The whole process, at least for me personally, was a challenge just to see if we still had it in us to write another record-if we can write good songs. How do you feel about the reaction of the fans a year and a half later?Ĭhris: I’m very happy about it. PRT: First of all, I wanted to ask, the last time we spoke was in 2019 and it was around the time of the release of ‘Everything is Fine’. We sat down virtually with Chris McGrath, singer and guitarist of Much The Same, to talk about that album. But when something is just too good, there is no holding it back.Īfter releasing an excellent new record in the form of ‘Everything Is Fine’ and a bunch of tours, Much The Same is back at it with a completely remixed and remastered version of their debut album, ‘Quitters Never Win,’ out now on vinyl for the first time thanks to a couple of incredible indie labels. The band broke up without having any clue of what the future was holding. Unfortunately, the scene kind of fall apart around the time ‘Survive’ was released with emo taking over, leaving punk rock behind in its dust. 2.Much The Same started in Chicago in 2001 under the name Don’t Look Down, went through a couple of line-up changes and then grew up quickly signing to A-F Records for their first full-length record and then to Nitro for ‘Survive’. * Julian Casablancas + The Voidz are set to play a residency at the newly renovated Murmrr Theatre in Brooklyn, New York Oct. 17 which will feature the band playing intimate acoustic sets with music from Siamese Dream, the same set played on the evening of July 27, 1993. 14, Billy Corgan and Chloe Mendel's Madame Zuzu's Tea Shop in Highland Park, Illinois will play host to a special Tower Records pop-up store, recreating the band's 1993 album release event.
