We’ve finally reached the premiere of On The Mountain Season 2! Today, we’re celebrating with an interview of The Orwells, who soundtracked perhaps one of the most epic snowball fights we’ve ever been in. Seriously, there was snow, screaming, dancing and everything in between. Check out what they had to say about tour reading and The Walking Dead novels below.

Do you have a new year’s resolution?
Dominic: I’ve never done one of those. What could I want to change about my life? There’s nothing. I already have it all.
Mario: Next year, I’m not gonna fall for the boobies, because there’s more to girls than nice racks. Sometimes you just gotta bypass the boobs and go straight to the heart.
If you could redo the soundtrack to any movie what would it be?
Mario: The soundtrack to Orange County is pretty shitty.
Dominic: Oh, yeah it is.
Mario: Most of those songs are pretty terrible. If it had good songs it could really vamp it up.
Dominic: Talk to Colin Hanks, maybe we could do like, a re-cut.
What’s the best gift you ever received?
Mario: How about what I’m getting for this Christmas, what I want? I fucking told Santa himself. So this dude on this football team that I really like just got traded to this team that I don’t like. But his number was 69, so now I’m gonna take his number and I’m gonna get my own personalized jersey which is going to have my rap name on the back, which is MCMC.
Dominic: Good old PlayStation 4. I’ve had some good gifts, but this sticks out the most, it’s just so shocking, like who gives such a big gift?
Do you guys read anything while you’re on tour?
Mario: Sometimes I read comics, trade paperbacks, but you can read those in a day. Comics take me away from, like, uh. Like when people read books, like nerds and shit. Books do the same shit, but mine’s, like, got badass pictures in it.
Dominic, are you reading something now?
Mario: Minds, he’s reading minds.
Dominic: If I told you what I’m reading right now, he would make fun of me,
Mario: [laughs] Is it a fucking zombie book?
Dominic: There’s a series of The Walking Dead novels. There are comic books, too, but there are actual books that I think are better than the comics. It’s by Robert Kirkman. It’s by the creator of The Walking Dead, so it counts. On tour, though, I have a Kindle so I’ll read a bunch of shit.
Worst or best ‘80s trend?
Dominic: I heard people talk a lot of shit about leg warmers.
Mario: Worst? AIDS. That was a terrible trend.
Dominic: What people thought of it was bad, too. It ruined everything.
Mario: It ruined Queen.
Dominic: But for real, AIDS is terrible.
Mario: Best? I don’t know, like, synth noises?
Dominic: Fingerless gloves.
Mario: Flock of Seagulls. No, the best thing to come out of the ‘80s would be Vice City, I think, because there wouldn’t be a Vice City without the ‘80s.
Dominic: Vice City is not a trend.
