Natural Bull Logic spent time with Emergenza explaining the large role irony and humour play in their song writing and performances. But don’t think they are a big joke. They’ve got serious sounds worth checking out. Don’t miss your opportunity to see them live at the Epsy basement on the 21st of June. Just be weary that they don’t try to convert you to the Church of the Spaghetti Monster.

CAN YOU DESCRIBE YOUR SOUND IN 3 WORDS?
We have many sounds, all of them different, and all of them rip offs of other bands. But we're the only band where you'll hear them all in one gig.

WHAT ARE YOUR NON-MUSICAL INTERESTS?
Beer, stilts, sheep and Robert Downey Jr. We generally spend most nights getting drunk and watching good (or hilariously bad) films.

WHAT EXACTLY ARE THE TENANTS OF THE CHURCH OF THE SPAGHETTI MONSTER?
This is a genuine made-up religion, but not made up by us. For more information, look it up on Wikipedia. For now, the main points are to be nice to each other, enjoy life, and thou shalt be shown his favour with the touch of his noodly appendage.

WHAT ROLE DOES IRONY PLAY IN YOUR SONG WRITING AND PERFORMANCES?
Irony plays the pivotal role of being an excuse for any offence we cause. If someone is offended, we say "don't worry, its a joke, we were being IRONICALLY sexist". In all seriousness, we write songs that should in no way be taken seriously. Almost everything we write is tongue in cheek. The songs are there to be enjoyed and mostly to be funny. People should hopefully realise this and see that we are having a laugh and playing songs for people to laugh at. It’s an act.

HOW DID YOU HEAR ABOUT EMERGENZA?
Through JJJ Unearthed

WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FORWARD TO THE MOST ABOUT THE FESTIVAL EXPERIENCE?
Playing some songs and rocking the fluff out. With all the power of the mighty sea otter!

WHAT DO YOU THINK WILL HELP YOU GET TO THE FINALS?
Well apart from Jack’s chiselled good looks, Andrew's boyish charm, and Dave's complete lack of facial hair, we will go to great lengths to entertain and please a crowd. We will get on our knees and please that crowd like our lives depend on it.
