Tempting Fate - Interview

Hey, Breathing The Core fans, here we bring you a new interview to the Metalcore band Tempting Fate from USA. We have nothing more to say, so enjoy this interview and also like their FACEBOOK PAGE cause these band is epic.

1.Where did you get the idea for the band name, you planned it or came out just like that?      

1. We got the idea for the band name randomly one day. We had been trying to come up with a good name and at the time we were doing a lot of traveling back and forth from Los Angeles to San Francisco. After enough close calls and near death experiences, we began feeling like we were tempting fate all the time.  We thought it would make a great band name and from then on it just stuck with us. 

2.Why did you want to play this genre?   

We've always listened to 'screaming' music since we were about 11 and 12 years old. Slipknot was pretty much all we would listen to before we heard of bands like As I Lay Dying and All That Remains. When we first started making music we went a little mellower and after recording a lot, we realized we needed to get back to our roots, back to what got us into listening to this type of music. It just has so much more energy. Its fun to play, its in your face, and best of all, it pisses a lot of people off! 

3. Did you know each other before the band was formed?   

Well Shane and I are brothers so we've know each other pretty much forever. We met Matt and Austin through Craigslist actually. It's a great website to connect with random people!

4. Each band member favourite band?   

Cory- "I have too many favorites, I listen to everything! uhhhhh Suicide Silence." 
Shane-  "I'd say my weekly favorite right now is Upon A Burning Body." 
Matt- "Definitely Guns N Roses, always has been!" 
Austin- "Ehhh I don't really have a favorite but I listen to Wintersun more than anything else."

5. Who or what inspires you to write songs?  

Life in general is what inspires us to write songs. All the triumphs and turmoils, frustration, hatred, happiness, sadness. It all has a contributing factor. 

6. Where was your last gig?   

Our last gig was at Molly Maolnes in Hollywood. It's a small little place and our friend's band asked us to play there with them so we did. 

7. Where would you like to act?   

We would like to perform all aver the world. We'd love to bring our music to every damn inch of this planet! 

8. Whom would you like to feature with?   

I think it would be awesome to feature with Suicide Silence or Bring Me The Horizon. This bands are pretty fitting to our new music which we are about to release in April.

9. Whom not?   

We wouldn't like to feature with Britney Spears. She's kind of a has been since she shaved her head. 

10. Any of you has ever suffered from stage fright? Any tip for beginners on how to beat that?  

Oh definitely! If you aren't getting stage fright, you're on some heavy drugs! It's totally normal to get stage fright, its a healthy fear. As for getting over it, believe in yourself. The audience is there to watch YOU, so remember that and own the fucking stage! 

11. What bands have inspired you the most?   

I would say Avenged Sevenfold has inspired us the most. Allthough we don't particularly take a liking to their new music, they are a great role model. They are extremely professional, very talented, and not afraid to change. They have evolved so much from 'Sounding The Seventh Trumpet' and I think that is a good way to stay relevant in music today.  

12. What's the weirdest thing a fan has ever asked you for?   

The weirdest thing a fan has asked for would be a home address. I admire the courage to ask but really?? You think I'm going to give you my home address so you can break in, steal my shit and eat my pop tarts??!! I don't think so.    

13. What do you think of your fans?  

We love our fans!! Without them, we'd just be a bunch of white boys making music. Fans are the single most important aspect of the music industry. 

14. What do you think of our site?   

We think your site is awesome!! I think it's great what you do to help bands and we are very thankful for the opportunity to answer your questions.  

15. Something to add?  

Check out our new album 'Illusions' coming out April 11, 2014!! You guys are gonna love it!!! The first single "Get Up" is already available on iTunes and YouTube.
