Interview: Gilla Band discuss the construction of their pulverising new album Most Normal

The sequencing of the record is very tight, leaving hardly any silences. Is this to keep people locked in to the piece? To further the dream-like feeling? To make it act more like a DJ mix?

Alan: Yeah I think its to keep people locked in. The Talkies was the first time we really thought about transitions and sequencing. We wanted to do that again with this record. It felt good to have quick jolts between tracks without much rest. Earl Sweatshirt’s Some Rap Songs was definitely an influence for that. 

I love this Dublin quartet and they’re going from strength to strength with each album. I had some questions about their latest, Most Normal, and you can read their responses over on BPM.
