Yeah, I know, I've been posting more about my fanzine lately than anything else. I'll try to do a personal one like Groon and Anna did next up. But obviously, this being a music site, I guess interviews with good bands are something that people like to read. And of course I'm a bit proud of all this as well, but I do think that everyone likes to read more about a band if they know them, or want to get to know a band if they find out that they like them. Obviously, that's why I do the interviews, so that people can read new and fun stuff about bands who make good music.
So, with that minor introduction, here is the interview I did with Manchester electro-punk band The Whip! http://ikrszine.blogspot.com/2008/07/interview-with-manchester-band-whip.html
It's divided in two parts because otherwise the post would've been too long. Hope everyone enjoys it. I'm gonna see them Friday, pretty stoked, during Rauw, which is a night filled with DJ-sets and some bands, set up by Dutch DJ Joost van Bellen. And The Whip will be playing that night, gonna be fun. Here's the song I'm looking most forward to:

I saw them live some time ago, they were GOOD. Trash was like an out of body dance experience!
Nice one, good to learn more about their past and present. He says "yeah" a lot, doesn't he hehe :)
Thanks for posting it! And I like to read interviews when I fancy the interviewer, the interviewee, and the way the interview unfolds. So there :)

Thanks Augusts and Anna!
Well, that's what you get with phone interviews I guess, I tend to need a word like that to get going as well. Normally I would've brushed some out, but this is basically the original transcript. But after the yeah's usually an interesting answer follows. :)
Good to hear they were good live. Going tonight, w00t!

Am I disconnected or what? I've never of the Whip before. Excellent work, one can tell you've prepared your interview quite extensively. Dank je wel.
