Basically, it has become impossible for me to get through a day without listening to the mesmerizing 'She's So Mature'. In hopes that you might feel the same, it is our pleasure to introduce you to The Daily Pravda.

Pilgrims of Sound: We haven't seen you since August, how are things going for The Daily Pravda??
TDP: Wonderful! We had our record release party at the Pill for our debut EP "She's So Mature." We've been playing out just about every week for the past couple of months and are gearing up to write our full length album.

PS: How did The Daily Pravda form?
TDP: We came together in Boston a year ago. Ken (drums) and Dave (lead vocs/guitar) were old friends. Adam (lead guitar) answered our online ad and aced his audition. Lindsey (bass/backing vocs) replaced the original bass player, Joshh, shortly after she shared a bill with TDP back in May 2006.

PS: Describe your creative process.
TDP: Bad dreams, box wine, demo tapes, hours in the rehearsal space, frustration, more hours in the rehearsal space, more wine, more rehearsal, moment of clarity, finished product.

PS: On your MySpace, your music is described as such: "It's a soundtrack to the decadent, stretching beyond the angry inch of modern indie and into the stark Russian winterland." Your name, as well, is an obvious reference to Russian history. Can you explain the fascination there, and how that links with your music?
TDP: Like the real Daily Pravda back in the USSR, we're full of lies, half-truths and vodka.

PS: Can you assign any extreme labels to band members? Like, who's a neat freak, who's the partier, who writes in a dream journal, that sort of thing.
TDP: We're all very close, and wouldn't feel comfortable labeling each other.

PS: What would you be doing if you weren't in The Daily Pravda?
TDP: Spending a lot of time with our loved ones.

PS: If you had five minutes with Bernard Butler, what would you say?
TDP: Hey, how's it going? (and take it from there)

PS: Would you sell your soul to the devil for the perfect song?
TDP: No.

PS: Tell us your thoughts of the Boston music scene?
TDP: Boston's a huge college town, which is why it's unfortunate that so many venues are 21+. The people who really want to go out and see bands often can't because of these strict rules. Boston needs more all ages venues.

PS: Finally, how do you measure your success as a band, and what do you hope for the future of The Daily Pravda?
TDP: We hope the next 5 years will be as entertaining as the past year has been. We want to be doing a good deal of touring and writing songs; basically doing what we all love.
