Bearing the terrible clichéd nature of this question, what do you reckon people will say you sound like?
Burn in Hell has been described as a strange carnival blend of Berlin cabaret, the Dead Brothers, Tim Burton, Yom Waits, the Marx Brothers, The Pogues and Chopin.
What’ve you got to sell CD-wise?
A brand new album titled Dr Awkward on CD and glorious gatefold vinyl, plus a few rare copies of our first album Spider Fight Cat Water Hate, plus t-shirts, lots of t-shirts.
What’s the strangest place you’ve ever played a gig, or made a recording?
We’ve played on beaches, on a boat, by the side of a lake, outside churches, in a convent, on a truck.. every day in Europe was pretty strange. And we record in a old secret vault.
Tell us about the last song you wrote.
It’s called Les Merabbits De Bretagne and it’s a hommage to Bretagne, mermaids and rabbits.
If your music was a chocolate bar, which one would it be, and why?
A snickers. Because it’s dark, a little sweet but has lots of nuts.
What advice would you give to bands that are new on the Melbourne music scene?
After one year, go play your music somewhere else. There’s too many bands here as it is. You’ll never know how good your band is until you play somewhere else.
Anything else to add?
You know life is good when you’re doing an interview from the south of France.
