Why this name?
We were looking for something that embodied the idea of the union of opposites - male and female, dark and light - as a path towards transformation.
Do you play live?
Not yet as a band. We are still putting this project together.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The internet allows a lot of music to get out to the public that would otherwise not be heard. It frees a lot of artists from the commercial restraints that drive the traditional record industry.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
A distribution deal maybe, but we are not about to have someone else try to dictate our direction.
Band History:
Currently operating as a duo and developing material.
Your influences?
Iron Maiden, Judas Preist, Metallica, Rush, Queensryche, Lacuna Coil and many more.
