D-A-D

Rocking My Day Away

 

DENMARK ROCKERS D-A-D HIT PAY DIRT WITH A THE SINGLE SLEEPING MY DAY AWAY IN THE LATE 80'S, AND ALWAYS SEEMED TO BE ONE OF THE MOST UNDERATED BANDS OF THE TIME. BUT BACK AT HOME THEY NEVER STOPPED ROCKING, AND CONTINUE TO TOP THE CHARTS EVERY SINGLE ALBUM THEY PRODUCE. WITH A NEW ALBUM OUT NEXT YEAR AND A NEW DISTRIBUTOR, HOPEFULLY WE'LL SEE D-A-D GET THEIR DESERVED WORLDWIDE.

April 2007

FIRST OFF – HOW ARE YOU GUYS AND WHATS IN THE WORKS FOR YOU AT THE MOMENT?
We just finished 14 tracks. now it´s time for a bunch of festivals. Hopefully new album in early 2008.


 

ITS GOOD TO SEE YOU GUYS BACK INTO THE ROCK, LAST YEARS ALBUM SCARE YOURSELF WAS GREAT, AND MOST AGREED?
Definetely YESS..!

YOU GUYS STILL TOP THE CHARTS IN DENMARK, RIGHT?
Yes, whenever we have a new release, which is every second year.

WELL, DENMARK HAS A BETTER MUSIC SCENE THAN MOST OF THE WORLD THEN?
That´s hard to say. I personally love the Finnish rock scene.

YOU GUYS HAVE MANAGED TO REMAIN WITH ALMOST THE COMPLETE CLASSIC LINE-UP, ALL THESE YEARS LATER, WHATS YOUR SECRET?
Good comradeship. and maybe two loving brothers in the band (smiles).

ONE OF THE MOST DISTINCTIVE THINGS ABOUT D-A-D HAS ALWAYS BEEN JACOB’S GUITAR. IN THE SEA OF 80’S DISTORTION DRENCHED VAN HALEN CLONES, WHAT GAVE YOU THE INSPIRATION TO TRY SUCH A SMOOTH TONE?
I must have been the early punk roots, which turned into the country twang thing.

 

I STILL REMEMBER WHEN SLEEPING THE DAY AWAY CAME OUT, YOU GUYS SEEMED REAL AND WEREN’T ALL GLAMMED UP AND CHEESY LIKE THE HAIR BANDS, YOU GUYS REALLY ROCKED?
Thank you so much. I guess we were different.  

Jacob and his country twang

I STILL LOVE THAT SONG, (I OFTEN SLEEP THE DAY AWAY!)
So do I!

SO YOU GUYS SEEM VERY BUSY THESE DAYS, YOU'RE PLAYINGTHE BIG HILEROD OPEN AIR CONCERT, RIGHT?
Yes , we´ll do it later this year, it´s still freezing out there!

LOOKING AT YOUR SCHEDULE, IT SEEMS LIKE YOU WONT BE GETTING A REST ANYTIME SOON EITHER?
Well, thank God .

YOU GUYS HAD A GREAT LIVE DVD OUT WITH THE CD LAST YEAR AS WELL?
Yes. It worked out great.

NOW A NEW ALBUM IS ON THE WAY ALREADY!??
Well, next year probably. right now we´re still gathering material

WHEN CAN WE EXPECT IT?
Hopefully, early 2008.

SO HOW IS IT SOUNDING SO FAR?
Well, we are taking some chances this time around. But I think
it will be fantastic!

 
Stigge and his, well...rocket?

IT TOOK A LONG TIME FOR THE LAST ONE TO GET OUT OF DENMARK; DO YOU ANTICIPATE SIMILAR PROBLEMS AGAIN?
We are looking for a company to distribute the album.

Unfortunately "Sanctuary" folded in germany , so we will be needing a company to distribute the album.

Anyone out there?? (laughs)

I ALWAYS THOUGHT YOU GUYS WERE VERY UNDERATED (OUT OF DENMARK , IM GLAD TO SEE YOU’RE NOT GIVING UP ANY TIME SOON?

No ,we  refuse to give up!

AND FINALLY, ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE TO ADD

I guess we've all around it for now.
    
WELL ITS BEEN GREAT TALKING, GOOD LUCK WITH THE FUTURE AND HOPEFULLY WE’LL TALK AGAIN SOON?

Hopefully we´ll talk again soon. A bit longer!
