| HAVE YOU GUYS PLAYED A LOT OF SHOWS? WITH WHO & WHERE? Wayne: We don't play out very often, but do when a good oppertunity shows itself. We've played with DISMEMBER, MALEVOLENT CREATION, MORBID ANGEL, UFO, IRON MAIDEN... Jim L.: I forgot about the UFO & MAIDEN shows. When did that happen? Musta missed it...Fuck!!!...Also KATAKLYSM, NILE, KRISIUN, INCANTATION. ANY UNUSUAL TOURING STORIES YOU'D CARE TO SHARE? Jim L.: We really don't get out much... Wayne: No. Dora shit his pants one time in Jersey, though. WHAT IS THE BEST & WORST THING ABOUT BEING IN A BAND? Wayne: The best part about being in a band is just rocking out on your songs with 3 other guys who love Metal as much as you do. The worst thing would have to be sending out a shitload of promos & not getting signed. Jim L.: I thought we were a 5 piece...It's great to do the shit we wrote & watch people dig it. It sucks not getting all the free beer, drugs & sex that we desereve. It is also expensive when no one really likes you. Plus it takes up a lot of time. Jim C.: Best-It's the best thing in the world...Worst? Being able to excel in other areas of life, but that's OK. WHAT DO YOU DO OUTSIDE OF WORK FOR SOULLESS? Wayne: A few other bands... DEAD OF NIGHT, SPAWN OF SATAN... deliver pizza, suck tits. Jim L.: I work in the sign business & pretty much waste way too much of my free time doing stupid shit that envolves goats, pentagrams & little plastic skulls. I just plain suck. Jim C.: I fix guitars & drink beer. ARE YOU INTO ANY OTHER STYLES OF MUSIC BESIDES WHAT YOU PLAY & WHO ARE SOME OF THE BANDS YOUR CURRENTLY INTO? Wayne: 70's Rock - recently been getting into CAMEL, GLASSHARP, BOC & Chuck mangione. Jim C.: Blues rules! YARDBIRDS, CAKE, BANG, AC/DC, Johnny Winter. Jim L.: I worship BLUE OYSTER CULT. I also get into some Rock-A-Billy kinda stuff: Eddie Cochran, Buddy Holly, Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins. I like some Hardcore like GBH, THE EXPLOITED, THE ACCUSED, D.R.I. & NOFX. WHAT'S THE ONE CD YOU OWN THAT YOUR A LITTLE EMBARRASSED TO ADMIT YOU OWN IT? Jim C.: Harry Connick Jr., "When Harry Met Sally" Soundtrack. Jim L.: I'm not really embarrassed by anything I own, but do get made fun of a lot for Sinead O'Connor-"The Lion & The Cobra" & THE CURE-"Disintergration". Wayne: Every CD I own is good. DO YOU REMEMBER WHERE YOU WERE & WHAT YOU WERE DOING WHEN YOU FIRST FOUND OUT ABOUT THE WORLD TRADE CENTER ATTACK ON 9-11-01 IN NEW YORK? ANT THOUGHTS ON THIS TRAGEDY? Wayne: Apparently it happened when I was driving to work. I found out when I got there. I didn't actually see the footage until later that evening. It was terrible. Jim C.: I was at work. An eye for an eye. Jim L.: I was getting ready for work & listening to the Howard Stern Show when they started talking about what was happening. I turned on CNN & saw the second plane hit the second tower. I was filled with shock & intense anger. There are so many stupid people who out of their laziness, ignorance or both devote themselves to ridiculous religions. All religion is to blame. These people will find out that although we as Americans may seem at odds with each other we are proud & united in our desire for freedom. We will kill them in ways they can not even imagine, & that is very good. WHAT ARE YOUR VIEWS ON THE FOLOOWING TOPICS: SEX, DRUGS, RELIGION, POLITICS & THE MUSIC INDUSTRY? Jim C.: Sex-would like some. Drugs-not for me (except beer). Religion-don't care. Politics-don't care. Music Industry-be your own industry. Wayne: I really don't see much action in any of these catagories. My life is not affected by sex, drugs, religion, politics or the music industry. Jim L.: I don't get much sex, probably because I am busy doing drugs. I am very religious about beer, pot & Metal, but not much else. Politics are a necessary evil that i keep a sidward glance towards. The music Industry has too much to do with industry & not enough to do with music. |
