When Alexisonfire rolled into London earlier this month as the main event of this year’s Eastpak Antidote Tour, we were pretty damn keen to pin them down for an interview. So keen in fact, we busted down to meet them before the show without even going home to change out of our office clothes first. Oops.

It didn’t phase Alexisonfire’s tubthumber, Jordan “Ratbeard” Hastings, though. He just wanted to talk about Big Trouble in Little China, and why frontman George Pettit thinks he’s some kind of strongman.

Incidentally, we still feel a bit grubby here at Thrash Hits after saying we’re on the side of Lo-Pan. We actually cussed out Kurt Russell – Snake motherfucking Pliskin – when we did so. What were we thinking?!?!?!?
