Jaja, die schottischen Melancholiker. Nachdem die Labelkollegen von Frightened Rabbit sich weigerten, Fragen nach ihren liebsten Punksongs zu beantworten, haben The Twilight Sad zwar den Punk im Blut, werden aber um nichts in der Welt die Tanzfläche besuchen:

* Your three favourite Punk singles/songs?

* A record that will make you dance?

N/A

* Your favourite song lyrics?

i don’t really have any, seen as it’s summer, these lyrics are quite good (Arab Strap – The First Big Weekend, Anm.)

„It was a good night – everyone was nutted and I ended up dancing with some blonde girl.
I thought she had been quite pretty until last night when Matthew informed me that she had, in fact, been a pig.“

from the same song –

„and later that evening Malcolm introduced me to the power of Merrydown – 1.79 a litre, 8.2% – mmmm…..“

**translation =

nutted – pretty much wasted/off your face on drugs and alcohol
pig – farm animal built of mainly bacon and sausages/ugly girl
merrydown – cider that teenagers and homeless people would consume
