10 things we learned about Hopeless' new signing With Confidence

Yesterday, Australian pop-punks With Confidence took over the Hopeless Records page to do a live Q&A. Between the cute dogs and arguments about Blink-182 and Green Day (“Don’t make me choose, guys!”), we learned quite a bit:

 

They dig a lot of bands in our scene.

Neck Deep, PVRIS, Knuckle Puck, State Champs, Mayday Parade and Bring Me The Horizon, just to name a few.

 

They're “working on” coming to a lot of places (Japan, U.S. AND U.K.) and really want to do Warped.

*Shifty eyes* (Also, is it March 22nd yet?)

 

Luke Rockets (guitar) once bought a Macbook off Jonny Craig.

This wasn’t really explained… but still, pretty cool.

 

They did an All Time Low/Blink-182 mashup a longgggg time ago and used to play “Weightless” live.

YouTube doesn’t lie, boys.

 

Josh Brozzesi (drums) can do backflips.

Except, apparently, when they're all a lil' drunk on a beach. Then he can only do four. It's okay, Josh.

 

The inspiration for their band name came from the Dangerous Summer song “Of Confidence.”

I'm oh so sick of everything you wrote/I'll hold you true to every breath that we spoke of in this room.

 

They don't know if Baltimore is a state or a city.

According to them, it’s the “All Time Low state.” I mean, are they wrong?

 

Jayden Seeley (bass, vocals) has had Blurryface on repeat lately.

Then there was light discussion of covering Twenty One Pilots and we are here for it.

 

When asked what their new favorite albums of 2016 are, Josh said he’s been rockin' to the new Somos record.

Keepin’ it tight with other Hopeless homies.

 

Luke doesn't like orange Skittles so he's basically the antichrist.

Don’t question us on this.
