A good job is an Anti Job

Fresh from the DIY New York College Scene, The Anti Job have been entertaining all Jocks, Geeks, stoners, preppies, cheerleaders and even the janitor at a variety of venues close to their campus. Originally a pair, The Anti job have now required a drummer and on the back of this have released an excellent E.P self titled "We are the Anti Job"which is full of both lo-fi melodic charm and avante garde punk. It is refreshingly original and will no doubt be blaring out of the speakers of many a Students dorm and Professors office

Fresh from finishing thier summer exams, they very kindly dropped us a line to talk about their new EP and to put forward thier own version of Cockney Rhyming Slang!

So Anti Job, How are you all and what are you up to?

We are great! We are on summer break enjoying being away from the stress of school and what not. Right now all three of us are scattered all over the country with Amanda in Washington D.C, Martin in L.A, and Katie in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

Would you like to introduce yourselves?
We are the Anti-Job, We are a band. And we REALLY enjoy making music. Katie Troy plays the drums, Martin lopez-iu plays electric guitar and Amanda Jones plays acoustic and sings.

If you could describe your sound in one sentence, how would you do it?

We are an indie-avant-punk-psychedelic-clepto-rock band from New York

Tell us about our excellent EP?
There are five songs on the EP. its a collection of songs written from 2007-2009. We recorded it by ourselves in a diy, unpolished spirit. We talk about war, crime, long distance relationships, mental health and pandas...yes pandas

How can we get hold of a copy?

You can download a copy of the entire EP "We are the Anti-Job" on our myspace page June 25th for free. In addition we will be passing them out at shows and if you want a hard copy you can email us your mailing address to: antijob@rocketmail.com
I hear you guys are from New York, which coincidently is where my girlfriend originates from (she moved to England when she was 7) She still dreams about eating Pizza at a place called Johns, somewhere in Greenwich Village. Do any of you know it? where is the best Place to get Pizza near you? Yea we know it we go there all the time. We know John personally...actually we don't eat pizza....only guacamole.

Am I right in thinking you guys are still at college? in England we associate American colleges with Geeks and Jocks, what category do you fall into and are you members of a fraternity?

Yes we are still in College Let's see I think we transcend all definitions And noo we are not in any fraternities there are none at our college....we can out drink those bastards anyways

Have you ever heard of cockney rhyming slang?

Yea....kinda. All we can say is an expression when someone is in trouble. Um rob a bank your in barney. Haha we try.

Is there anything else you would like to share with us?

Martin will share his body. And hopefully we'll be seeing you at your local venue! Check out the EP!!!! "We are the Anti-Job" online and at our shows!....they will not be in stores soon.
