Where in Finland are you from?
(Michael Faith)
We’re from different towns, but I would say we’re Jyväskylä based band.
(Joonas)
Yeah, our home base lies in Jyväskylä.
How would you describe your band for those who don’t know you?
(Michael Faith)
Post-hardcore emo for big arenas as well as chart listings.
(Joonas)
Band which is not afraid of anything.
When did you form as a group?
(Michael Faith)
It was May 2011 when I talked with Söör Hector, and we decided to do this. Day after that I called to my very good friend Joonas and that was it. BCBtS was a real deal. We did our first songs with our producer Teemu Liekkala and through big considerations we asked R2, Rändi and Pablo to join us.
What was the inspiration for your recent album?
(Michael Faith)
We don’t have an album yet, but our first songs are about anxiety, suicide, death, money, drugs, murders and other cheery things, hahhaaa!
What other releases do you have?
(Michael Faith)
Like I said we don’t have an album yet, but our EP is coming out in November 2011(????) and album… maybe April 2012.
What is your favorite song on your most recent album?
(Michael Faith)
My favorite song so far is “Rade Kava Adva”. It’s not even ready yet, but that one is my favorite. I have to write rest of the lyrics for “Rade Kava Adva” and then it’s ready. I love what Hector and Teemu did with it!!
(Joonas)
Same here, it’s something so GOOD! But all the songs are important to me, in different ways.
Do you have any gigs coming up?
(Michael Faith)
Yes. December 2011 – June 2012 there’s gonna be something like 20-30 gigs in six different countries. If you want us to your festivals, club or home, please contact to Mr. Tuomas Rajala / tuomas.rajala@sonymusic.com / +358 44 0875 594.
What’s your favorite type of venue to play?
(Michael Faith)
There has to be at least 500 Crowheads (that’s how I call our fans)!!
(Joonas)
And after a few or more gigs, we just put zeros after 500!
If you could play anywhere in the world this week, where would it be?
(Michael Faith)
Not in this week, but I would love to play in Uproar Tour later in August with Avenged Sevenfold, Escape the Fate, Bullet for My Valentine, The Black Cloud Collective etc…
Do you have a Website, MySpace, Facebook, Twitter etc?
(Michael Faith)
Facebook yes, and all the others are coming!
(Joonas)
Yeah, we have to make sure everything works properly and looks good!
What are your influences as a band?
(Michael Faith)
I speak for myself: Avenged Sevenfold, Mötley Crüe, Escape the Fate, Atreyu, Bullet for My Valentine, Guns N’ Roses, Slipknot and Destroy Rebuild Until God Shows (best album in 2011!!!). When we talked about starting a new band with Hector, I think Escape the Fate was the main thing.
People who enjoy your music tend to like what other bands?
(Michael Faith)
Escape the Fate, Atreyu, Bullet for My Valentine, Falling In Reverse, theFALLEN, Avenged Sevenfold, A Day To Remember, Paramore…
(Joonas)
And many more. I do hope that everyone can enjoy our music!
Are you signed to a label?
(Michael Faith)
Wait few weeks… There is something BIG going on… But nothing is sure until it’s sure. That’s one thing I have learned in this business.
(Joonas)
Exactly the same words here with MF, been around in music biz so long! But this time everything looks better than before.
Where do you think you’ll be as a band in 5 years?
(Michael Faith)
Touring with Avenged Sevenfold and Escape the Fate.
(Joonas)
Still breaking the silence and yeah touring with those guys. And I think that we’ll be a much better band!
