Recently we chatted to cLOSERS, the punk-rock quartet released their latest EP, 'cLOSERS or LOSERS' in January and were up for a quick word with us about it and themselves. 

1 Who are cLOSERS?

We're just four guys with a passion, and we're trying to do our best to realise the dream of making this passion becoming our lives. We really love music, and we do our best to improve on our own musical work every day.

2 You've recently released a new EP, care to indulge?

'cLOSERS or LOSERS' was released in January, and it's our first EP. We're really glad of the goals we reached with this album. All the seven songs have been broadcasted several times by web radios in UK and US, having good reviews and appreciation from the people they reached. It's such a great thing for us, and we're proud of our work, first of all because it mirrors what we wanted to express and what we wanted to tell everyone at the time we were working on it.

3 Who are your biggest inspiration?

We're all inspired by those bands which were our teenage myths, you know, Blink 182, Green Day, The Offspring, NOFX, New Found Glory, and so on. By now, many years have passed, and everyone of us has his own favourite bands and musician, but we still have all that pop-punk rock bands as milestones of our music inspiration.

4 Where do you see yourselves in 5 years time?

Well, we hope you can see us sharing worldwide stages with great rock bands, playing all around the globe and still working hard, every day, on our own music and dreams!

5 What's next for cLOSERS?

New stuff's almost ready, we're collaborating with ScreamLite Records in the near future, and it's such a big deal for us. All the new songs are going to be very different from the ones of 'cLOSERS or LOSERS', but we can't reveal nothing in advance because we want to fix on them the best as we can. Hope you'll enjoy them!

Big thanks to cLOSERS for the interview.
