CUTE CUTE DEATH Online Interview


Hey guys. Hope that you're all doing well. Today we get to learn about the guys from CUTE CUTE DEATH who have got a bright future ahead of them. If you like your music to be on the more post-hardcore then definitely check these boys out: 

How did you guys meet one another?  
Johnny and Wayne moved over from South Africa as a band but needed a new vocalist and found me (Niko) by placing an advert online... We got jamming for a bit and then things didn't work out with some of the members, so the very long search for new members started which took years of many tedious attempts, some were great though but just didn’t work out in the end. Wayne then came across Ricky and Rob who had known each other from school and it all just started to glue and come together... The rest is history!  

How was the band name created?  
The name came from a friend....long story! But while watching planet earth, where whales were circling a penguin and eventually did the inevitable and she commented "I can't watch it anymore, it's just like...Cute, Cute...Death!" I was hooked on the idea of this odd name and mentioned it a few times, and we all then thought it is odd enough to stand out and works with what we feel we sound like!  

How would you describe the music your band creates?  
A sound where we are not afraid to break the rules but the same time, deep and full of hidden meanings...we make music like flicking paint at canvases bringing our current state of mind we have at that time out within that particular song. What are some of the themes and messages that come across in your songs? angst, regrets, wisdom and foresight, figuring out where our place is in this world and feeling trapped and frustrated by this modern world filled with hierarchy.  

What are your plans for 2016? 

Play as many shows as we can, Release our debut album, hopefully with a distribution deal behind it (hint hint). Write new songs for album no.2, some more touring for definite and generally just try and rip up as many stages as we can while meeting awesome people/bands along the way!  

Where can people find you on social media? 

All usual online web hangs: facebook, twitter, instagram, periscope or you can go to our website www.cutecutedeath.com​ to find any info you need on us with all social links on there.  

Finally, if there was only one album you could listen to for the rest of your life which one would you choose and why? 

WOW! this is one of those questions that will get a different answer everyday it’s asked! Today i’ll answer this with an album all of us in this band love “​Alexisonfire ­ Crisis"
