Help...

What inspired them to play doom metal?

Why they decided to reunite after over 10 years?

Why people consider them a "pro-Christian" or "spiritual" band because of their lyrics?

Which Trouble album is his favorite?

Why they decided to record a cover of Cream on their debut?

What about his isde project Wet Animal?
 
There's only one real Trouble ;)

If I'm correct the last album dates back to '95, there also were some talkings of an album in 2003 but I think that never was released??

What to expect from a new Trouble album? Early Trouble albums were very Doom inspired, while later are more Stoner, how will the new material fit in ?

Will you be touring soon ? (and where?)

Trouble is quit a big name in "true" Metal scene, amongst bands like Manilla Road, Witchfinder General, Brocas Helm, etc... are you aware you are such a big name in that scene?

Do you follow the current Doom-Metal scene? Lots of doom bands are heavely influenced by Trouble.
 
I haven't done much research into what these guys are up to now but:

Are they (you) still with Metal Blade?

Any early memories from being in the band on tour?

What goes on in the songwriting process for them? (does 1 guy write? 1 guy writes music, other writes lyrics..... first melody then song, etc.?)
 
According to Metal Arcives, there was supposed to be a 2005 release of "Simple Mind Condition", but now it's been put on hold until 2007. What's the hold up with this release?
 
I got the pool of question finalized, just wiating for the label to set confirm it...
here's the questions, as you can see it's a collection of ones you guys helped me out with along with a couple that I threw in...
