According to their guitarist Jack Barakat, this week’s Kerrang! coverstars, All Time Low, are the 21st Century’s answer to Motley Crue.However, we really can’t see the similarities between the toilet humour loving Anglo-American pop-punkers and the Los Angeles hair-metallers who were notorious for their hard-partying lifestyle (which included stints of drug addiction, groupies and numerous brushes with the law). Can you?Nevertheless, All Time Low give us a personal insight into their tour bus hell-raising in this week’s Kerrang! magazine.WHAT IS A TYPLICAL NIGHT OUT LIKE WITH ALL TIME LOW?ALEX GASKARTH (GUITAR/VOCALS): “Picture this: we’re standing there looking charming and elegant, a vision of class. We’ll have a lady on each arm... No, we tend, really, to have more parties on our bus than anything else. There’s a lot of loud music, some drinks for everyone and we ban awkwardness. There’s no awkwardness anywhere.” RIAN DAWSON (DRUMS): “Alex tends to DJ, which is awesome. The problem is that every party on the bus always starts off with all the girls on one side and all the boys on the other. It’s like a high school dance. Then Jack will start shaking his booty and everyone joins in.”ALEX: “Rian will be in the corner reading the Twilight series, crying because he can’t have the love they share in that book.”RIAN: “We have more fun than most bands in the world.”ALEX: “Every time we tour with another band, they always say, ‘This is crazy! You guys are awesome’.”JACK BARAKAT (GUITAR/VOCALS): “It’s all the pills... Actually I wish we did do drugs but we’re not cool enough. We’re not rock ‘n’ roll enough to do drugs.”ARE YOU GOOD DRUNKS?JACK: “Whenever we get drunk we always break stuff. We like to be destructive.”ALEX: “We do a lot of activities when we’re drunk, that’s for sure. Drunken bowling was fun.”JACK: “We steal a lot of parking cones.”RIAN: “The problem is, that’s our most badass thing. Other bands are doing blow off some chick’s tits and we’re stealing parking cones from outside the venue.”ALEX: “It’s like we’re all 15-year-old kids. We’re really fucking with authority with our parking cone crime wave.”RIAN: “We really suck. We’re so lame.”JACK: “What do you mean? We’re the Motley Crue of our generation!”ALEX: “We’re not. We’re the Jonas Brothers.”CAN YOU TAKE YOUR BOOZE, THEN?ALEX: “I’m what an outsider would call a war veteran.”RIAN: “Jack and Alex have been drinking since they were about seven, so they’ve built up a tolerance.”JACK: “When we go to the UK we always hang out after the show because there are always club nights. We’ll have a couple of beers and feel drunk and everyone is like, ‘You pussies! You fucking pussies!’.”RIAN: “That’s true. There’s always someone yelling ‘pussy’ at us in the UK. You’ll be at breakfast having an orange juice and someone will walk past with a beer and shout, ‘Pussy!’.”For the full interview, be sure to pick up a copy of this week’s Kerrang! magazine (on sale now).
