The Coral chat to I Like Music


ILM: Good to have friends like Noel then.

JAMES: Yeah.

ILM: Most of the album was recorded in Noel's barn, with producer Craig Silvey. What have you learned both from Noel and Craig and Ian Broudie for that matter?

JAMES: Yeah you learn different things from different people and add it to your own opinions really. Craig's more into the sound of the record and we learned loads about arrangements from Brodie; but you learn different stuff all the time from loads of people.

ILM: So it's like layering what you know already and building on it?

JAMES: Yeah, you've jut got to be open to different stuff.

ILM: You recorded most of it live and it's the strongest collection of songs you've made. Are you constantly searching for the holy grail that is the perfect song?

JAMES: Yeah, you're always looking to write the perfect set of songs really. I'm looking for that one day.

ILM: Well you're definitely on the right track. You formed in 96 and collectively found it hard when Guitarist Bill Ryder-Jones quit touring with the band in the summer of 2005 to deal with some personal problems. You then smoked loadsa weed and lost it a bit - How have you recovered? You sound invigorated. And Bill's back now isn't he? Must be good to be a unit again?

It makes me laugh and it makes my cry and it gets me out of a stress if I’m in a stress, and, if I’m in a good place then it will make me in a better place. It’s all about the emotion, it’s all about the feeling where music takes you to and what affect it has on you.
