I never would have thought Post Malone could have been the guitarist for Crown The Empire.. That's crazy to me because I love both artists.

am i the only person that finds andys voice soothing when he talks???

I think that Crown the Empire has one of the most loyal fan bases of all and the reason so many people love them is because of exactly this, having and spreading a significant message.

Andy is so nice when you meet him, they're all absolute sweethearts

I love post malone I'm shook as if He Auditioned to be in the band

This is the most chill interview I've seen I love it

This is probably my favorite interview ever, it just felt so real ? idk... Nick is such a great interviewer and Andy is a solid dude, I love it

3:00 Post Malone reference

Crown The Empire: one of the realest fucking band I've come to love. The way described everything from the meaning to this album, the departure of Benn and the band & how they felt about everything. The fact that they are finally putting their heart and soul in this album has made me so much happier to be a loyal fan. A lot of people have already given them shit for their new sound, saying "ughhh go back to your old shit". I love all 3 albums, but the fact that this is them. this is the real crown the empire. I will forever treasure this album as one of the greats. I knew there was more to why Benn left and maybe that's how they realized that shit got real. But as always, I will forever respect Benn Suede and the rest of the boys. But even now, "fans" willl still talk shit about Retrograde and about Benn. Nonetheless, Retrograde will forever outrank Limitless, The Fallout & The Resistance: Rise Of The Runaways, not only for its sound, but for the realness of its true nature

Such a great interview Andy is such a nice genuine dude

But you didn't ask him what his pornstar name would be

I am absolutely in love with this interview. One, because of how long it was... Two, because Nick Major knows what the hell he's doing... And three, how much better I got to know Andy and parts of Crown the Empire from it. Rise of the Runaways is my favorite album of all time, and no album will ever hold such emotional meaning to me, but I'm so happy to know that Crown is finally happy with what they're doing. It will be hard to part with their amazing story telling (as someone who writes novels in their free time, I absolutely loved the story aspect of their albums), but I'm totally stoked to be on a journey with this band as they find themselves and put out music that makes them happy. They're undeniably talented and from what I can tell, down to earth as all hell now, and I'm so beyond stoked to witness this. When I'm older, I'll hand The Resistance to my kids and say, "Hey, this album inspired me to write (the novel I'm writing now), but the band showed me how to grow." Hats off Andy, Hayden, Brandon, Brent, and Dave.

I love how chill this interview is. It's not 100% scripted and it's amazing

I think Nick just took Bryan stars spot as best interviewer, since Bryan doesn't do it anymore.

So yeah to everyone who think's their selling out and hate Retrograde, you hate Crown since this album is the most personal one they've done. I'm proud of where they are and I think that it's really mature of Andy to realize at 22 years old what he has realized. Some people never really reach that point in their lives where they realize that what they're doing with their lives isn't the best but yeah Retrograde will definitely be on repeat for a couple months

I love this interview so much. Andy is such a solid dude. Thank you for this Nick!

I don't think the interviewer has enough fucking bracelets.

My favorite crown the empire interview ever

this interview was so real. good job

Loved this interview and this makes me 10x more excited to hear Retrograde!

There is one more day! Im so excited! im so proud of them all

Absolutely loved this interview💕

Best interview ever! I'm gonna listen to every crown th empire song rn

this was fun to watch. Thank you.

im so stoked for the album

Oh my lord I never knew how much I needed this in my life!

Loved this interview and Crown The Empire❤️

awesome interview I miss these types of interviews with bands

This was my favorite interview so far

He's so well spoken I love this interview

The whole post malone bit blew my mind and andy can gettt itt

this was such a good ass interview, props to Nick because it was just such a natural conversation flow.

Andy seems like a really cool guy I seen them live yesterday in Dallas they did awesome they are one of my new favorite bands

Omg Andy Leo 😍😍😍😍 can't wait for the new album and love nick major 😍😍

I discovered crown the empire in 2012 maybe 2013 reading a one direction fan fiction. The fallout was the very first song I heard, and it's really crazy to see how far they've come since I first started listening to them. they are really the only band that I've been following for that long. crazy shit. couldn't be prouder of them. I couldn't be more thankful for their music. truly helped me through some shit times.

wow, I love this. can't wait for retrograde.

I fucking love CTE. Nothing in this interview was forced, Andy is such a genuine guy. I'll forever appreciate their music and how real the members are. Sooo much love. ;-;

I love CTE. I met Andy in the crowd at Ufest, and then I met the entire band at Warped Tour, and they're so kind hearted and I have never found one song that I cannot jam to. I really hope I can see them and meet them again at Warped this year, they're my favorite.

