In this new occasion we have the awesome opportunity to interview the Deathcore band Crafting The Conspiracy from USA, here we will let you their FACEBOOK PAGE to give them a like and follow them.We have nothing more to say, so enjoy this interview!

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

The band name originally came from our bassist Marcus Denzel Williams. One day while Marcus and I Josh Miranda were working for our high school summer program, we were discussing how we wanted to be in a band. We were coming up with names left and right for our future band we wanted to be in. Marcus pulled out his phone and within his phone he had a list of all the names he wanted to use. I came across some funny names while looking at his phone such as "Sons Of Sebek" which apparently meant "The God Of Alligators" haha. Finally I laid eyes on a name that I just couldn't stop talking about afterwards and that name was Crafting The Conspiracy.

2.Why did you want to play this genre?

We chose to play Melodic Death Metal because we feel that you can be technical and simple at the same time. Plus its dying out and we wanna be the ones to rekindle the flame for the genre. Every band now a days strive to be so techincal with their music its like whatever happen to just being "simple"? Whatever happen to wanting kids or anyone in general to say i wanna learn guitar from him or to give them that inspiration to even pick up a guitar?

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

Some of us did actually. Marcus Denzel Williams, Ryan Melendez, and I Josh Miranda have been really good friends for awhile now. It wasn't until after we graduated that we meant our other guitarist Sebastian Bracamontes and our drummer Gilbert Gonzales.

4. Each band member's favourite band?

Josh Miranda doesn't really have one. Ryan Melendez's favorite band is anyone really from the Metallica and Iron Maiden era. Marcus Williams's favorite band is Between The Buried And Me Or Opeth. Sebastian Bracamontes's favorite band is The Black Dahlia Murder, and finally Gilbert Gonzalez's favorite band is either Deftones or The Mars Volta.

5. Who or what inspires you to write songs?

There are many things that really inspire this band to write music as a whole. There's just too many to name. We're pretty much all around guys when it comes to writing music.

6. Where was your last gig?

Our last gig was in Lubbock, Texas @Backstage with Lorna Shore, Sirens And Sailors, The Plot In You, and last but not least Destiny Awaits.

7. Where would you like to act?

There are many places where we would love to play! We'd love to play Budokan Arena in Japan, the Wacken Open Air Fesival in germany, the Download Festival in england, The Summer Slaughter Tour, and many more!!!

8. Whom would you like to feature with?

We'd love to have Travis Ryan or even Rings Of Saturn's own Ian Bearer in a song! There are many artists and bands we can name right off the back that we'd love to be featured on or have them featured in one of our songs. Again theres just too many to name haha.

9. Whom not?

There's not really anybody that we wouldn't want to be in our songs or that we wouldnt mind being featured on.

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

None of us do, but even though we have played so many shows we still do indeed get nervous. Our tip for beginners would be to go up there and have fun. DO NOT under an circumstances stop playing or make it noticible when you mess up. JUst go with the flow and have fun no matter what reaction you get after your set.

Many bands have Inspired us. It ranges from Between The Buried And Me to Lorna Shore, to Iron Maiden, Metallica, The Black Dahlia Murder, Deftones, Aborted, and many many more.
