 ALTSOUNDS - Lets start at the very beginning...... who are you and what takes up your time in the band?
ADAM - I am Adam. The guitar, beats and voice takes up most of my time if that makes any sense at all.
If you had to describe the sound of your band to someone who had never heard you before using only mixtures of colours how would you do that?
Buy a 64 pack of Crayola crayons. The kind your parents were always to cheap to buy you when you were in Elementary school. Dump them all out on the pavement on a hot Sunday in July. Let them melt.
What components, in your opinion, make a great album?
Pro tools, auto-tune, that guy who makes Korn albums, Queen Latifah, the rock.
Is there any band in the current music scene that you admire for what they do?
"Of course there are," he said. Anyone who doesn't use any of the things mentioned above.
If you could play your album to any musician, living or dead, to get their view on your work, who would it be and why?
Every time I have to sit with someone and watch them listen to our record, I pace and sweat and think about things. It's so very awkward for me. Now picture this: Thom Yorke being forced to listen to a record by a band he's never heard of while this 5'6 pasty-white American paces and sweats and thinks about things. It's crazy.
If a movie was ever made of your life, who would you want to play you and your band?
Not Hayden Christiansen. God, please not Hayden Christiansen.
Mike - James VanDerBeek
Goose - Cary Grant
Binks - Jodie Foster, obviously
David - Academy Award winner Forrest Whittaker
All the past members of Fear Before - Academy Award winner Forrest Whittaker
If you were not playing music what direction would your life have taken instead?
Wizardry. Spells. To be more specific, magic.
If it all ended tomorrow what would you want to be remembered for?
The people whose lives I've changed for the better. The people who wouldn't be here if it wasn't for me. Curing Cancer and Aids at the same time.
If you could impart any advice on younger bands trying to make it in the industry what would it be?
Go to college. Be a doctor. Invest. Do the stock market thing. or use aforementioned wizard tricks like auto-tune.
Is there anything else I may have missed that you wish to share?
Our new album comes out in October. It's really good!
