Chunk! No, Captain Chunk! are apparently taking a different direction with their next album following desire to not be a joke band anymore. Check out a full interview with HMV here and a snippet below after the jump.

You’re talking about going in a new direction, does that mean you’d like to break out of the cycle you’re currently in? Tour with different bands and get out of that niche?

“We want a new image. We want to do something else. Even if we have our own sound, we want to do something more, we want more credibility, we don’t want to be the joke band anymore. I can’t say too much yet, because there’s so much to do, but I’d like to tour with different bands and play to new crowds.”

Are there any bands you look to for inspiration in changes of direction?

“Bring Me The Horizon. They went from this deathcore band to being played on the main radio stations all over Europe. I feel like we’re looking credibility and to make music that could be heard by everyone. I’m certainly considering giving up on screaming on our next record.”
