I think that every band tries to mature their sound through their existence, you know?
A lot of big labels will just sign bands like a write off.
You have to make sure that your assets and your back is protected before you make any big decisions.
Hopefully people can look at our band and see that we're a heavy rock band. We're definitely not a metal band, but we're a band that focuses on meaningful lyrics and melody.
I really didn't think about song writing.
Musicians don't respect a lot of the stuff that is on TRL and a lot of musicians think that stuff on the radio is not good musically so when musicians say that they like us it obviously feels good.
