Hope Is Noise are a cork based alternative rock band who are celebrating their 10th year as Hope Is Noise. The lads popped in to discuss all aspects of being in Hope Is Noise. Their attitude to songwriting, the reasons why they have stayed as the same four piece for all this time, people who influenced them along the way and what makes them continue to write and perform and be in a band. They also played a couple of acoustic tunes (No Stretchmarks at 15.29) and some wonderful accapella stuff as well as I Tell Lies..Just Not to You (1.33.05 to the end). Theres a lot of piss taking and laughs along the way. And we may wander off course into random waffle from now and again. All good stuff though. Great bunch of lads.
