![]() I always like to listen to songs that I listened when I was a kid that got me pumped up then. Lisa Gerrard from Dead Can Dance is my favorite singer as a singer – so I’m really widely spread open with music choices.ĬH: Before the show, I like to listen to music and all of it’s to get pumped up. ![]() MB: I love everything from Deftones, to Pantera to M83. Who do you guys listen to and why do you like them? What bands really inspire you from a musical standpoint and also from a music listening standpoint. We’re happy where we’re at and what we’re doing and we’re happy they’re happy. We wish them the best and all the success in the world. MB: No, they’re playing tomorrow, we won’t be here but you know we respect the memory that we had with them and everything that we did with them. You lost some members recently to James Durbin and those guys happen to be here, is that awkward for you guys at all? MB: Yeah, it’s the darkest album we’ve ever done. It’s usually the song as a whole and then I feel the vibe and energy of what we wrote together and then we kind of come up with it from that.ĬH: She’ll skit-scat over some ideas and get an idea of what we want to do and then she’ll go back and write her lyrics to that. MB: I do the lyrics and things like that but it’s usually after. When you write, do the lyrics typically come first or do you guys start the music and build the lyrics off of that? MB: And it’ll all start as kind of one big piece. I actually reference death a lot in the album but it mean rebirth, it’s not necessarily like “I want to die” but I think it all organically does come together, always making sense one way or another.ĬH: Sometimes we’ll have an idea going in that we’ll follow and sometimes we’ll start doing it and the idea will come while we’re working on it. It was kind of like a loose theme that ‘Blood’ represents kind of like the blood of the Phoenix, as in all death represents something new. MB: Well I’m kind of a psycho I like things to thread together and have themes. MB: It sounds like we graduated high school and now we’re ready for the big world.ĬH: We’re in college now! Did you have a concept for the album first or how does the writing process work for you? ![]() I think they’re gonna be really excited for it, it’s so unique and it’s different than anything we’ve done before but it’s heavier yet more accessible. It’s going to surprise a lot of our fans but in a good way. You guys have the new album ‘Blood’ coming out in August, what can people expect on this album that’s maybe different from the last albums that you have done?Ĭhris Howorth: I think they can expect to hear it sounding like In This Moment but it’s totally different. The best thing is seeing friends and people we’ve met along the way, it’s so awesome and we’re just happy to be here. Maria Brink: No, we’ve done Mayhem, Ozzfest and all those big festivals so we’re used to that aspect. This is you first year at Rock on the Range, what are you guys most looking forward to and is it different being at a festival like this? ![]()
