I'll speak for myself, i don't know about the rest of the members of seraphim, but yeah (by the way, i'm the skinny, pathetic guitarist)
Did we promote ourselves too much, yeah, and looking back, it was kinda gay. The real downside to it is that I think we turned off a lot of people who would've really liked our music.
The fact that we're excited and enthusiastic about being is a band is (i think) understandable. If you're in a band and the music and performing don't excite you, you shouldn't be in a band.
The Mad Cow Boys, they fuckin' rock my world, and i think they deserved to win the BotB. I'm hopin' we'll get to see some original stuff here in the future.
Wearing the tshirts. Yeah, i can see how thats gay, but i'm poor, and i am also a fan of our music. Hell, why would i be in a band i wasn't the fan of the music. If you aren't, then you are either in it only for the chicks or only for the money. I personally haven't seen either in years, but our music still excites me.
I would like to thank the people who compared us to Tool. They are gods, but we are definately and most certainly not.
Do we plan on getting rich and famous or something like that? Fuck no. That'd be cool as shit, but it's so unrealistic. You wanna know what i'm in it for? Making music. The only think better is making love (not that i'd know, i've just heard.)
If you heard us in the past, disregard it. We have matured so much as a band. A lot of our early stuff did sound similar, but our newer stuff is so much more diverse. Give it a chance. We have also written a ton more shit these past few breaks. It blows our old stuff out of the water.
Please, if you get the chance,come see us play. I don't care if you want to fucking slit our throats for how much we suck, just give our music an honest, open-minded chance. Oh well if it's not your style, if thats whats up with you, then thats cool, i just wish people would be more supportive of music in general, not just their personal style of music. If you feel the need to, go ahead and hate the people, at least distinguish what you're out to hate, the people or the music.
