Meet You And What Army: 20 Questions Returns!
Following 20 Question Interviews with the twin titans Stand-Up Guy and Sacred Betrayal, this morning we bring you the responses from the somewhat left-field looking rap-rave-rock goliath that is You And What Army.
Want to know which of our favourite rave-rockers saw 5ive as their very first gig? Who has been known to kiss the necks of other band members in his sleep? Who they'd roast on a spit on a desert island? Well read on...
1) If your band were Prime Minister for the day what three things would you do?
1. Have a referendum on voting reform
2. Get out of the EU
3. Sort immigration policies right out
[Compared to most bands' policies on partying and rocking out, these seem suspiciously sensible! - RBBJ]
...After making pipe smoking for the unemployed mandatory, of course (Who wouldn’t employ someone that sophisticated?)
2) Which other Red Bull Bedroom Jam bands do you love and why?
Silent Descent, we’ve gigged with those boys and loved them, really got along with them – wicked live show too! Kieran’s also a friend of Bim, been watching them a while and they are beautiful.
3) As a band, what would be your karaoke number?
Break Stuff by Limp Bizkit! Clearly the peak of musical achievement.
4) Which member of the band would make the best TV presenter, and what kind of show should they front?
Zak could present Bid TV really really well
5) What were you called before you finally settled on your current band name, and why? Why did you ditch it?
We were called Mutilated Foetal Eye Gunk. We ditched it because it wasn't offensive enough.
6) Other than voting for you in RBBJ, what’s the best thing about your fans? What makes them unique?
They turn up to shows with glow sticks, some in labcoats, some with rave paint, some in YAWA t shirts, some in glowing colours. You can spot them a mile off. They are ace!
7) Which band in the world would you most want to play a show with a why?
Linkin Park, we all love them and we get compared to them all the time with the rapper singer duo.
8) As a band, what one word do you all use far too much?
Only black people are supposed to say it but... here goes: “DAYUM!”
9) What one thing do you envy about another band that you wish you had?
Axel Rose’s down-to-earth personality. We’re all pretty much as egotistical as Kanye West.
10) What one food and one drink could the whole band live off for a whole tour?
Red Bull and Dave’s moms’ lasagne. Preferably mixed together in smoothie form.
11) If your band were the A Team, who would be who?
Face – Kieran because he has a face
Mr. T – Jamie because Mr. T would be an amazing bass player
‘Howling Mad’ Murdoch – Dave because he’s a little bit insane
Hannibal – Zak because he was thinking of Hannibal Lecter
The female reporter whose name no-one can remember – Our female singer whose name no-one can remember
12) I f you could put on your own festival which 5 bands would play and who would headline? Where would it be and who would host it?
Headliner: You And What Army
Main Support: Linkin Park
Supports: Fightstar
Deftones
Periphery
It would be on a space station and Chuck Palahniuk would host it, interspersing wise metaphorical anecdotes between sets over the P.A.
13) Who in the band has the strangest talent and what is it? Note you may be asked to provide video evidence!
Zak can do the Cadbury’s eyebrow dance amazingly. That is his only talent.
14) Who in the band has the worst habits? Feel free to name and shame.
Zak has a habit of attempting to attack band members in their sleep. Kieran once punched him in the face because he was drunkenly kissing his neck. We wish we were joking.
15) What’s the best useless fact you know.
Mr T has 128 STIs - 8 of which are only found in Sharks
16) As a band, who are your heroes?
Chino (Deftones), Rod Serling (the man who presented the twilight zone), The Dude from The Big Lebowski, Sketch, Scratch and Cordozar Calvin Broadus Jr.
17) You’re stranded on a desert island, which member of your band do you eat first and why?
Jamie, because he'll fill you up! Plus we couldn’t miss the opportunity to put an apple in his mouth as he roasts for novelty’s sake.
18) Who in the band has the most embarrassing first gig? Name and shame please.
Dave saw 5ive – it was the single greatest moment of his life to date.
19) Which of your songs has the most ludicrous title? What does it mean?
We have a song with the working title “Crunkulon V”. It means it’s one step up from Crunkulon IV.
20) What’s your ultimate goal as a band?
To have the same effect as all great bands have on people. To travel the world, to sell out major shows and in years to come headline festivals across the globe... and most of all to make people *feel* something when they see us play!

Three things to note- they look pretty in purple, they're obviously mental, and they are not lying about that Zak!
