"I've been in bands with Adrian for the last 22 years, my entire adult life. It's crazy to think that I'm not gonna be able to do this with him, but I'm very proud of him for making the decision that he needed to make for himself."  

Brompton from Action/Adventure stops by to chat about the band's upcoming headlining show at Bottom Lounge and the intense creative process behind their new record, 'Ever After'. The crew also discusses drummer Adrian leaving the band and shares thoughts on the current state of festival culture.  

Action/Adventure just went through the hardest six months of their career. Brompton joins the club to talk shit, clear the air, and unpack the intense creative process behind their upcoming record, 'Ever After'. We get into what it was like writing under extreme pressure, crying in vocal booths, and locking into the studio with Alan Day of Four Year Strong. Brompton also opens up about the bittersweet departure of longtime drummer Adrian, making their upcoming March 13 Bottom Lounge record release show alongside Rematch, Rarity, and Mimi At The Altar an emotional final performance. Plus, we discuss the current state of scene festivals. With When We Were Young heavily pivoting toward legacy acts, does the scene actually need the return of Warped Tour?   

"We wrote it pretty much all together... it was probably like the hardest six months of our career as a band, really put us through the wringer, but I'm super proud of it."

"I'm just happy that he's making what he feels like is the best decision for him. And obviously, it's just all love and support."

"I always kind of viewed When We Were Young as more of a legacy band thing... and Warped is more of a nostalgia thing, but they do have their finger more on the pulse of where the scene is going."
