Attack! Attack! UK Week: Day 2

(antiMusic) The British are coming, the British are coming. That is Attack! Attack! UK's new self-titled album is coming out next week. To celebrate the pending release from these buzz worthy Welsh rockers, we asked the band's frontman Neil Starr to pick some of his favorite songs from the album and tell us about them. Here is Neil with today's song:

Too Bad Son: Will had written the bulk of this song and recorded it roughly on his PC and sent it to me as an MP3, I remember burning it on to disc and playing it over and over in my car when drove somewhere , it went days without any inspiration but then suddenly one day whilst driving something happened and the melody just appeared in my head. Scared about forgetting it I pulled over straight away and started filming myself on my phone sing the melody, I am not sure where that video is now but it would be YouTube gold if someone finds it haha .

The end of the song kinda just happened whilst in practice, we were just rehearsing the parts Will had written and when it got to the end of the breakdown I just played the notes out of instinct, the words and melody just came out of my mouth (close our eyes.....don't be frightened...) at that point too and we were all like "that's really catchy" , they were the first words that I sang to that melody and they just stuck, Lionel Ritchie refers to that happening as "Gods words" apparently, its funny how sometimes that stuff happens!
