Living
a double life isn't easy, according to Parkway Drive's mainman
Winston McCall. "I work in a cafe making coffees and sandwiches,
Jeff works at a video store, and Ben makes pizzas - and they're
all morning jobs too! So you're staying up late every night
doing a show, then you get about two hours of sleep, and you
got to get up for normal work the next day. It's really weird..."
After
a loud and fairly un-subtle first record, Gyroscope jetted
off to the US to record the follow-up with uber-producer Mark
Trombino (Jimmy Eat World, Blink-182)... A few months later
Gyroscope emerged with an album that will probably shock fans.
Screams made way for soaring, delicate harmonies, coarse power-chords
for intricate song-structure. After the relative success of
the debut, the band no longer has anything to prove, and so
they've toned down the aggression and become a settled song-writing
outfit.
