Badflower has just released their debut album "Ok, I'm Sick" and let me tell you- it's the rock album you've been waiting for.

With the album release date coming closer and closer, I sat down with Josh to ask him some questions about the album, what their fans can expect throughout the year and what Josh wants you to take away from the album.

The new album, which is set for release on February 22 is the band's debut album which features their number one song "Ghost". They're currently touring and won't be done until the end of July, and that's just the beginning.

Odyssey: What can we expect from "OK, I'm Sick? What do you want people to take away from this? Or is this something you want people to think about objectively?

Josh: I don't want people to take it objectively, because if they do I'll feel like I've failed. I want people to recognize that it's a rock album and as something that matters right now.

O: What can you tell us about "Ghost"?

J: Basically, "Ghost" was just a way for me to say exactly what I was feeling in the moment. I wanted to be as direct as possible and I didn't really think about how people would react.

O: What are your biggest inspirations? Do you have any dream collaborations?

J: It's all very modern and every concept is an observation about what's happening in our modern society. It's kind my take and my opinion on people and myself that kind of drives the inspiration. As for collaborations, I haven't really thought about it. Dawes is really good though.

O: Where would you like to see Badflower a year from now? What can we expect from the coming year? Anything that you've been working on? (Besides the album of course).

J: We're already moving to the next album.

O: Has there been a specific moment last year that felt really pinnacle?

J: Definitely the title of number one rocks song in the country. Milestone moments haven't hit us in a big way becasue we haven't had some time off. Also, we're just not done yet.

O: What does your creative process look like? Is there anything that you find you do every time you write a new song?

J: Everything kind of happens at the same time. The melody and a phrase might come together at the same time and that's when you start to realize what the song is about. I mean, something that I wrote ten years ago can take on a totally different meaning now depending on what I wanted to do with it.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
