A Law Unto Themselves With SCOTTY MCLAUGHLIN From UNWRITTEN LAW

A Law Unto Themselves With SCOTTY MCLAUGHLIN From UNWRITTEN LAW

Punk rock mainstays Unwritten Law should have been given Australian citizenship by now.
Since first hitting our shores in 1996 the band have only toured the US more times, solidifying the love affair that has one so far as to Unwritten Law having one of their members live in this country full time.
Best known and loved as part of the Warped Tour Festivals, Unwritten Law have struck the perfect blending of punk and hardcore, almost making the form of music an art form.
And so it is Unwritten Law are returning to Australia once more, playing at Hotter Than Hell Festival dates as well as a select number of headlining gigs. Is Australia ready? We should be, but if there's one thing Unwritten Law have instilled in us over the years, it is to never expect anything from them.
The band's resident Aussie, guitarist Scotty McLaughlin joined HEAVY to talk more.
"This is the shortest tour we've done in ten years," he laughed. "Usually we do a month here, but this is the quickest little thing we've done in a long time."
We mention the Hotter Than Hell line up and the fact it almost has a Warped Tour kind of vibe about it.
"It does," he nodded. "I was looking up old tour posters from the 90s, and it's the same bands for the most part (laughs). It does have that old feel to it."
In the full interview Scotty talks more about Hotter Than Hell, playing with other bands like Regurgitator, Less Than Jake, Jebediah, and The Bennies, playing their Black album in full and problems that come with doing something like that, their own headlining shows and how they will be different to the festival shows, what to expect from Unwritten Law live and more.
