During the conversation, the members revealed that they would choose "The Skye Boat Song", performed by a Scottish piper, to play at their own funerals, demonstrating the good humor that marks the entire interview.
When asked about the best opening band they had ever seen, they mentioned the Berlin group Das Beat, remembering a show held at Urban Spree, in Berlin.
The interview also covered musical references, favorite albums and unusual moments in the band's trajectory, which has been gaining ground in Montreal's independent scene thanks to the combination of post-punk, indie rock and sonic experiments.
The musicians took the opportunity to comment on the creation process of "Souvenir", describing the new work as an album that expands their influences without abandoning the identity built since their debut.
In addition to questions about music, the chat included light and relaxed themes, reinforcing the members' irreverent personality and bringing the band even closer to their fans.
With "Souvenir", Knitting hopes to consolidate its presence on the international alternative scene and expand the audience gained in recent years.
