We catch up with lead singer Phil to discuss where the band is at\nman... What inspired you to make this concept album, time was right? I had to look up what a concept album was, it means an album\nwhere the songs all relate to each other? It must have been an accident due to memory loss, “Phil, haven’t we already done a song\nabout war?” “Phil, haven’t we already done a song about corruption?” We live in dark times, the stupid ones are in charge, the evil ones\nare at the controls. It’s hard to write songs about kittens and flowers at the moment. It’s been six years since your last album, why so\nlong? It’s taken a while! At first due to laziness, everyday life gets in the way, we have to pay the rent and eat so tyres have to be\nchanged, holes have to be dug, floors have to be swept, then there was a pandemic! but it’s mostly laziness, we are lazy cunts. The\nalbum was produced by Carl Rosamond at the Billiard Room in Leeds. What’s it like working with him? Everything we have ever\nrecorded is with Mr Rosamond, he’s the extra member of the band. Who needs George Martin or Phil Spector when you have the\n‘razor blade’ Rosamond living down the street. Love the cover art for the new album. Who’s the talented artist? The cover was drawn\nby ‘The head honcho’ ‘Numero uno’ ‘The big cheese’ ‘Our glorious leader’ ‘Das Kapitan’ ‘The chosen one’ ‘The golden goose’ ‘The idiot\nSavant’ ‘The one that walks among us’ otherwise known as Phil Privilege, he didn’t credit himself as he is very humble and shy. ‘Low\nBudget Rock ‘n’ Roll’ – Love it! If you were making a mixtape of low budget rock ‘n’ roll, which bands would be on it? Low budget rock n\nroll, the mix tape would include anyone who hasn’t got a pot to piss in but knows three chords and just wants to play rock n roll, you\nknow who you are. How do you think the government are doing, happy with the Tories still? The government are doing a marvellous\njob! Encouraging us all to return to old traditions like starvation, destitution, hopelessness, and despair. Let’s hope the guillotine makes\na resurgence too. You finally managed to make it into Europe for your Covid-postponed gigs. What were the best and worse things to\nhappen on the tour? Touring will always be fun, a bit more bureaucracy and self-inflicted bullshit to deal with but it’s soon forgotten\nwhen we get to play for our punk brothers and sisters in Europe. You’ve been playing live without Alex, is he still in the band? Yes, we\nare playing without our Mr Arson, like we mentioned earlier, life gets in the way of fun sometimes, they have to work and pay the rent in\nNorway too. We decided to play as four-piece for the time being, we want to play live no matter what! It was a difficult decision at first\nbut when we noticed how much more room there was in the van.....Yours sincerely Cyanide Pills\n\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Damaged Goods","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50490770751819,"sku":"2029809","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"LP - Black","offer_id":50490770948427,"sku":"2029810","price":22.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/cyanide_pills_soundtrack_to_the_new_cold_war_DG603_071bcf18_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727673698"},{"product_id":"still-bored","title":"Still Bored","description":"\u003cp\u003eLegends-in-their-own time Cyanide Pills are uber fun punk beamed straight from 1977.
