I always love it when they do interviews. Their music means a lot to me, I've been growing up with it for the past 4 years. Their new album is giving them the recognition they deserve, I'm proud of them. Can't wait to see them on tour one day!
I'm really digging the lyrics on Morbid Stuff, they're amazing relatable but not at all self-centered or "look at me, i'm sad, i'm struggling, my suffering is something worth of your time". It's about how we get used to feeling down and kind of start liking it and fetishizing it. Lyrics like "Just cause you're sad again it doesnt' make you're special" or "I've been having some prett dark thoughts and i like them a lot" in "Free at Last" and "Scorpion Hill" respectively hit hard on the subject, but Full Blown Meltdown really destroys the idea of the tortured artist as something to be admired. It's amazing. It's a message that our time needs so much
Stefan is one of my favourite lyricists working today. This album and also The Dream is Over have helped me so much with relationship/break up problems. His way with words is phenomenal and he has so much personality. I think this band will be really popular if they ever get pushed to a wider audience, they're amazing.
In an age when people don't really put so much effort or even bother with music videos so much anymore, it is so refreshing to see PUP making amazing and original music videos frequently. The video for Kids is so damn good! Loved this interview by the way. Great questions and equally great responses.
It's exactly the bluntness of their approach to topics like relationships, success, and self-loathing that gives them that mass appeal. I love heavy music but these guys are special to me because they cut to the core of the human experience.
I was really disappointed to hear that these guys were all nihilists, but they're entitled to choose that dead end road, even if it is just dead weight and shallow and foolish and doesn't really empower them or others in any way. The band's name is really fitting now. They're so gifted.
I live Stefan, but I think he needs to get the surgery and just take a year off. I’m pretty sure all the fans would rather him be gone for a year and then be able to perform for a very long time, than keep going and ruin your voice in 3-5 years. I don’t want what happened to Liam Gallagher to happen to him. Liam has recovered now but there was a period in time (2004-2013) where he couldn’t sing at all. I just would hate to see it happen to one of my favorite bands.
On the topic of mental illness being marketable and glorified, it affects many of the "sadboi" bands you see in the scene today. Look at Joe Taylor writing half an album of music about how much he hates how he's become a slave to the records and something he loved.
"I've been having some pretty dark thoughts and I like them a lot"
"I'm on the brink of falling deep into debt, falling deep into drink"
love the interviewer, he seems genuinely interested and is actually asking really good questions. nice interview

Pup has been my favourite band as of 2016. This has been the most relatble record I've heard in the last few years. These dudes are killing the scene.
Matt Ricci couldn’t have said it better myself
Pup isn't my anti-drug; BUT they are certainly my anti-give-up-on-it-all
This band is a huge source of light for me in the dark moments of life. Thanks PUP!!
i got to see them in columbus last night and it was amazing. i love them they are so relatable i’ve never heard anything like what they’ve done

Man I’d kill for them to come up to Alaska. I really hope to see them live one day
I hope so too!
This album to me is so damn relatable .

Really great interview about an even better album.
Come on youtube this was uploaded 2 days ago and It's only recommended now?

Anthony Fantano called, he wants his red flannel back.

Is that not standard issue for all Canadians?
Luke Berrie nah, he’ll just wear the yellow one lol
I LOVE U PUP
It's a great album.
well u know he’s been using humor with the situation he was in
This is exactly how all interviewers should be

super late reply to this. can I ask what this is all about? haven't finished the interview so maybe it will be addressed, but fill me in if you can!
Stefan's head is turned to the side for most of this video. It makes my neck hurt just looking at it haha.
Smart puppies for sure
Awesome interviewer
