who is the biggest influence in your musical career?

That's a really hard question. All of us have a ton of different influences which is a good thing. I think the band as a whole is definitely heavily influenced by the NYHC scene and I'd say for Backtrack that's probably our biggest influence, and gambling.

What is the new year hopefully bringing you guys?

Today we're leaving for a European tour with Terror, First Blood, & Lionheart. After that we're doing 5 days in Canada with Gravemaker, Wisdom In Chains, and Expire. Besides that we're writing for an LP that will come out later this year on Reaper Records. We're also playing United Blood in April.

What is your favorite part of playing shows?

My favorite part personally would have to be able to play in different parts of the US and even different countries and have kids appreciate what you do and your music. It's awesome knowing that hardcore is a worldwide movement and there's kids everywhere that appreciate it like you and me do.

do you any plan to be going on any tours?

Yeah the few things I mentioned previously. Once the LP drops we'll be touring on it non-stop.

Can you tell us more about you show at Bergens point country club on jan. 8th

I answered this interview a little late because that show happened this weekend. Regardless the show was amazing. All the bands got great responses and Long Island proved that it's definitely one of the best scenes on the East Coast. It was awesome to see so many people come out for a good cause without any drama or stupid shit.
