Winston says, "what about our own festival". The foreshadowing to Parkwaves!

[@JohnDoe-mv2be]

Dude's so humble. Parkway are HUGE but he's just so down to earth and that's awesome. He was the same when I met him 12 years ago, threw a 50 in their tip jar and he shook my hand and we talked for a bit.

[@SimmoSups]

The ultimate Ozzy colab. Nath and Johnny with the big man Winston. This is massive guys. Can't wait to watch the interview.

[@nathandjohnny]

Thanks legend!

[@beansburton]

I literally can't describe how important and relvavent this interview is. Good job guys and thank you Winston for taking the time to talk about very real concepts on how creativity plays on your real life. Honestly this is one of the greatest interviews I've ever seen. Keep going my dudes. Love you and love Parkway. Get it.

[@nathandjohnny]

Thank you so much for the kind words! Appreciate you 💙🙏🏽

[@downsouth5447]

Good things take time. Darker Still is a true masterpiece.

[@vaderfreya]

I could listen to Winston talking for hours!! He needs a sleep podcast 😅 Great interview guys!!

[@MrHoffmeyer2009]

Man, he was so chill in this interview and his answers were great AND detailed. Also, your interview skills have improved tenfold. Awesome stuff, guys.

[@anoceanbetweenus89]

I’ve not been the biggest can’t of some of their last two albums, admittedly, but I can’t help but be so happy and proud of these guys. Metalcore legends in the scene and not they are branching out and becoming iconic in other ways, so cool. Winston has always been one of my absolute favorite metalcore vocalist. His lyrics and the sheer power and emotion that you can feel are unmatchable.

[@ian3314]

This is soo badass. I would be soo nervous. He seems so chill and I think everyone being Aussie def helped. Great interview Nathan and Johnny, and thanks Winston we appreciate it.

[@Brandon1984mn]

Great album! Longtime Parkway fan. Awesome interview, cheers from Minnesota 🤘

[@BlenderisedMind]

Guys, this was so awesome! What a great interview. Winston seems like such a laid back, fun guy to hang out with. So awesome. Thank you for sharing this! 😊

[@nathandjohnny]

Thank you!

[@koenv306]

Sweeeeet! It's great to see how relaxed Winston is with the two of you (as with every artist). Great interview and Winston seems like a super chill dude!

[@nathandjohnny]

🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@l.b.7413]

Oh this is great ! Happy for you guys ! I can't wait to watch it 😊

[@nathandjohnny]

Thanks!

[@seminolevessicles]

HOLY SHIT, look whos famous and getting all the interviews all a sudden?!

[@nathandjohnny]

We have been extremely lucky haha

[@rhym7529]

THIS IS HUGE ! The legend is here finally :D

[@gianlucakastner]

This was probably one of the best interviews I have ever watched! Time just flew by honestly. Can’t wait to hear the new PWD album. Keep rocking & stay safe lads, greetings from Austria 🤘🏼

[@nathandjohnny]

This honestly means so much, thank you 🙏🏽

[@jessicamink7209]

Thanks for doing the Parkway Drive interview! It was a complete banger! Cheers! 🍻

[@nathandjohnny]

Thank you, glad you enjoyed!

[@johnnymetalcore5608]

Love Winston, he’s a ledge 🔥 #teampwd

[@D__Sync]

Oh hell yeah! Love this interview! Winston is a phenomenal vocalist and seems like such a chill guy and really down to earth!

[@nathandjohnny]

Can confirm!

[@simterio3077]

Thats what byron bay does to you!!

[@WHOREHAMMER_OFFICIAL]

Winston is one of my favorite vocalist. THANK YOU GUYS, this was amazing

[@nathandjohnny]

Our pleasure 🙌🏼

[@Joseph-R]

As much as I'm not a fan of their newer music, I will always be a fan of the dudes making the music. Always been down to earth and humble guys.

[@worduser899]

I don't find their music nowadays to be particularly good, but Winston has done some of the craziest, best vocals on so many awesome songs. Parkway Drive's best music is so good it's absolutely timeless.

[@CylonModel2]

This is absolutely amazing guys! Love your interview series and this is the best one. Smashed it! Can’t wait to see PWD play the new tunes in the UK in a month.

[@nathandjohnny]

Appreciate you!

[@K1NGD0M]

SO EXCITED FOR THIS ONE!!!

[@jerssjyo9u184]

Love your poetry Winston. You should put "Crushed" as a bonus track at the end of the new album as an anthem for the clown show that went down the past couple of years.

[@bevbash68]

OH GODDDDDDDD! I can't waaaaaaiiiiiiit! You're so perfect for this, it's just ........perfect x

[@nathandjohnny]

🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@K1NGD0M]

Winston is such a vibe, I absolutely loved his energy and I cannot wait to listen to the album!!!

[@backfaced]

This was so damn sick! But I wished you guys talked about their promotion with NRL and playing at the finals. I feel that is a huge recognition for the genre and it would have been awesome to hear Winston's perspective of this

[@tunelowdieslow]

I was keen to see if this got mentioned. Loving seeing Parkway and the NRL worlds come together for me, finally.

[@grub9465]

If someone told me in grade 12, 2006 that the jocks would have Parkway playing at their NRL grand final in 2022 I would have never believed it 😅 amazing

[@justinpenrod88]

Stoked! Notifications are set🤘🏻

[@BlockbusterKnight]

My favorite reactors with my my favorite frontman… legendary fellas! Loved every second. Happy you guys actually had different questions for Winston. I’m so ready for this album!

