX’s Wes Nessman and discussed some of the band’s future plans. With the band having reunited with Danny Worsnop, Cassells said they are “gonna go back to doing what [they] were doing with Danny” and they are “gonna be moving forward with new music.”
Cassells also said the following about the reunion:
“Before this tour, I’d only spoken to Danny once very briefly, [and] some of the [other] guys [in the band] hadn’t spoken to him at all. We needed to make sure that we would still enjoy touring together. That was a question that we were all asking ourselves, and it’s not like we don’t know if we can fucking handle it, but when you’ve been away from playing music on stage with someone for so long, that question does arise. But we’ve just hit the halfway mark on the tour, and it’s been amazing — it’s probably been one of my favorite tours, I think, I’ve ever [done] in my career, and we’re having a great time. So now [that we know] we can obviously perform together better than ever, the shows are doing great, now it’s, like, ‘Let’s get some music written.’”
He continued:
“I think in the coming year, we’re really gonna get ourselves in the studio and start working on new material. We already have — Ben [Bruce, guitar] and me and the guys, we are constantly writing music; that’s a constant thing — but we are actually gonna go get in the studio with Danny, go lock ourselves away for a bit and really work on some great new material for people… We are gonna lock ourselves away. It might take a minute, which I think that’s good. Danny’s a busy guy — he’s got a lot of projects on at the moment. We’ve been touring pretty much constantly for a while now. Having a little bit of time to lock ourselves away, get creative, get back in that flow. So, yeah, the next year, though, is gonna be a busy year for us — not so much in the forefront, like playing shows etc., but for us as musicians, we’re gonna be in the studio, we’re gonna be in the practice space, we’re gonna working. There’s gonna be a lot of work going on, man.”
