1- Hello, thanks for answering to our questions. What are you guys currently up to?
Hello and thank you for spending a moment with us! We’re currently preparing to release our album this March 18th, and working on finalizing some dates for a 6 day West Coast tour
2- First off, could you make some history of the band?
Our band started in 2011 which began work on our 1st 3 song album “Destroyer”. After a lineup change, we started work on writing songs for our upcoming second album, taking some time to also work on releasing a split 7” and playing everywhere that would have us.
3- How could you describe your sound?
We are basically a rock band. We use elements from every single genre that we all individually are influenced by but at the core of it, we’re just a loud rock band.
4- What are the band’s main musical influences?
In no order, they would be: Neurosis, Killing Joke, Voivod, Sepultura, Motorhead, Pink Floyd, Cocteau Twins, Popul Vuh, Tangerine Dream, Philip Glass and many many more
5- How is the feedback for your new album being?
We’ve been writing this album for about a year and a half if not more, so we’ve had the chance to play some of these songs live. Response has been great so far! Aside from that, we’ve had a few people listen to the test presses with us and they enjoyed it just as much as we did so that’s a good sign
6- And are your personally satisfied with the final outcome?
We are of course, our own worst critics but everything that was included on the recording of this album is done with intent. We’re extremely satisfied that the end version of these songs is what people will be able to hear from us.
7- How could you describe this opus in just 3 words?
Passionately, self destructive.
8- How has the production process for your new release been?
As far as the recording part of it, we worked with Derek Donley once again, who has gone above and beyond what we could’ve expected from him. It’s always nerve wracking for us to go and commit something of our own making like this but it’s a good way of exorcising the emotion we all had been holding onto, if not for release then at least for understanding of that emotion.
9- And how do you use to work on the songwriting?
As with any of our songs, there’s a primary idea that’s brought into our collective space, and then we all add to it accordingly. There’s an overall ‘story’ we’re trying to tell that hasn’t quite shown itself to us but we’re learning chapter by chapter what that story will be.
10 – Finally, what are you near-future plans?
After album release, we’re going to continue with our live shows for as long as we can until time comes for us to record again. We’re planning some splits with some exciting bands that we’re personally fans of. Work has already started on the writing fo album III so we’ll continue that for as long as we need to until the album 
decides to let us know it’s done, then we repeat the entire process!
11- That’s all from our side, thanks again for taking your time to answer our questions. If you now want to add some final words; feel free to do it.
Thank you again for taking some time with us! Hopefully our music is able to connect with some part of anybody whom gives us the time. Thank you again! Together, we will live forever!