[@nathandjohnny]

Thanks so much legend 🙏🏽

[@l.b.7413]

That was awesome ! And Winston is a really nice guy ❤️

[@nathandjohnny]

He is!

[@wormierdock1085]

[@pedroferreira3540]

Hugeeeeeee!! Awesome interview and opportunity for both of you. Good job guys

[@nathandjohnny]

[@ragingstorm79]

Another day, another cracking interview, really happy for you guys and the inroads you're making. I can only imagine what you're trying to organise for Good things!

[@nathandjohnny]

Cheers mate! We’re working on it haha

[@michaelsteel1638]

Our pleasure, thank you for watching!

[@laurajade]

Fricken AWESOME

[@TheCodysmafield]

These Aussie boys are 🔥🔥

[@92SynysterShadows]

You guys are living my dream. I've always wanted to do a reaction/interview channel for music and wrestling but have never had the confidence to do it. Feels like I'm living vicariously through you guys at this point 🤣 keep up the great work, easily the best reaction channel I watch 👌

[@nathandjohnny]

Appreciate you! And hey, just go for it!

[@ashriquelmy9566]

What an amazing human!!!! Great interview guys!!!

[@nathandjohnny]

Thank you! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@aycaramba4910]

Oh wow, that's huge! 👍🏻

[@EDITS_SC]

Jim Gray from Caligula's Horse another amazing Australian band has a wonderful voice. Him an Winston singing together would be amazing.

[@nathandjohnny]

True!

[@PiggyGuru123]

You're getting some big names and doing some good interviews, fair play guys and damn what a lovely guy he seems

[@nathandjohnny]

Thanks mate, yeah he is an absolute gentleman

[@ilc-nl3yy]

Darker Still is an amazing track

[@patfix]

Such a nice guy man. Don't like the new pwd stuff, but at least they're staying true to themselves. Wish them all the success in the world.

[@Brezy._]

Needed some comfier seats haha

[@sebastienpoli1204]

Winston is the GOAT

[@AndrewSmith-ub6xs]

just one point regarding clean singing within Parkway Drive around the 13:30 mark, this album isnt the first time! Go back and listen to Flesh, Bone, and Weakness from their 2004 EP! I got to see them on east coast aus. early 2005 BEFORE Killing With A Smile and it WAS Winston doing that live at the time.. it was a late song in their early sets, so he wanted to scream but was obviously having trouble.

[@nathandjohnny]

On the recording it was the current bass player though, right?

[@AndrewSmith-ub6xs]

@@nathandjohnny I think this was even before Pie, they had yet to tour Europe at all. I believe it was THAT bass player on the recordings, however. at the show I went to, I can confirm it was Winston doing that excited, high-range yell he does, right on that vocal edge before one of his styles of screams.

[@archiviewer92]

Loved this interview fellas but it was missing one massive question. When is Australia getting a tour?? We had them for good things in 2019 and then day and knight gig for New Years but when is the rest of Australia getting their a a headlining tour with some crazy supports like we are seeing in US and Europe

[@nathandjohnny]

Not sure he would have answered that haha

[@archiviewer92]

@@nathandjohnny I been itching to see them live again. Hope we get something soon but I also know they are burning the candles. It’s unbelievable what they’ve managed to achieve for a couple of boys from Byron

[@riccardo_masut]

❤️

[@odhranfeeney09]

They only use fire in their shows because Winston gets a little chilly.

[@anasasis98]

missing the old surfer boys...

[@thetravellershub]

Gandalf survived a Balrog. Dumbledore couldn’t even survive Snape

[@nathandjohnny]

OH SHIT!

[@clausgreenpetersen7076]

Great fucking interview. 666 Horns!

[@thekingofinsane]

Amazing interview, and Winston seems like such a lovely bloke. Though he lost me when he chose Dumbledore over Gandalf. I'm done. :( lol

[@nathandjohnny]

They say don’t meet your heroes… maybe just don’t ask them that question haha

[@thekingofinsane]

@@nathandjohnny Definitey not. I’m not sure I could handle the heartbreak of my heroes choosing such a horrible person over the badass that is Gandalf 😂 Cheers for replying though lads, this video is quite old now so to come back and reply takes a lot of dedication. Love your channel and all the content 👍

[@lighthousemusic9436]

Awesome, I missed seeing people actually sit down and chat with artists and not have video calls as the only option. 🍻

[@nathandjohnny]

We have a few in person ones and more coming up!

[@beachamj]

Parkway is still my favourite band of all time for nostalgia sake of dont close your eyes, killing with a smile, and horizons, being based only an hour away and the lads are still cool as shit but fuck me I just can not get into the past 4 albums save a token banger here and there. It's their band and they can do what they want and I accept bands grow older and change their style but for fuuuuck. Sucks.

[@joelvegter8578]

I don't like the Metallica, soulfly, and rammstein rip off's they do... not.cool

[@RedNeckerboyz26]

So awesome you guys had him. Love to hear this guy talk.

[@nathandjohnny]

Thanks!

[@sampfitzner4104]

this is so sick, can’t wait to watch also new DAYSEEKER! 🤞🏻🤌🏻

On its way!
