This experience, however, has led to much creative release and is one explanation as to why Redefine's front person appears very worldly. "I have been through some stuff in my life," explains Pete sounding like a rock star in the twilight stages of his career. You listen to songs nowadays by certain bands singing about their parent's divorce and these guys are twenty-seven when, in fact, that situation occurred when they were seven! My dad was in the army and we lived in Northern Ireland with the constant threat of him dying, but I'm not going to write a song about it. That was a long time ago and it didn't happen." There remains, however, a persistent element of frustration and inevitable loss (Daisy Chain) from the lyrics alone of Redefine's first single to suggest that there is much anger and fear running through the very heart of this band. "My lyrics are about the things I go through," says Pete. "There is some stuff in there that is weird but the lyrics make a lot of sense to me. I try and write about things that I feel strongly about." The roller-coaster ride that relationships can undoubtedly bring is something not lost on Redefine's lead singer. Some detractors will, no doubt, ridicule such intense feelings from someone so young but when you consider the early work of Roddy Frame, Michael Stipe and present influence, Daryl Palumbo, who is overburdened with unrequited love, the emotional complexities trawling through Redefine's debut single are a matter to be embraced because such songwriters are a rare commodity in the present climate.
