AS THEY MOVE TOWARDS THEIR THIRD ALBUM WITH A NEW DRUMMER AND A NEW OUTLOOK, GUITARIST MARK OSBORNE GIVES US THE LOWDOWN ON EVERYTHING GOING ON IN MOOSE BLOOD’S CAMP…

HOW’S THIS RECORD GOING?

“We demoed it all at home with our friend Rich in his studio and then we came out [to Los Angeles] with Beau Burchell, our producer, and worked through the songs again from scratch to have his input in things – on the way we write and structure songs and everything like that. But even before coming out here we felt really happy and really excited about doing this record, because they were the strongest demos that we’d ever written before going into the studio properly. So we feel like we’re in a really good place – which is really nice, because we haven’t felt like that for a while.”

SO YOU’RE FEELING PRETTY GOOD ABOUT ALBUM THREE?

“We were really happy that we were in a place where we felt like we could make another record and wanted to make another record – and that we can get over the stuff that’s happened and move past that and be ourselves again. [To] try to lose all the worry and anxiety that came off the back of the whole situation that we went through. This process right now – making this record – is hopefully just another part of the healing process that’s going to get us back to normal and feeling 100 per cent happy and confident in what we’re doing again.”

ARE YOU ON THE WAY TO BEING 100 PER CENT AGAIN THEN?
