How did you pick the band name?

There are so many bands out there with crazy names or the name is already taken. The real real way we picked the band name is going to be kept under wraps, but we have found another band on the east coast with the same name! Too bad we have it copywritten!

How would your define your sound?

Our sound is a mixture of many things. We might be brothers but we all come from different areas is what we like to listen to and what we like to play. Basically, our views on how we think it should sound clash but we find a medium point. So far we have been told we sound like Muse, coldplay, radiohead type, with U2, The Doors, and many other bands we personally don't think we sound like.

Describe your creative process for writing and composing music?

Charles (vocals/guitar) will bring in material and then Destin(drums) and Brett (bass) will change what they think is best for song. With all the different styles the band has we have tons of different views to work the song to make it unique from the others. I also can't give away all the secrets!

If you guys were to play with another band, which would it be?

There is so many to pick from. Destin says MUSE, Charles would probably say The Cure, and Brett might say which ever band has the hottest fans!

Where / how often / how do you guys practice?

Charles house, twice a week. Spare bedroom!

Finally, why do men have nipples?

Men have nipples because it's easier for aliens to get to the milk glands through men than having to go through their anus. Think about it.
