Lyrically we tried to just not be the same as a lot of the other crap that is out there right now.

I really didn't think about song writing.

We just wanted to get as far away from the rap-rock scene as possible, because its been done and other bands do it better than us anyway.

We knew that we wanted to play heavy music but I hadn't gotten into melody and things like that.
