MUSIC How was your approach to the world of music? In our early days, like at 10 or so, all of us got into rock and especially punk rock music through friends, the older brother and other people around us with great taste. A few years later we felt the need to create something like that, after listening to bands like blink-182 or Sum 41. What people do you consider as your greatest influences? It's definitely the people around us who inspire us to do our thing. One day it's your best friend, saying "dang, that concert was ill, and your music really gets me going", another day you feel the need to write a song for someone who helped you through bad times. And maybe sometimes to get some anger into a song instead of ripping someone's head off.

What is the greatest satisfaction that music has given you so far? In the last few weeks and months we played a lot of concerts for people who weren't familiar with our music at all. At every single concert we reached that point where everybody started to shake and dance to our sound, and at the end of the concert we had a bunch of sweaty, satisfied new fans in front of us. That's the most awesome thing to see, when people who don't know your songs fall in love with your tune within minutes. How far would you be willing to go to achieve your professional goals? There already have been some things we need to get out of the way at times, may it be a whole lot of your spare time for your private stuff or some family business you couldn't attend to. But every single day we feel the need to create music, record big and energetic songs and play them at crowded concerts, so there is nothing that feels like a choice to make for us. Only the sky and health are our limits here.