THE ALBUM IS OUT TODAY!!! IM SO EXCITED FOR IT

30 minutes!!! Thank you Nick 😭😭😭

IF TWENTY ONE PILOTS & CROWN THE EMPIRE WENT ON TOUR WITH EACH OTHER I WOULD BUY TICKETS TO SEE THAT IN A HEARTBEAT

Their set was amazing yesterday in Cincinnati!!!!❤️💙

10/10!

im in love with andy leos voice

This interview made me miss all the bands.. warped tour '13 was lit

The whole band is so down to earth. Seem like guys I'd chill with any day of the week.

damn this is a surprisingly good interview, this was awesome

Andy is such a tight dude, I really would wanna have a jam session with him.

When Andy Leo says tøp's song is hard 😂😂😂

One of my favorite bands :)

Love this ❤️

i love your guys music till the end ♥and you guys to no homo you guys are funny and unique

yo hey this is the first actual interview of Nick's i've seen. dude i like the chill style. which is how an interview is supposed to be. i hope to get into the interviewing game as well and that's how my style is too. LUCKILY. i've never had an interview where i've forgotten to press record yet....(it'll happen at some point tho) however i did get Silverstein's new album name wrong in front of Shane Told's face like 7 times in our interview tho. (hella embarassing. thankfully shane told is nice as hell)

Andy such a chill dude so sick🔥🤘🏼

it's crazy to me that a ton of people think these guys aren't big when they had one of the largest crowds at warped. I go to every show when they come to Michigan. Love this band, love this interview!

i love this god bless

Dude I was so happy to see them July 21st

This brought back all of my MCR feels

The album is different but different in such a good way

Best interview ever🙌🏾... And can you PLEASE do a twenty-one-pilots and crown the empire tour. That will be so sick!!

I love Crown The Empire no matter whar

I cannot love Andy anymore, coolest dude in the world

Andy has such a nice soothing Voice.

HE WORE DAT SHIRT IN COLORADO!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

This is so cute omg 🙈💜

youtube never notifies me when videos are FIRST uploaded

my first concert was State Champs. I really wish it could have been been CTE or ADTR

Damn take me back to 2016

21 Pilots/Crown The Empire tour!!! That'd be a dream lineup!!!

Favourite band in the fucking world

TEXAS YAS!!

That conversation about twenty one pilots made me cry

I swear I've never laughed so hard then when he was explaining Mercury and did the nightmare before Christmas shit

does anyone know where I can hear mercury? I don't have target in my country and it's killing me...

O.M.G TØP AND CROWN NEED TO TOUR TOGETHER RIGHT NOW I WOULD CRY FOREVER HOLY SHIT MAKE THIS HAPPEN PLEASE

I high-fived Crown The Empire... Video is on my channel lol

Kinda funny that Nick is saying his first concert was The Used. Cause the first time I saw The Used was when I was introduced to CTE 😂

Bro dubstep is huge rn bigger then it ever has been

when they mentioned twenty one pilots i got super excited

This makes me feel a lot better about the album, I'm open to bands changing but what bothers me is when they seem to just bail on quality lyrics. This album has quality lyrics, even if its not metalcore like before. I love Zero, it's a killer song and the rest of the album is solid too.

I freaking died when he brought up 5sos 😂😂😂

duude i love Total War! is the best game ever ! especially Rome series !

ugh so sad.....I'm crying rn bc my mum won't let me go

My first concert was rascal flatts.... I'd be grateful for CTE as my first

i met them July 15th and said maybe 2 words. i was so nervous ;-;

Andy is cool as fuck

my friend matox says andy is his brother does anyone know if andy has a little brother?

the nightmare before Christmas thing killed me for some reason

13:49 I was def thinking about 21 pilots too

andy is literally me.

so twenty one pilots and crown the empire can we make it happen 😭😭 it'd be fucking great

Love this interview, Nick! Interview Sleeping With Sirens or From Ashes To New. I actually am personal friends with FATN's guitar player Lance. Definitely interview FATN. 💜

I can’t believe he had post Malone in his band

not a huge fan of nick on the snapchat but he is a really good interviewer gotta say lol

After seeing the recent events of what happened between crown and Dave, i'm starting to think Benn left for the same reasons. he probably wanted to write music whereas the rest of crown wanted to keep paying someone else to write...

GOD GOD SHIT SHIT FUCK THIS MORNING 3 HOURS SOMEONE HELP

fuck yeah cod dropshots!

Andy is so easy to listen to whattt okayy

at 15:48 his hands shadow kinda freaked me out

if crown the empire and twenty one pilots go on tour i will fucking die.
