A Day To Remember are currently in the middle of a touring cycle, but the band has been working hard on new music. In a new interview, Jeremy McKinnon discussed the band’s new music, when they plan to hit the studio, and how it compares to What Separates Me From You. Read the full interview here and a snippet of it below by clicking “Read More”.

So what’s happening next for A Day To Remember? Lots more touring?
After this [U.K.] tour, we’ve got a week-and-a-half off and then we’re doing a short tour with some radio events. Then we’ve got six weeks off before we start touring with Rise Against across the U.S. Then we’re doing Soundwave in Australia and then we’re coming back to Europe for some summer festivals. After we’re done with that, we’re going to go straight into recording a new record.

How much new stuff do you have written so far?
I write constantly, and I’ve been writing constantly for the course of the two years we’ve been touring, so I’ve got a ton of ideas for new stuff. The folder on my external hard drive, which I demo on, is pretty massive now, and I’m really happy with what we have so far.

Is the new material in a similar vein to What Separates Me From You?
I’m not sure. Like I said, we’ve not put them all together yet as a band, so it’s hard to say. At the moment, it’s just me writing songs, and then we’ll break them down from there and add things here and there to make it A Day To Remember record. We’re never going to be a band who feels like they’ve got to change their sound drastically to fit with what’s going on; we’re not interested in that. I’m interested in playing heavy music influenced by pop-punk and pop music. There’s no way we could write the same record over again, because we’re five bands in one, and that always comes through. So it’ll be the same band, but one that’s branching out a little bit more and still playing the same kind of music.
