Pictures&#8217; &#8216;Hangover Part 3&#8217; on May 20, 2013 in Westwood, California.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>On hearing the name Hanson, most people will peppily reply by humming a quick chorus of MMMBop. But there\u2019s more to the band of brothers \u2014 Isaac, Taylor and Zac \u2014 than long flowing locks and that hit released back in 1997.<\/p>\n<p>A lot\u2019s changed for Hanson since MMMBop.\u00a0 They have 10 kids between them, their own label, they\u2019ve released a beer called MMMHops and sold 16 million albums worldwide.<\/p>\n<p>Tut tut to those of you who had them down as one-hit wonders.<\/p>\n<p>The cherubic trio are celebrating their 21st anniversary as a band with the release of their sixth studio album, Anthem, which includes trademark soulful pop\/rock tracks like Get the Girl Back.<\/p>\n<p>Metro chats with the band\u2019s oldest member, Isaac, on the run-up to their six-month world tour. Isaac spills about brotherly bickering, the industry\u2019s failings and not giving in to groupie temptation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Has making your new album been easier than making a marriage work?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I think it\u2019s very similar to making a marriage work. It\u2019s probably more complicated because there are three people involved. Going into this album we had to make some real adjustments.<\/p>\n<p>We had been hitting the ground pretty hard after touring for the previous two years.<\/p>\n<p><strong>It\u2019s been publicized that the album nearly didn\u2019t happen due to disagreements. Were you working too hard?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It was part of it. We had a different plan for the record \u2014 it was much more 2013. The current way of looking at music is just not working for the whole business and nobody is willing to reassess that.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What did you want to do differently?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We wanted to make it an ongoing musical experience but I\u2019ll leave it at that. We\u2019re hoping that we\u2019ll look at that project again in the future.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Who normally incites the arguments?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>(Laughs) All of us are perfectly willing to cause trouble. I will say I have a tendency to play devil\u2019s advocate quite a lot, so that keeps me in the mix.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What happened during the recording of Anthem?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The initial blowout was because we were working on our fan club EP that we release every single year and we had been up really, really late a lot of nights in a row. People were stressed about what was coming and we were working on the song Tonight at about 2 a.m. We were frustrated with the process and I said something to Zac, Zac said something to me and so on. It ended with a few fists being thrown and people walking out.<\/p>\n<p>H<strong>as your enthusiasm for music waned at all since you first started?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>My enthusiasm for music has never waned because I think music is the ultimate expression of fear, joy, sadness and anger \u2014 it\u2019s a great healer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is it the industry that\u2019s at fault?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The music business is messed up. I compare the music business to the whaling industry. The music business is still trying to sell blubber to people who want kerosene.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Are artists too dependent on the label?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Artists in so many cases become very insecure and need handlers to go through life because they allow themselves to perpetuate their own insecurity.<\/p>\n<p><em>Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/metronews.ca\/scene\/784585\/isaac-from-hanson-talks-problems-recording-new-album-and-the-state-of-the-music-industry\/#\" target=\"_blank\">Metro<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>September 3, 2013 by Richard Peckett On hearing the name Hanson, most people will peppily reply by humming a quick chorus of MMMBop.
