Q&A: Sons and Daughters - Spin.com

How is it that a band from Glasgow can relate to American music so well?

I don't know, really. When we first started playing we said we were going to pull out everything we liked and just see what happens. It could've turned out horrendous; it could've just been a big old mess. I don't think you necessarily have to experience something to write about it. You can see that in music by people like Morrissey. He was holed up in Manchester in his bedroom for like five years with no friends and he managed to create all these beautiful stories.

  • I refuse to believe that Morrissey didn't at one point have two boys in one hand & decide that he'd settle for just one in a bush.

    I'm not sure Linder would agree with the no friends comment, but it's nice that they like him & his music.

  • "Taste The Last Girl" on Sons & Daughters' debut LP, "The Repulsion Box" is an absolutely brilliant piece of early-Smiths pastice. Think "Handsome Devil" or "Hand In Glove" on speed. Sons & Daughters are a fantastic band.
