	NME Top 15 Bands To See At Reading	465 giorni fa
	This week's NME has placed Sergeant at number 6 in the top 15 bands to see at the Reading Festival. Who would have thought that in such a short space of time our favourite Fifers would have gone from being the top band to see at The Greenside Hotel, to one of the top bands to see at a festival that in its time has hosted such legends as Kings of Leon, Nirvana and, of course, Sea Sick Steve? A round of applause is justly deserved! Love Love Love... Tomas Bird

	sergeant salutes you..........	478 giorni fa
	Another press article hitting the nail on the head...... Sergeant salutes you By Margaret Chrystall Published: 07 August, 2008 WHEN T in the Park is just over your garden wall, it's maybe no wonder that a band like Sergeant has to travel a little further afield to get laid-back festival kicks. advertising It helped that the Glenrothes band this year played T. "It was brilliant," said frontman Nick Mercer – who along with Scott Duncan, Bill Anderson and Rory Buchanan make up the indie rock line-up. "We're only 10 minutes away from the actual site, so it's a bit like playing in your back garden. And I've been to the festival for the last eight years. Last year we played the T Break stage, this one we were on the Futures one, so there was a little bit of deja-vu, though it's a bigger stage. But the tent was just as full for us as it was last year." Belladrum also has a special place in the band's hearts. This weekend they find themselves on the Hothouse Stage. And though they're looking forward to playing their set, they're also keen to kick back as normal festival punters – just like they've done almost since Belladrum began. "We've been there for the last three or four years, just going as mates. "I think our best year was two years ago. Last year we played and so we didn't get to let our hair down as much. Two years ago there was a big group of us – about 40 people. "We think it's the best festival going. It's a little bit secret and it's small. It's not like T or Glastonbury where you have to keep your wits about you. There's a lot from the Fence Collective and people into underground Scottish stuff and a lot of that sort of music comes to Belladrum. It takes two minutes to pitch the tent and five minutes to walk to the site." The only difference between Bella and T Nick doesn't welcome, is having to shave a wee bit off the set time. "We're doing a half-hour set at Bella and it's a shame, cos the difference between half an hour and 35 minutes is amazing! With that extra five minutes, you could squeeze in two more songs and that can make it a completely different half-hour!" One surefire, guaranteed number will be single K-OK. Nick laughed: "That'll be in there. We have to play it now because it's one people know! But when we've just got half an hour we tend to come out with the fast-paced songs rather than slow it all down." In 2007 Sergeant signed a record contract with Mercury Records and since then it's been either all go or wating around for the next big thing – single, album, gig. Sergeant. Nick confesses he's a bit of a control freak, and likes to have everything sorted out in his mind beforehand. "We're learning all the time, though two years I'd have thought I knew everything. And two months ago, I thought I knew everything. But you just have to keep pushing yourself. When we write, you have to go somewhere you haven't been before with lyrics or whatever. The best thing about it is it's not like a job and you have to do something every day. It's up to you to change the way you feel about it. You choose the way you feel about it and you can go and play a half-hour set of new songs – and you can make it exciting. "We've been together for four years anyway. With this album we had to put a set of songs together that fitted together, and we have to do B sides and write all the time. But what we're writing now is quite different. And I don't know how bands get stuck playing the same thing. You need to make a slow progression so people don't know exactly what to expect. How can any band stay sounding the same after five albums, or whatever? It's all about the music and bands forget that sometimes. It's not about how skinny your jeans are – and all those bands get in the way of people who're trying to achieve something with their music. We've had the same haircuts and worn the same kind of clothes since we were 15 and 16." And Nick's not big on the whole cult of personality thing either. "I prefer it if people don't know all about me. You can have the biggest crisis in your personal life ever, and you should still get up there and perform on stage and do a show. Being in a band means lots of travelling and it's about waiting on your expectations. I've been doing that since I was 16, myself and my band. The only way to get over the boredom of the waiting around is by writing music, otherwise you just stand still for months and months, waiting for the next thing to happen. The not knowing is the most exciting part, but it's also the terrifying part – and it keeps you on edge. It's not a five-year job, it isn't safe forever. How you cope with the stress, the anxiety, confusion – I think that's the only reason a lot of bands turn to drugs. People want to be in bands so they can get out of their face, but that's not the reason bands take drugs, it's because they buckle under the pressure." So far, Sergeant are under no pressure to move away from their home turf – and Nick doesn't expect that to change. "I've got my friends and family and the Myspace stuff means you don't have to move away to London or something because your audience is at your fingertips. I'd much rather not hang around with other bands. I see myself as a down-to-earth person, practising and just being yourself rather than what someone tells you to be." And with legends like producer John Leckie and music guru Alan McGee weighing in to rate Sergeant, Nick has his typical common-sense approach. "What Alan said about this band is what we think in our minds. We think we're the best band that ever lived," laughed Nick. "And that attitude pushes you forward. But what he said, I was humbled by it." * Sergeant play at the Belladrum Festival Hothouse Stage on Saturday.
