Ultimamente si è parlato molto del nuovo album “Dirty Work” degli All Time Low, il frontman Alex Gaskarth ha, così, deciso di puntualizzare alcune cose:
“L’ultimo album era troppo, troppo elegante” ha affermato Alex Gaskarth durante l’intervista rilasciata ad MTV News la scorsa settimana.
“Non rinneghiamo Nothing Personal assolutamente, ma ci siamo resi conto che durante le registrazioni era troppo pop per ciò che scriviamo e per la band stessa.

“No regrets, it definitely was an awesome, awesome album,” Gaskarth said. “It’s just one of those things where, I think over the year and a half that it’s been out we’ve sort of been able to approach it from all different angles,” he explained. “When it first comes out, obviously you’re really excited about it, and that’s all you really pay attention to, but when you have a little time to step away and listen again, you kind of see everything you did right, but everything you’d maybe like to change next time.”
Perhaps the biggest change of all? Taking a step back production-wise, a move that, for the first time on disc, has All Time Low sounding very much like a band just setting up in a room and letting it rip. You can call it maturation or you call it “gritty,” and you wouldn’t be wrong either way. But the guys in ATL have a very different way of describing Dirty Work.
“With Nothing Personal … we were like, ‘OK, this is our record, we can do whatever we want. We know how to record now, we know what we want.’ And so we threw everything that we thought was, like, ‘great production’ against the wall,” drummer Rian Dawson said. “And it sounded great, but at the end of the day, we were kind of like, ‘This kind of sounds like. … ‘
” ‘It sounds like unicorn poop,’ ” Gaskarth added.
