In "Deep South" what does the line "Born on the same day as the sun" mean?

What will be your second single from Cycles?

At first I thought it was "son" not "sun"

either way I'd imagine if I was right it'd be 25th December like Jesus. Or January 1st (start of the year) if he's birthday is on one of those dates?

if not... then that is a good question.

My question is,

Are there any plans on a UK tour next year? Possibly at Give It A Name?

You haven't toured here since 2008 and I didn't go to that show out of the pure hatred for Plain White T's at the time.

In the song "Wasted" are you referring back to yourself in this part here? Or is that just a generalization?

And I'm 18 couldn't wait to move out
It's been 5 years and now I'm starting to doubt...
Whether all my dreams are just aimless stares
Looking off to someplace that isn’t there

When I'm 32 will I be miserable?
With everything around based on principle
Will I have a clue, oh wouldn't it be nice
to never be alone in this wasted life.


This is one of my favorites you've ever written. Helped me out a lot a couple of years ago, so thank you for that. I look forward to seeing you play again, you've always been one of my favorites to see live, as well.

How is reception of the new album? Personally I liked, since I am a big fan of Cartel. And when are you going to come to Brazil? We are expecting a show of you since 2005.

Since you guys were in the studio for such a long time this past summer, I can't help but think that there were many songs that were recorded but didn't make the cut. If so, do you have any plans to release a b-sides cd?

P.S. Still waiting for a full band version of "Fiend". That song is great!

Why wasn't "In No Hurry" included on the album? It's a really great song.

How has your song writing changed over the years, from the departure of Andy Lee with "The Ransom" to the departure of Ryan with "chroma". Did those departures have a huge impact on the writing process for the last 2 albums? Did Nic and Jeff bring a different vibe as far as writing was concerned?
