Conflict Of Interest
We are Conflict of Interest.
If you like computer recordings and bad vocals, you've come to the right place! C.O.I. is a two piece band consisting of Kevin J. (Vocalist, Thumb Snapper, Whistler, Chuck A. Sass & Sons Rep., Owner of Mullet Inc. and OptimumStealth Inc.) and Kyle C. (Guitarist, Alcoholic, Moron.)
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Here's our musical history:
1983 - Kyle is born out of wedlock.
1985 - I am born to be a great singer.
2001 - I formed a band called "The Smoothies" (changed to "The SmoothieZ" because someone already had our great band name.) I was in this band with a different Kyle, who I make fun of on our debut CD constantly. We formed this band to spite The Munchies.
2002 - Conflict of Interest is born (to spite The Smoothiez/Munchies.)
Summer 2003 - Conflict of Interest released their debut CD, "F***in' Music To F***-A-Magigga To"
2003 - The Smoothiez broke up due to professional differences (Kyle likes Billy Idol and William Shatner and I hate them both. It was simply too much to overcome.)
2004 - C.O.I. broke up for a while in early 2004 before reuniting around September 2004. While we were apart, we started some solo projects.
Kyle's was known as - Metal Oscillating Sprinkler Head with Flow Control.
Mine was known as - The Megalomaniacal Gravitational Fluctuating Reverberating Isotropic Secular Parallax Luminosity Factorial Nano-Tubular Analytical Arduous Artillery Project.
Both bands were very short-lived.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
If by "live" you mean in the basement on a computer microphone, then yes, I suppose we do play live.
Your musical influences
Well, nobody really influenced us at all. We just wanted to piss a lot of people off and I think it worked.
What equipment do you use?
Kyle uses a guitar.
I use my (nonexistant) vocal abilities. No equipment necessary.
Anything else?
NO!
