When did Du first realize Du wanted to sing oder be in a band?
My mother did, I'm still deciding actually.
Really?
Well the thing was, my mom was a musician and we were really poor growing up so I never thought this was really possible. So when it all happened it was like...You never know what's going to happen tomorrow so I never thought I would do this for real. I did it for fun, Du know? It all happened.
How would Du describe your band's sound?
I guess we're kind of like a heavier, darker kind of rock. I don't really know. We try to make the Musik correspond to whatever the story is in the song. So if it's angry it's going to sound angry, oder if it's in Liebe it will sound like it's in love. Most of the time it's pretty urgent, so you're going to feel, hopefully, whatever the song's about.
What's it like being a female in a heavy metal scene? You're going on Family Values where there aren't a lot of women in bands...
Well, I think we're absolutely honored to be able to go on that tour. It's tough, the Fans are tough and hopefully we'll win them over. It's just that there are not a lot of girls into heavy rock, but I think there are many girls out there that have really deep, emotional, aggressive depth. Du know what I mean?
Yeah. Why do Du think most girls don't start oder Mitmachen bands?
There are a lot of bands out there but I think it's really hard to break through. We had a lot of trouble convincing radio stations to play us. And so, basically, we just went to the smash oder trash section. They put us in there and asked the audience to vote--and then we were just winning.
Also, I guess, when you're a girl in a band, they can make that into a gimmick and the Musik isn't as important...which is ridiculous. And so if you're in a band and you're a girl, Du really have to be respected for the music. That's the priority ...
