Tell us a li le as he visit to Colombia? We are all really excited to play in Bogota, I(Brian), have been to a lot of places in Colombia once before and just like many things in my life my outlook to this world has changed for me, in a good way. Bringing our music to a different country has been something we have always wished to do as musicians in the realm of Metal. It is no more than a dream-come true for us. As we are going to be in South America we have heard the reputa on of being a metal head from there. We are so excited that we actually decided to stay a few more days to see the city. I myself am exited to see the city a second me and experience it with my best friends and friends in Bogota! Tell us about the metal fes val where you par cipated in the US? And what is the experience? Can you tell us speaking the lyrics of ROBOCROP? Sure, the song is basically describing a new form of Marijuana developed and what happens because of this new development, a new breed of destruc ve weed that develops a mind of its own. “This crop, becoming more than weed. This crop, engineered from a seed. A new bud, A new breed, Feeding me. Mutated into a new being! Smoke filled carcass ro ng, exposure to malignance, prisoner to this session, cannabinolic obsession.

We never stop from rot! This crop, becoming more than weed. This crop, engineered from a seed. A new bud, A new breed, Feeding me. Mutated into a new being!” Tell us about the songwri ng process for the band? We all have our own ideas and lyrics put into all the songs we write. Alex has wri en a majority of the lyrics for songs but there are also instances that we have all added our own ideas into a song. I myself have added my own flavor and actually wrote the song “Blunt Forced Trauma” and Ryan wrote for “Vlad the Inhaler”. As far as wri ng lyrics for a song we usually write the lyrics into the song a er we have accomplished rehearsing the song at prac ce. We are always trying to find different ideas centered on some brutal way of smoking weed while we mix in themes of internal turmoil, hatred, and brutality We have done a few Fes vals the first one we did was the “Severed Records”, “Brutality Reigns Fest 2” with headliner Putrid Pile! This was an unbelievable experience and led to us becoming great friends with the band “Abdicate” from the Rochester New York area. We s ll do exclusive shows with them when they or we travel out of state. We also became good friends with Barre of “Severed Records” which led ul mately to him asking us to play the same Fes val the following year. All the obvious classics such as the “Alien Quadrilogy”, “The Predator” movies. “RoboCop, 1 & 2”. All the “Friday the 13 th” classics & “Nightmare on Elm Street”, ”Halloween”, “Army of Darkness”, “13 Ghosts”, “Hobo with a Shotgun” “Dead Alive” “Day of The Dead” which we included into our album as a clip in the introduc on track. The track is actually a clip of “Reefer Madness”, an American Marijuana Propaganda movie and two different scenes from “Day of the Dead” played together simultaneously… as for more movies the list could go on an on but we love just about any and every crazy movie you could think of and we feel these
