The guys were really friendly and excited to talk about their music and upcoming news, which fans who listen to post-hardcore and that genre of "harder" style music should take note of.
Of course, some of the news they gave me on the "DL" is now public knowledge, but hopefully all you SECRETS fans will enjoy reading nevertheless.

We all grew up in the music industry. This is our dream job. Pretty incredible to make a career of doing what we love.
What has been difficult to overcome along the road?

When you get together as a band and start playing music, it seems like a lot of fun, but you don't know what to expect before tour. There can be things about your fellow band members you don't know about and once you're on tour you might not like those things or be able to relate to them. It's rough being away from home and being on the road for so long.
We recently lost our bassist and vocalist (who we've replaced now with Aaron Melzer) which is really hard - we've all been super close.
What have been some of your favorite moments?
Europe, definitely. New York City. It's so unreal and like the movies - so cool to have that chance to see the world and doing what you love. Meeting people and kids with problems that you can relate to.
What are your guys' musical influences?
Death Cab for Cutie, Brand New, Bayside, Underoath, As Cities Burn, and A Day to Remember (post-hardcore scene).
If you could choose someone to collaborate with, who would it be?
Michael: Justin Bieber or Kanye West. Richard: Ben Gibbard. Aaron: Tom Denney
What can we expect from you in 2013?
A new album, a new look, and a lot of good sh*t.
