Why this name?
It just happened.
Do you play live?
Yes we play live, anywhere. It is the best feeling in the world everytime all the time...
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The internet helps local bands and unsigned bands get their names out and expand their fanbase.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
We'd sign to any label that wouldn't interfere with the process in which me make music. We'd sign to a label that cares about making music, not "pushing units". Music is about music, not numbers.
