Interview with Keith Murray from We Are Scientists
Here's another new interview I did with Keith Murray from We Are Scientists for Strife Magazine. Their new album "Helter Seltzer" is pretty amazing.

New Interview with Rou Reynolds from Enter Shikari
This is my first interview on Strife Magazine which was pretty special for me, because it was another one with the lead singer of my favourite band Enter Shikari, Rou Reynolds (
you can read my first interview with him here). On one hand, that made writing the interview questions very easy because I know the band by heart, but on the other hand I was pressuring myself quite a bit. My absolute nightmare is writing an interview with questions like "Soo, your band name sounds so wicked. What does it mean?" (*YAWN*) or any other question the band is asked numerous times throughout their career.

So an interview with them can be one of the best in your writing "career"!

I'm quite satisfied with the result, but judge yourself. You can read the full thing below.
