While emo alt-rockers Bad Neighbour were in town on a national support run with California’s Badflower, vocalist and guitarist Cooper Riley swung by TPD HQ to give us the lowdown on the group’s upcoming debut full-length, ‘Millions’ (out September 20th). We chat about Coop’s nostalgic twang for country music, pulling together friends to smoke cigs and play riffs, writing an album through the isolation and loss of the pandemic, and the band’s rising tour profile over the last 12 months. We also gush about Microwave, La Dispute, Defeater, and much more.
