Nick: How long had you guys been playing together as a band before the release of The Watcher?

Rogues: “Mark, Robert and Bradley were together for 4 months before The Watcher was released. Jonathan joined in a little over a year ago.”

N: You describe that EP as “a tale of human consciousness and recognition of one’s own deeds”, can you elaborate on that concept?

R: “It’s not a story, but our observations on people around us and the situations that they are going through. For example, Lesser Grandstander being about someone we knew that killed his family. That is what we do; tell people’s stories.”

R: “The San Francisco show was lit! We also really enjoyed Seattle.”

N: How did the recording process go for this new EP?

R: “The addition of Jonathan Means definitely made our sound more sophisticated and added aptitude.
